FAQs
How do the Lucas 84, 85, 86 and 87 differ?
They share the same design in increasing spoon sizes. The 84 is the finest for narrow anterior sockets, the 86 is the middle size for premolars and smaller molars, and the 87 carries the largest spoon.
Why choose a silicone handle?
A 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.
What material is this instrument made from?
The working end is hardened Japanese-standard J2 stainless steel, which holds its edge through repeated autoclave cycles, set into a moulded silicone handle. Both are fully autoclavable.
