Dental Miller #11 (Medium) Double End Surgical Curette, 3.5mm Wide Spoons.Â
Dental Miller curettes are surgical instruments used in various dental procedures, primarily for:
Curettage: Scraping or removing soft tissue, such as granulation tissue or inflamed gum tissue.
Cyst removal: Excising or removing cysts, which are fluid-filled sacs that can form around teeth or in the jawbone.
Tooth socket debridement: Cleaning and preparing the empty socket after a tooth extraction.
Here are some key features of dental Miller curettes:
- Double-ended: Most Miller curettes have two working ends, each with a slightly different spoon-shaped blade. This provides versatility for different procedures and angles of access in the mouth.
- Angled shank: The handle of the instrument is typically angled at 40 degrees, which allows for better control and access during procedures.
- Variety of sizes: Miller curettes come in different sizes with varying blade widths and depths to accommodate different needs. Common sizes include #8, #9, #10, #11, and #12, with blade widths ranging from 35mm to 4.5mm.
- Surgical-grade stainless steel: They are made of high-quality, durable stainless steel that can be sterilized for repeated use.
