Medigy: Dental Instruments

Dental instruments are specialized tools used by dentists, dental hygienists, and other oral healthcare professionals to diagnose, treat, and prevent oral health problems. These instruments are used to examine the teeth and gums, remove plaque and tartar, and repair or replace damaged teeth.

Some common types of dental instruments include:

Scalers and curettes: These instruments are used to remove plaque and tartar from teeth. Scalers have a sharp, thin tip that is used to scrape away plaque and tartar, while curettes have a scoop-like shape and are used to remove larger deposits of tartar.

Probe: A probe is a thin, pointed instrument that is used to measure the depth of periodontal pockets, which can indicate the presence of gum disease.

Mirrors: Mirrors are used to visualize hard-to-see areas of the mouth, such as the back of the mouth, and to aid in the placement of restorative materials.

Dental drills: Dental drills are used to remove decay from teeth and to prepare teeth for fillings and other restorative procedures.

Forceps: Forceps are used to grasp and manipulate teeth during procedures such as extractions.

Excavators: Excavators are used to remove decay from teeth and prepare teeth for fillings.

Pliers: Pliers are used to hold and manipulate small dental instruments, such as needles and suture thread.

Dental instruments are typically made of stainless steel, which is durable and easy to sterilize. They are often reusable, but disposable instruments are also available
