Product catalog summary
Overview of Gracey Curettes: Nordent offers a variety of Gracey curettes designed for specific dental applications. These include Standard, Rigid, Long, and Mini-Long variations, each tailored for different dental procedures and anatomical access.
Gracey Application Chart: The chart provides guidance on selecting the appropriate Gracey pattern based on the dental surface being treated. For anterior surfaces, patterns 1-2, 3-4, or 5-6 are recommended. For buccal and lingual surfaces of premolars and molars, patterns 7-8 or 9-10 are suitable. Mesial surfaces require patterns 11-12 or 15-16, while distal surfaces use patterns 13-14 or 17-18.
Design Specifications: Nordent Gracey curettes are designed to minimize tissue trauma and reduce the number of strokes needed. The standard curettes have a 1.1 mm terminal shank diameter and blades that are 0.9 mm wide and 4 mm long. The Rigid version features a thicker shank and longer blade, ideal for periodontal surgery.
Long and Mini-Long Reach: These versions have a terminal shank 3 mm longer than standard, with the Mini-Long featuring a shorter, narrower blade for deep periodontal pockets. Both designs enhance access and reduce tissue trauma.
Handle Selection: Each Gracey pattern is available with various handle options, allowing customization based on practitioner preference.
Re-sharpening Tips: Gracey curettes have one cutting edge and a rounded toe. When sharpening, focus on the lower edge and toe. Nordent provides resources for effective sharpening techniques.
