CHICAGO, IL--(Marketwire - April 01, 2010) - Hu-Friedy, a global leader in the manufacture of dental instruments, today announced the launch of its sophisticated, user-friendly magnetostrictive ultrasonic scaler, SWERV3. The SWERV3 is an effective, versatile scaler designed for the comfort of dental professionals and their patients.
Hu-Friedy’s SWERV3 features finely-tuned electronics, which improve control and scaling effectiveness in all clinical indications, helping dental professionals provide optimal care. A full range of power settings provide procedural versatility and optimize clinical efficacy, and like all Hu-Friedy periodontal instruments, SWERV3 combines sophisticated technology with quality craftsmanship. The lightweight, well-balanced hand-piece is designed to specifications of the European Ergonomic Society, and when combined with Hu-Friedy’s Swivel™ line of ultrasonic inserts, provides dental professionals with the ability to perform-single handed adjustments, thus improving scaling efficiency.
Recognizing the importance of proper infection control, Hu-Friedy designed the SWERV3 with a smooth touch pad control panel for ease of asepsis.
