- Used in dental hygiene procedures
Features:
- Purpose:
- Designed for scaling and root planing posterior teeth, specifically targeting the mesial and distal surfaces
- Amazing Gracey blade:
- Has a continuously curved blade that allows for easier adaptation to the tooth's surface and more efficient contact, requiring fewer strokes during a procedure
- Design:
- This instrument is double-ended
- One blade for the mesial surfaces of posterior teeth
- One blade for the distal surfaces of posterior teeth
- Shank:
- Terminal shank is 3 to 5mm longer than a standard Gracey instrument
- Provides better access to deep periodontal pockets and posterior surfaces that are typically difficult to reach
- Handle:
- The double-ended instrument has a large-diameter, ultra-lightweight, solid resin handle with extended knurling in "Caribbean Green"
- 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
