Use the following case study to answer the question below. Mrs. Jane Marcum is 55 years old, has a history of type 1 diabetes, joint replacement in 2003, hypertension, latex allergy, and a heart attack 4 months ago. You record her pulse rate at 80 beats per minute, respiratory rate is 16 breaths per minute, and blood pressure is 110/72 mm Hg. Her last physician’s visit was two years ago; her last dental appointment was four years ago. Mrs. Marcum tells you that her A1C is 7.1. You detect a medium-sized, tenacious deposit located 5 mm below the gingival margin on the mesial surface of the first molar. Which instrument would you select to remove the deposit?
