Universal Curettes

Universal curettes

Universal curettes are versatile periodontal hand instruments designed for both supragingival and subgingival instrumentation. Featuring rounded toes and two cutting edges, they support controlled adaptation to tooth surfaces across the entire mouth, making them a practical choice for routine scaling and maintenance procedures.

This category includes common universal patterns such as Barnhart, Columbia, Langer, and McCall curettes, along with specialty universal designs for specific clinical preferences and access requirements. Built for precision and comfort, these instruments help clinicians maintain consistent tactile control while managing deposits in a wide range of treatment situations.

Universal curette types:

• Barnhart Curettes – universal designs for general scaling and debridement
• Columbia Curettes – broad-use patterns for multiple tooth surfaces
• Langer Curettes – universal instrumentation with enhanced posterior access
• McCall Curettes – classic universal patterns for daily hygiene procedures
• Specialty Universal Curettes – variations designed for specific access and technique preferences
