2025-11-04
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>The removal of subgingival biofilm and calculus is vital in the successful treatment of periodontitis, which can primarily be achieved using hand and/or ultrasonic scalers. The present study aimed to compare hand instrumentation with ultrasonic instrumentation in a biofilm-calculus model.A multi-species mixture consisting of 11 bacterial strains was used to generate an initial calculus...
