Key Features

• Mirror-Image Dual Blades – Two sharp blades positioned on either side of the tip allow access to different angles without repositioning the instrument during scaling.
• Short-Reach Terminal Shank – A compact, precisely angled shank delivers better control and enhanced maneuverability in tight periodontal spaces and posterior tooth regions.
• 40-Degree Blade Angle – Blades are angled at 40 degrees relative to the handle, making this instrument ideal for reaching supragingival calculus on posterior teeth efficiently.
• Thin, Sharp Precision Blades – Finely honed thin blades enable targeted, effective calculus removal with minimal trauma to surrounding tooth structure and soft tissues.

Clinical Applications
