FAQs
What is a surgical curette used for?
It cleans out an extraction socket, removing granulation tissue and debris before healing or grafting.
Why is socket debridement important?
Leaving granulation tissue or debris in a socket can slow healing or lead to complications, so thorough curettage supports better recovery.
What material is this instrument made from?
The handle is corrosion-resistant AISI 304 stainless steel and the working end is hardened Japanese-standard J2 stainless steel, each chosen for its job: rust-resistant handling and a hard, precise working end that keeps its shape through repeated autoclave cycles.
Commonly used immediately after extraction, alongside gauze packing and suturing instruments.
