The 42-12 Tip Wear Guide is included with all 42-12 Scaler Fitting Tips. It helps you monitor the condition of your tips and determine when they need to be replaced.
Key Factors in Scaler Use
1. Tip wear will significantly reduce scaler performance as it will alter the ultrasonic frequency.
2. The ferrite rod must be tight - a loose or broken rod will cause poor or no vibration.
3. A correctly functioning tip used on a power setting of 3-4 lights will produce a coolant mist around the tip.
