Curette McCall 13/14 Dental Set Periodontal 3 Pack
Curette McCall 13/14 Dental Set Periodontal 3 Pack
McCall 13/14 Universal Curette for Full-Mouth Periodontal Scaling
The McCall 13/14 Universal Curette 3-Piece Set is a versatile periodontal instrument set designed for controlled scaling and debridement across suitable tooth surfaces. Its McCall 13/14 universal curette pattern provides a broad-use configuration for professional dental hygiene and periodontal maintenance procedures.
Unlike pattern-specific curettes intended primarily for a particular tooth region, a universal curette can be adapted to multiple suitable tooth surfaces. This makes the McCall 13/14 a practical choice for clinicians who want a versatile instrument for routine full-mouth scaling without relying on a separate curette for every individual surface.
The working end is designed to engage suitable calculus and plaque deposits while allowing controlled adaptation to the tooth surface. The 13/14 configuration can be incorporated into both anterior and posterior instrumentation according to tooth anatomy, deposit location, access, and clinical technique.
The McCall 13/14 curette is particularly relevant for periodontal maintenance, routine scaling, professional dental hygiene, and cases involving moderate to heavier supragingival or subgingival deposits where appropriate.
The ergonomic handle provides a secure grip and tactile feedback during instrumentation, supporting controlled working-end positioning throughout scaling and debridement procedures.
The product is supplied as a 3-piece set, allowing instruments to be rotated during clinical use and sterilization cycles.
Manufactured from stainless steel, the curettes are designed for repeated professional use, corrosion resistance, and compatibility with standard sterilization procedures.
