GRACEY CURETTES (SET OF 8)
Gracey Curettes 1/2, 3/4, 5/6 are used on the anterior sextants of teeth. 7/8 and 9/10 are used on the buccal and lingual portions of posterior teeth. 11/12 and 15/16 are used on the mesial portions of posterior teeth. 13/14 and 17/18 are used on the distal portions of posterior teeth. The curettes are designed for use in specific areas, but it is possible to use them in other areas as well. When the instrument is inserted the last part of the shank of the curette is oblique to the tooth surface.
Gracey Curettes 1/2:The Gracey 1/2 is used for the removal of subgingival plaque, calculus and rootplaning in the upper and lower anterior areas. Gracey Curettes 11/12: The curette 11/12 is used for the removal of subgingival plaque, calculus and rootplaning of the mesial surfaces in the premolar and molar areas. Gracey Curettes 13/14: The curette 13/14 is used for the removal of subgingival plaque, calculus and rootplaning of distal surfaces in the (pre)molar areas. Gracey Curettes 15/16: The curette 15/16 is used for the removal of subgingival plaque, calculus and rootplaning of the mesial surfaces in the (pre)molar areas. The more accentuated angulation of the shank makes it easier to access the posterior areas.
