A Home Ultrasonic: A Dental Calculus Remover 

This dental tool is for stain and dental calculus. It is battery operated and comes with a USB port plug for a charger. It works through  vibrations to remove debris. The five adjustable intensity modes are from low to high and vibrate from 10,000-25,000 times per minute. This makes the metal tip easily remove the harder plaque like a jack hammer. The sides of the metal tip is what does the cleaning the blade part not the end of the tip. So when using place the sides on the tooth and not gouge with the tip. 

 

 

 

This is not meant to replace a routine professional dental cleaning but to tidy up the teeth between regular cleanings. It’s perfect for people who build calculus in abundance and whose lifestyle and diet contains stain causing mechanisms. If sensitivity is already present the vibration may cause more sensitivity especially if recession is involved.

There are a variety of brands and kits.
