Ball Tip Dental Probe CP-11.5B 3 Pack
CP-11.5B Ball Tip Probe for Periodontal Examination
The CP-11.5B Ball Tip Dental Probe is a specialized periodontal examination instrument distinguished by its rounded ball-tip working end. This design provides a defined contact point for clinical probing and can be incorporated into periodontal assessment procedures where controlled examination of the gingival and periodontal tissues is required.
Periodontal probing is an important component of dental examination because it provides clinical measurements that can assist in evaluating the condition of periodontal tissues. The CP-11.5B can be used as part of a structured examination workflow in which the clinician assesses relevant sites and records findings for periodontal charting and treatment planning.
The ball-tip design is the key characteristic that differentiates this instrument from conventional pointed periodontal probes. The rounded working end is designed to provide controlled tissue contact during examination rather than functioning as a cutting or deposit-removal surface.
The CP-11.5B should therefore be positioned specifically as a ball-tip periodontal probe, rather than being treated as another generic CP-series instrument. Although CP-12, CP-10, CP-2, and CP-15 UNC probes may also be used for periodontal examination, their individual configurations and model identities should remain separate.
This instrument is intended for diagnostic probing and assessment, not calculus removal. Periodontal scalers and curettes have different working purposes and should not be substituted for a periodontal probe when measurement is required.
The 3-piece pack provides multiple matching probes for dental practices, examination trays, and instrument rotation. It can also support normal clinical processing when instruments are cleaned and sterilized between patient appointments.
For dental professionals seeking a dedicated rounded-tip probing instrument, the CP-11.5B provides a distinct option within periodontal diagnostic instrumentation.
