NES-1576

13S/14S
The NES-1576 is a pointed curette in the 13S/14S pattern, built for clinicians who need a finer, more tapered tip than a standard Gracey blade offers when working narrow embrasures or tight root concavities. Where broader curette blades can struggle to seat properly in confined spaces, the pointed profile on this instrument slips in without forcing the tissue or losing contact with the root surface.
Quick specs:
Pattern: 13S/14S, pointed working end
Blade profile: tapered, narrower than standard Gracey width
Use case: narrow interproximal spaces, root concavities, furcation-adjacent areas
Material: surgical stainless steel
Sterilization: fully autoclavable, corrosion-resistant
The narrower tip doesn’t sacrifice cutting efficiency; it’s ground with the same single cutting edge and offset blade angle that defines the pointed curette family, just scaled down to fit spaces a standard-width blade can’t reach cleanly. This makes it a natural add-on rather than a replacement for a full Gracey or McCall set, since most clinicians pull it out specifically for the sites where their standard instruments feel oversized. Before committing to any curette in a tight space, it’s worth confirming exact pocket architecture with a diagnostic instrument, since narrow curettes still need the right depth reading to work efficiently. Next Edge Surgical grinds every NES-1576 blade to hold its point through normal sharpening cycles without rounding out.
