1 mm
1,65 mm
Thin layers. Tight margins. Almost no room to work.
That is exactly where the NES-1973 earns its place. One end measures 1 mm; the other stretches to 1.65 mm. The difference is small yet decisive. It lets a clinician slide cement or liner into a restricted space, then switch to the slightly wider tip for final adaptation without grabbing another instrument.
Most operators notice the change in control immediately. The blades stay thin enough to protect the matrix and soft tissue, yet rigid enough to move material where it needs to go. Stainless steel keeps both ends true after sterilization, so the feel remains consistent from the first use to the hundredth.
Practical notes:
Excellent for veneer cementation and deep liner placement
Minimal displacement of adjacent structures
Quick rotation between ends mid-procedure
When the material looks settled, a light pass with the finer tip turns the tool into a diagnostic instrument, exposing any remaining void or excess before the restoration is fully seated. Next Edge Surgical LLC keeps the NES-1973 in its spatula line for clinicians who work routinely in the smallest restorative spaces.
