The Explorer TU17/23 – 6EZ is a double-ended diagnostic dental explorer that combines two complementary working-end patterns in one instrument. The TU17 end is designed for tactile detection of subgingival calculus, while the #23 Shepherd’s Hook end supports caries detection and examination of pits and fissures.
The larger-diameter 6EZ handle features deep diamond knurling for a secure grip and controlled tactile handling. With a balanced 6.3 in (16.1 cm) overall length, this version is well suited to clinicians who prefer a fuller handle profile while performing routine dental and periodontal examinations.
This version pairs the versatile TU17/23 working-end combination with a larger 6EZ handle. The fuller, deeply knurled grip provides increased hand contact and stable control while preserving the tactile sensitivity needed for calculus and caries detection.
