The Quinelato Gracey 7/8 Curette is dedicated to the buccal and lingual surfaces of the posterior teeth, where its shank bends carry the blade past the cheek and tongue onto premolar and molar roots. A single cutting edge, a rounded toe, and a rounded back allow closed subgingival strokes across broad posterior root faces.
Key Features
Posterior Buccal and Lingual Access — the shank bends route the working end around the arch curvature to reach premolar and molar facial and lingual roots
Single-Edge Offset Blade — only the lower edge engages the deposit, keeping the upper edge away from the pocket wall during vertical and oblique strokes
Rounded Toe and Back Profile — the working end is contoured to advance apically along broad root surfaces without gouging the epithelial attachment
Non-Slip Textured Handle — the gripping surface holds steady during the firm lateral pressure that posterior calculus removal demands
Corrosion-Resistant Polished Body — the finish sheds debris quickly and endures routine steam sterilization

Clinical Applications
Buccal and lingual scaling of molars on the broad root faces where supragingival deposits extend below the margin.
Root planing of premolar facial surfaces during quadrant scaling and root planing sessions.
Posterior periodontal maintenance removing recurrent buccal and lingual deposits at recall visits.
Covering the buccal and lingual walls of the posterior arch?
This working end is shaped for exactly that face, giving uninterrupted adaptation across premolars and molars.
