What dental tools are necessary?

Probes

When a patient goes for a general dental checkup, the dentist uses a number of different types of hand-held stainless steel probes or sharp-pointed tools. The most common ones are called the sickle or contra-angled probes. By softly poking the sharp end of these instruments into the patient's teeth and gums, the dentist can measure the depth of the gum pockets and look for holes in the enamel to determine gum and tooth decay.  

Dental Suction Unit

While the dentist or dental hygienist is working on a patient, an excess amount of saliva will accumulate in the mouth. A portable dental suction unit, called a saliva ejector, removes the accumulated moisture.  

Drill

The dentist's drill has a quickly rotating bit that makes holes in the tooth to remove decayed material, or plaque, from a cavity. While the tooth is being drilled, tiny diamond chips on the drill's tip erode the plaque and damaged enamel. Once the plaque is removed from the tooth, the bacteria have nowhere else to live, so no more decay can occur.

Mirror

Dentists use a round mirror at the end of a stainless steel pen-like handle to see into hidden parts of the mouth and teeth. They are particularly looking for gums that are red, swollen or bleeding, decayed teeth and areas where tartar is heavily built up.

Forceps

Dental forceps, which extract teeth, consists of a beak, neck and handle. The beak is made to grab a tooth that is located in a specific part of the mouth. It is designed to fit tightly around the tooth. The forceps' beak, for example, may be especially angled to extract the upper canines, upper laterals, or bicuspids.
