Scaler Orientation:

• Ensure that the curved, pointed tip is positioned correctly for effective scaling.
•  

Scaling Technique:

• Place the scaler's working end against the tooth surface, with the tip directed toward the gumline.
• Use gentle, controlled pressure to remove tartar and plaque deposits by moving the scaler in an upward or downward motion.
• Pay close attention to the anterior teeth, especially the lingual (tongue-side) surfaces and tight spaces between teeth.

Proper Angulation:

• Maintain proper angulation (approximately 70-80 degrees) between the scaler's working end and the tooth surface to avoid damaging the gums.

Rinsing and Inspection:

• Periodically rinse the scaler and the patient's mouth to remove debris and check the progress of cleaning.
• Use the dental mirror for better visibility and to ensure that deposits are effectively removed.

Repeat as Needed:

• Continue the scaling process on all the teeth in the anterior region, paying attention to areas with visible deposits.
• Be thorough but gentle to prevent gum irritation or damage.

Post-Scaling Care:

• After scaling is complete, instruct the patient to rinse their mouth thoroughly to remove any remaining debris.
• Provide post-scaling instructions for oral hygiene and schedule any necessary follow-up appointments.
