LOTUS Gracey Curette 11/12 M5 Deep Scaling, Purple Crystal (Helmut Zepf Mfg. No. 24.234.11GM5)

The Gracey Curette 11/12 M5 from Helmut Zepf is a precision periodontal instrument engineered for deep scaling on posterior teeth, delivering outstanding tactile feedback and clinical efficiency. Featuring the innovative LOTUS Design handle, this instrument sets a new standard in ergonomic instrumentation for dental professionals who demand both performance and sustainability.

LOTUS Design Handle

The unique shape and surface microstructure of the LOTUS Design handle provide exceptional control and comfort throughout the full clinical day. Unlike traditional serrated or textured handles, the LOTUS profile is easier to clean, supporting better infection control protocols without sacrificing grip or precision. The Purple Crystal color allows for fast, accurate chairside identification while adding a distinctive aesthetic to your instrument setup.

Gracey Curette 11/12 — Area-Specific Performance

As an area-specific instrument, this Gracey Curette features a single cutting edge precisely angled for mesial surfaces of posterior teeth. The rounded toe and blunt outer edge are designed to protect surrounding soft tissue, while the slightly flexible shaft transmits responsive tactile feedback — enabling clinicians to detect and remove biofilm and calculus deposits along root surfaces with confidence and precision.

QuickFix Exchangeable Tip System

This Gracey Curette utilizes the Helmut Zepf QuickFix exchangeable tip system, allowing clinicians to replace working ends quickly as needed. This system reduces both downtime and long-term costs compared to conventional sharpening or full instrument replacement — a practical advantage in high-volume practices.
