• Patient Preparation: Greet and seat the patient comfortably in the dental chair. Explain the procedure to the patient to ensure their cooperation and comfort during the scaling process.
• Selecting the Correct Gracey Curette: Identify the correct Gracey curette, numbered 9/10, for the specific surface to be treated. Ensure that you have both the buccal and lingual curettes for comprehensive cleaning.
• Establishing Correct Instrument Grasp: Hold the Gracey curette in a modified pen grasp to ensure precise control and comfort during the procedure.
• Positioning the Curette: Position the curette's working end at a 0-40 degree angle to the tooth surface. For the buccal surface, position the curette on the outer side of the tooth. For the lingual surface, position the curette on the inner side of the tooth.
• Scaling Procedure: Gently insert the curette subgingivally (below the gum line) and adapt it to the tooth surface. Use a controlled, shaving motion to remove plaque and calculus from the root surface. Work systematically, moving the curette around the entire surface of the tooth.
• Rinsing and Evaluation: Rinse the treatment area regularly to remove debris and assess the progress of scaling. Continue scaling until the root surface is clean and smooth.
• Post-Procedure Instructions: Instruct the patient on proper oral hygiene practices and aftercare to maintain the results of the scaling procedure. Schedule any necessary follow-up appointments for ongoing periodontal maintenance.
