The supragingival scaler has a triangular blade in cross section,
with cutting capability at all three points of the triangle.
It is used for removing supragingival calculus only. It is never
used subgingivally. It requires a modified
pen grip. This instrument must be kept sharp. It is rarely used
in vet dentistry now due to improvements in ultrasonic scaler tip
technology.
