NES-1402

Goldman Fox University of Michigan
Do you really need two separate probes for general screening and periodontal charting? Not with the NES-1402. This double-ended pointed probe puts a Goldman-Fox tip on one end and a University of Michigan tip on the other, so one instrument covers two of the most-used probe geometries in a typical exam.
Quick breakdown of what each end is built for:
Goldman-Fox end — sweeps interproximal contacts and subgingival curves with its rounded, sickle-style profile
University of Michigan end — a fine straight point suited to occlusal grooves, pits, and tight embrasures
Both tips share the same sharp, consistent taper so tactile feedback doesn’t shift between ends
Works equally well as a diagnostic instrument for new-patient exams or as a quick-check tool between restorative steps
Build quality follows the same standard across the range: solid surgical stainless steel, corrosion-resistant, and rated for repeated autoclave cycles without the tip losing its edge. Handle choice matters too — the NES-1402 comes with a hollow handle in Ø 8mm or Ø 9.5mm for a lighter feel, or a Ø 6mm solid handle for a firmer, traditional grip.
Because it condenses two probe patterns into a single handle, it’s a practical pick for hygienists who want to streamline their tray setup without sacrificing coverage, and for dental schools teaching both probe geometries side by side.
