FAQs
What teeth is the Gracey 5/6 used on?
It is designed for all surfaces of the anterior teeth and premolars. Using the pattern matched to the tooth area helps the cutting edge adapt closely to the root surface.
Why choose a silicone handle?
A moulded silicone handle is wider and lighter than a solid steel one, which many clinicians find more comfortable over a long session.
What material is this instrument made from?
The working ends are hardened Japanese-standard J2 stainless steel, set into a moulded silicone handle. Both are fully autoclavable.
Handle colour: choose Yellow or Pink. Both are the same instrument; only the handle colour differs.
