NES-1557

Ask any hygienist what slows down a scaling appointment, and poor access to buccal and lingual surfaces on molars usually tops the list. The NES-1557 answers that problem directly. This single Gracey curette, marked 7/8, is shaped for facial and lingual surfaces on posterior teeth, where universal curettes tend to lose contact with the root as the arch curves inward. Its hollow handle, a 9.5mm diameter over a 170mm length, gives clinicians a lighter, thicker grip than solid stainless handles typically allow, which matters over a full day of appointments where hand fatigue quietly erodes control.
The working end keeps the same rounded back and toe that defines the Gracey family, so soft tissue stays undisturbed even as the cutting edge removes stubborn subgingival deposits. Stainless steel construction means it takes an edge quickly under a sharpening stone and holds that edge through the kind of repeated autoclave cycles a busy operatory demands.
Because the 7/8 pattern is often reached for right alongside a probe or explorer, pairing it with a reliable diagnostic instrument during initial charting sets up a smoother transition into definitive debridement. Next Edge Surgical ships the NES-1557 ready for immediate clinical use, individually or as a refill piece for practices restocking sets that have seen years of service.
