De qué trata
Periodontal disease affects over 50% of adults worldwide and residual or burnished calculus is still commonly found after scaling procedures.
This lecture addresses the crucial question: Why does residual calculus persist despite treatment? Through clinical scenarios, Dr. Pattison explores common causes such as inadequate exploration, poor instrumentation technique, improper body positioning, and the use of dull or inappropriate tools.
Dr. Pattison emphasizes the importance of thorough debridement and the role of instrumentation in detoxifying root surfaces, and outlines clinical strategies to reduce subgingival calculus and biofilm to levels compatible with periodontal health, while aiming to minimize inflammation and bleeding.
In particular, this lecture covers the following topics:
- Common reasons for residual or burnished calculus after treatment
- Instrumentation errors and clinical challenges in deep pockets
- The importance of correct body positioning and sharp instruments
- The role of root debridement in reducing inflammation and maintaining periodontal health
