DG 16/23
Combining dual diagnostic capabilities into a single sleek tool, the NES-1372 from Next Edge Surgical LLC delivers unmatched versatility for comprehensive dental examinations and endodontic assessments. This multi-purpose diagnostic instrument integrates two trusted patterns: the endodontic DG 16 working tip on one end for identifying root canal entries, paired with the iconic #23 Shepherd’s Hook on the opposing end for detecting occlusal caries, surface irregularities, and margin integrity.
By combining these two essential geometries in a 170mm frame, the NES-1372 minimizes instrument swaps, streamlining daily hygiene checks, restorative evaluations, and initial endodontic work. Engineered from high-tensile surgical stainless steel, the working ends remain sharp and resilient through repeated autoclave cycles. To ensure exceptional ergonomic comfort during long shifts, Next Edge Surgical manufactures this explorer with custom handle choices—including wide-diameter hollow handles (8mm and 9.5mm) that damp hand strain while sharpening acoustic feedback, and a traditional 6mm solid handle for balanced weight distribution.
Key Performance Features:
– DG 16/23 Dual Configuration: Seamlessly bridges endodontic canal orientation and general caries detection.
– Optimized Ergonomics: Offered in Ø 8mm or Ø 9.5mm hollow grips to lower pinch force, or Ø 6mm solid stainless steel.
