Frequently asked questions
Is this probe suitable for minimizing tissue trauma?
Yes, this instrument is specifically designed with a ball end tip. This feature is engineered to effectively minimize connective tissue penetration during examinations, making it a safer option for patients compared to traditional sharper probes.
Can this probe be sterilized for repeated use?
Absolutely. This is a reusable instrument crafted from high-quality stainless steel. It is built to withstand repeated sterilization cycles, ensuring long-term utility in your clinical setting.
Is the probe handle comfortable for long procedures?
The probe features a round handle design. It is crafted with a textured grip area—featuring fine cross-hatching or knurling—to provide ergonomic control and a secure, tactile grip during manual manipulation.
Are there any latex components in this instrument?
No, you can use this with confidence knowing that it is not made with natural rubber latex. It is designed to be safe for patients with latex sensitivities.
What is the primary function of this WHO (PSR) probe?
This specialized probe is essential for several periodontal diagnostic tasks:
- Assessing periodontal pocket depths
- Identifying areas of gingival bleeding
- Mapping anatomical configurations within the oral cavity
Is this probe TAA compliant for government or federal use?
Yes, the Sklar WHO (PSR) Probe is fully TAA compliant, making it suitable for facilities that require adherence to Trade Agreements Act regulations.
Is this instrument a high-quality, durable choice?
It is constructed from high-quality stainless steel, which is the industry standard for durability and longevity in medical tools. Furthermore, it is backed by a lifetime warranty, reflecting Sklar’s confidence in the manufacturing quality of the instrument.
Should I use this for ultra-precise pocket measurements?
While this probe is excellent for general screening and assessments, it is not the optimal choice for highly precise, micron-level pocket depth measurements. Its ball-end design is optimized for tissue protection rather than absolute precision.
Is this instrument ready to use straight out of the box?
Yes, this probe requires no assembly. It arrives as a single, factory-new unit, ready to be integrated into your existing dental protocols and professional equipment immediately.
Does this come as a set or a single piece?
This product is sold as a single unit, specifically the Single-Ended, Round Handle probe (1 each). It is designed to be a straightforward, essential tool for your clinical diagnostic kit.
