Product overview

Gracey Curette for periodontal scaling and root planing.

A Gracey Curette is a periodontal dental instrument designed for scaling, subgingival calculus removal and root planing applications. Gracey curettes are commonly produced in different numbered patterns, with each working-end configuration selected for specific periodontal access and tooth-surface requirements.

For professional procurement programmes, the exact Gracey pattern, working-end geometry, overall dimensions, handle configuration and material should be matched to the approved product reference, drawing or sample. This helps distributors, dental suppliers and private-label buyers receive the intended Gracey Curette configuration.

Applications

Gracey Curette for periodontal scaling, subgingival access and root planing.

Select the Gracey configuration according to the intended periodontal application, tooth surface, access requirement, working-end geometry and approved product specification.

01 · PERIODONTAL SCALING

Periodontal scaling

Gracey Curettes are commonly used for periodontal scaling applications where controlled removal of deposits is required around periodontal surfaces.

02 · ROOT PLANING

Root planing

Selected Gracey patterns can be used for root planing applications where access to the root surface and controlled working-end adaptation are required.

03 · SUBGINGIVAL ACCESS

Subgingival instrumentation

Area-specific Gracey working ends support professional subgingival instrumentation according to the selected pattern and clinical technique.

Instrument comparison

Gracey Curette vs Universal Curette

Working-end geometry and intended access are important when selecting a Gracey Curette or universal periodontal curette.

Selection point Gracey Curette Universal Curette
Working end Area-specific working-end design for selected periodontal surfaces General-purpose working-end design intended for broader surface access
Common application Periodontal scaling and root planing for specific tooth areas General periodontal scaling across multiple tooth surfaces
Pattern selection Multiple numbered patterns such as 1/2 through 17/18 Usually selected as a broader-purpose curette pattern
Access Selected according to tooth surface and periodontal access requirement Designed for wider general-purpose access
Procurement Confirm exact Gracey number, dimensions, handle and working-end geometry Confirm exact universal curette pattern, dimensions and approved specification

Exact working-end geometry and dimensions vary by manufacturer and product reference. Use the approved drawing, sample or specification as the final procurement reference.
