- Used in dental hygiene procedures
Features:
- Purpose:
- Designed for scaling and debridement on the mesial surfaces of posterior teeth, including premolars and molars
- Heavy-duty version of the standard R026, designed to provide greater strength and leverage for removing moderate to heavy or stubborn calculus deposits
- Amazing Gracey blade:
- The blade's continuous curve allows for easier adaptation to the tooth surface with fewer strokes, resulting in less tissue distention and stress for both the clinician and the patient
- Rigid Shank:
- Is thicker, stronger, and less flexible than the standard model
- This design allows the clinician to apply greater pressure with minimal shank flex, making it highly effective for tenacious calculus removal
- Handle:
- The double-ended instrument has a large-diameter, ultra-lightweight, solid resin handle with extended knurling in "Sunshine Yellow"
- This design improves grip, enhances tactile sensitivity, and helps reduce hand fatigue and the risk of carpal tunnel syndrome
- Durability:
- Instrument tips are made from cryogenically treated 440A surgical stainless steel, which makes them harder, sharper, and tougher
- This treatment allows them to hold their edge longer than many competitors
- Manufacturing:
- The instrument is handcrafted in the USA
