Description

Turbo-CR™ is a calculus scaling foam that assists in rapid calculus removal by softening and loosening calculus from subgingival root surfaces and supragingival areas of teeth. Designed to reduce patient chair-time, an effortless flow of material, enhance the patient experience, Turbo-CR looks to streamline the removal of calculus with a gentle approach to enamel and dentin.

Unique Attributes

  • Effectively softens light to moderate calculus, improving comfort during SRP
  • Easy to dispense and apply, with minimal chairside steps
  • Innovative concept that can reduce wrist strain over longer visits

Clinical Tips

  • Create a dry field before placement and allow at least one minute before starting debridement.
  • It definitely works better the longer you leave it on. Due to the foaming, a little goes a long way.
  • Dispense material directly onto the teeth before placing the tray for better control and less waste.
  • Apply to site-specific areas when needed. Communicate with patients about the color and foaming action.

Indications

  • Softens calculus to facilitate easier removal
  • Reduces scaling time
  • May be used in preparation for both hand and scaling procedures
