Abstract

See full text

A grip for an ultrasonic scaler insert includes a soft grip portion externally attached to a rigid body having front, rear and central portions. The soft grip is attached to the rigid body either by adhesive or ovennolding, and includes a plurality of elongated ridges along an exterior surface of the soft grip. The elongated ridges are spaced apart on the exterior surface in a manner directed to follow finger placement on the grip, so that the grip may be easily manipulated. The material making up the soft grip helps to reduce vibrations transmitted to the user during operation of the ultrasonic scaler.
