PeriodonticsThe angulation and flexibility of the shank are crucial in determining the ability of an instrument to remove gross deposits of calculus. The shank of a dental instrument, such as a scaler or curette, must be designed to allow for proper access and manipulation around the curves and contours of teeth to effectively remove calculus. While the blade also plays a role, the shank's design is more influential in reaching and adapting to the tooth's surface.
