Your new patient has generalized moderate bone loss, 2-3mm probe depths with 3-4mm generalized recession with generalized abrasion. There is generalized light calculus interproximally and on the anterior linguals of the mandibulars. Write out a plan of action to complete the scaling for this patient. Start with a discussion of whether you would use the ultrasonic and if so, what inserts and power. Then talk through which hand instrument(s) you would use for the anterior and which instrument(s) for the posteriors. There is not one perfect answer, I just want you to lay out a plan that you would use that you feel would be effective and appropriate for this patient
