A surgical curette is an instrument used in an excision or cleaning operation to scrap or debridge biological tissue or debris. In design, the curette is a simple hand instrument. Somewhat similar in design to a stylus; a simple pick, hook, or gouge is placed at the tip of the curette. Curettage is the mechanism by which dental tartar is extracted from the teeth layers. Whereas a root planing is a procedure in which the root surfaces are smoothed and any damaged tooth structure removed. The operation is done under local anesthetic and the surgical curette instrument makes it less painful for patients. Both procedures can be performed with this dental surgical instrument. This will also reduce the user’s efforts and encourage them to work with sterilized and secure instruments. If we properly handle such specific dental instrument, the longevity can be enhanced. And this is how they can be a component of your dental surgical collection for ages.
