The After Five® Gracey features a terminal shank 3 mm longer than a standard Gracey curette, and a thinner blade for improved access.
Gracey curettes are designed to adapt to a specific area or tooth surface. Hu-Friedy manufactures a variety of Gracey styles and patterns, such as After Five® curettes with a longer terminal shank and thinned blade, Mini Five® curettes with After Five® features and a shorter blade, and the 15/16 and 17/18 patterns. An optional Rigid shank is available on all of the Gracey designs.
Available in EverEdge® Technology, a revolutionary stainless steel alloy that is super-durable to stay sharper longer.
