POUSSE BAGUE - SCALER MINI

Used for positioning and adapting wire and metal bands on teeth. Sharpening: Sickle scalers have a pointed tip and, therefore, the blade is held straight on the Sharpening Stone as it nears the tip. See more info and details on Sharpening Stone product pages.

Sharpening evaluation: Visual inspection of the instrument's cutting edge:

• if the cutting edge is rounded will reflect the light, then it is blunt.
• if the cutting edge is edged will not reflect the light, then it is sharp. Testing the instrument's blade with the plastic Testing Stick:
• if it runs smoothly over the Testing Stick, then it is blunt.
• if it grabs into the Testing Stick and removes small fragments of the plastic, then it is sharp.
