The Quinelato Gracey 5/6 Curette bridges the anterior and premolar regions, with a moderately angled shank that adapts to incisors, canines, and premolars alike. The single cutting edge, rounded toe, and rounded back deliver subgingival deposit removal without abrading the surrounding soft tissue wall.
Key Features
Anterior-to-Premolar Adaptation — a moderate shank angulation covers the transition from canine to first premolar, so one instrument follows the arch through the change in root form
Area-Specific Offset Blade — the lower cutting edge is presented to the root at a working angulation the operator can reproduce stroke after stroke
Rounded Toe and Rounded Back — both are shaped to enter the sulcus closed and to ride against the pocket wall without laceration
Tactile Textured Handle — surface knurling transmits root roughness to the fingertips during exploratory strokes
Autoclavable Surgical Steel — the polished body resists corrosion through repeated sterilization between appointments

Clinical Applications
Scaling across the canine-to-premolar transition where root anatomy changes and a single adaptable working end saves instrument exchanges.
Root planing of premolar facial and lingual surfaces in pockets of moderate depth during initial therapy.
Debridement of anterior proximal surfaces completing quadrant instrumentation without switching to a posterior-specific design.
