The Gracey Curette is an essential instrument in periodontal therapy, and this M5 Deep Scaling Gracey Special Curette (GRA 13/14) from Helmut Zepf delivers the precision and control required for thorough subgingival debridement. Designed specifically for the distal surfaces of premolars and molars, its skewed blade geometry ensures optimal placement in posterior regions where access is most challenging.

Instrument Overview

This Gracey Curette is engineered for deep scaling procedures, featuring a 13/14 area-specific design that targets distal surfaces with accuracy. The skewed configuration of the working end allows clinicians to adapt the blade to tooth anatomy with minimal patient discomfort, maintaining close contact with root surfaces throughout the stroke.

ZEPF-bIONIK Handle

Design Notes

The M5 design: the first shank is about 3 mm longer than standard and the sharpened working end is shortened, with a 0.95 mm thin, flexible and therefore highly tactile first shaft — built for special subgingival curettage in tight, deep pockets (beyond 5 mm) and along narrow root surfaces.
