Sickle 204s on Patient

This is the posterior sickle 204S scaling sextant #4 from the buccal aspect.  Lateral pressure is on the pull stroke only going from the base of the pocket up to the contact.  Gently manipulate the tissue to the side to produce as productive stroke as possible.  Always start from the most distal surface moving toward the anterior part of the sextant.
