High Speed Imaging of Cavitation around Dental Ultrasonic Scaler Tips
Fig 9
Contrast enhanced image stills from a high speed video of tip 1 (a), tip 2 (b) and tip 10P (c) at power 20, showing cavitation occurring around the free end and at the bend of the tips. Green arrows indicate points of largest tip vibration and white arrows indicate the point of least displacement. Also see videos 3, 4 & 5.
