NES-1564

Solid handle. Thin diameter. Classic Gracey shape. The NES-1564 is a single 1/2 pattern curette built for clinicians who never warmed to hollow-handle instruments and want the traditional 6mm grip back in rotation.
Why this pattern matters:
The 1/2 is the anterior curette, made for facial and lingual surfaces of incisors and canines
Solid stainless construction, Ø 6mm handle, 170mm total length
Denser handle mass than hollow variants, which some clinicians find steadies the hand during fine subgingival work
Autoclave-safe and resistant to pitting through repeated sterilization
Anterior teeth demand a lighter touch than molars, since the root surfaces are narrower and the tissue is thinner, and this curette’s blade is shaped accordingly, with a tighter curve than posterior patterns. It’s not sold as part of a boxed set, which makes it an easy pickup for restocking a tray, replacing a bent or over-sharpened piece, or supplying a new team member with the exact anterior curette a senior clinician already trusts.
Many operatories keep this curette next to a diagnostic instrument used during the initial exam, since anterior pocket depths get flagged early and this curette is often the first one reached for once treatment begins. Next Edge Surgical manufactures every NES-1564 to the same solid-handle spec, so it drops into an existing rotation without any adjustment period.
