Types

The periodontal curette is a type of hand-activated instrument used in dentistry and dental hygiene for the purpose of scaling and root planing. The periodontal curette is considered a treatment instrument and is classified into two main categories: universal curettes and Gracey curettes.
Periodontal curettes have one face, one or two cutting edges and a rounded back and rounded toe.
They are typically the instrument of choice for subgingival calculus removal.
typically used during nonsurgical periodontal therapy of a patient’s dental hygiene care.
The goal of nonsurgical periodontal therapy is to eliminate inflammation and return the patient’s periodontium back to health.
One of the ways this can be achieved is by minimizing the bacterial challenge to the patient.

Direction to use

Gingival curettage is considered a surgical procedure. It uses a curette to, from a periodontal pocket, remove soft tissue lining. All that is left behind is healthy connective gingival tissue lining. As originally conceived, gingival curettage was meant to encourage the attachment of new connective tissue to a tooth. This was a direct result of removing diseased junctional epithelium and pocket lining.


When tissue has been damaged at a severe level, in order to promote healing, infected or damaged tissue is taken out. This situation is likely a result of gingivitis that was not treated and developed into periodontitis. If further damage occurs, it can affect not only tissue but bone. Scaling and root planing is another, and possibly more well-known, treatment for gingivitis and periodontitis.

Instrumentation
For calculus removal place one of the cutting edges of the universal curette against the tooth surface.
Tilt the instrument toward the tooth to achieve 70° to 80° angle between the tooth and the blade.
Apply lateral pressure and activate the curette by using vertical, diagonal or horizontal pull strokes.
Both cutting edges of the same curette can be used by simply tilting the instrument one way or the other.
