The Quinelato Gracey 9/10 Curette addresses buccal and lingual surfaces of the posterior teeth in situations of restricted access, using an accentuated shank angulation to negotiate deep pockets and furcation entrances. The offset blade cuts on one edge, and the rounded toe and back protect the pocket wall throughout the stroke.
Key Features
Accentuated Shank Angulation — the additional bend seats the blade against posterior facial and lingual roots even when pocket depth or arch position limits approach
Restricted-Access Adaptation — the working end negotiates furcation entrances and root depressions, tracking their contour instead of skipping across them
Single Cutting Edge — one edge performs the work, so lateral pressure is delivered where it is intended instead of against the soft tissue
Rounded Toe and Dorsal Surface — both keep insertion closed and atraumatic when the blade is advanced to the base of a deep pocket
Textured Autoclavable Handle — the knurled surgical steel body maintains grip security and survives repeated sterilization

Clinical Applications
Instrumentation of deep posterior buccal pockets where the blade must travel well beyond the gingival margin to reach the deposit.
Debridement at furcation entrances on multi-rooted teeth where the facial and lingual openings demand a pronounced approach angle.
Root surface preparation before periodontal surgery completing closed debridement in restricted posterior sites.
Facing posterior sites that resist ordinary adaptation?
The accentuated shank of this curette reaches where access is genuinely difficult.
