This is for informational purposes only. For medical advice or diagnosis, consult a professional.

That definition describes adaptation.

Adaptation refers to the proper positioning of the working-end of the instrument against the tooth surface. This typically involves bringing the first 1-2 mm of the lateral surface of the working-end into contact with the tooth.

Proper adaptation is crucial for:

  • Effective calculus removal: It allows the instrument to contact and engage with the calculus deposit.
  • Minimizing tissue trauma: It helps to prevent the instrument from contacting and injuring the surrounding soft tissues.
  • Maintaining control: It provides a stable base for the instrument, allowing for more precise and controlled movements.

Without proper adaptation, effective instrumentation is not possible.
