The curve lets the tip travel along the root surface into the furcation entrance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhy choose a silicone handle?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eA moulded silicone handle is wider and lighter than a solid steel one, so it takes less pinch force to control the instrument. Across a full day of appointments that means noticeably less hand fatigue, and the textured surface keeps its grip when wet or gloved.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhat material is this instrument made from?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe working end is hardened Japanese-standard J2 stainless steel, which holds its edge through repeated autoclave cycles, set into a moulded silicone handle.
