WHY SHARPEN INSTRUMENTS?
Instruments should be kept as true as possible to their original design. Sharp instruments can reduce hand and wrist fatigue,
improve calculus removal, save time, improve tactile sensitivity, and minimize patient discomfort.
WHEN TO SHARPEN INSTRUMENTS?
Instruments should be sharpened before each use; however, please consider the following when deciding to sharpen instruments:
• Dull instruments require excessive pressure to remove calculus
• Dull instruments require multiple strokes to remove calculus
• Dull instruments do not “grab” or “bite”
• The number of uses between sharpening
• Evaluation of the cutting edge against a Delron
