Let’s talk instrument selection. 🦷✨
Back in my training days, it was all about Hu-Friedy. We learned how to sharpen our instruments and care for them properly - it was a fundamental skill.
Fast forward to today, and there’s a wide array of scaler brands, handle designs, and blade types to choose from. So, what’s the best option?
Truth is - it’s personal.
Handle weight, grip, sharpen or sharpen fee and balance all matter. But above all? Sharpness of the blade is king. 👑
A sharp, well-adapted blade in skilled hands will always outshine a dull instrument - regardless of the brand.
And remember - refinement takes time and effort.
Ask for help - find a mentor if you’re struggling. Practice on extracted teeth or tooth models. Revisit your anatomy knowledge.
Keep learning, keep sharp - your skills and your instruments.
What do you use?
