NES-1620

Fig. 1/2 GR
Built on the Gracey pattern, the NES-1620 is shaped specifically for buccal-surface periodontal work on anterior teeth. Its blade carries the signature Gracey offset — angled so only the lower cutting edge contacts the root — which lets hygienists and periodontists work close to the gumline without traumatizing surrounding tissue. This is the instrument reached for when calculus sits stubbornly along the buccal aspect of incisors, canines, and premolars, where straight-bladed scalers tend to over-angle and nick soft tissue.
Beyond active scaling, the NES-1620 doubles as a diagnostic instrument, giving clinicians tactile feedback on pocket depth, root contour, and subgingival deposits before a definitive treatment plan is set.
What sets this piece apart on the tray:
Forged from surgical-grade stainless steel for a rigid, chatter-free stroke
Offset shank geometry matched to the Fig. 1/2 Gracey specification
Fine, tapered tip for controlled subgingival access
Fully autoclavable and built to withstand repeated sterilization cycles
Balanced handle weight that reduces hand fatigue during longer scaling appointments
Whether stocked for a periodontal recall day or a full scaling and root planing session, the NES-1620 holds its edge through routine use and resharpening, making it a dependable addition to any hygiene or periodontal instrument set.
