The B5/6 Ball Scaler has two slender, curved sickle blades with pointed tips and cutting edges for supragingival calculus removal. The B5 blade is 0.7 mm wide and the B6 blade is 0.8 mm wide at their widest points.
Both blades have a narrower, shorter working profile than the B2/3 pair. The double-ended arrangement lets the clinician change working-end orientation by rotating the diamond-knurled stainless steel handle. Overall length is 6.9 in (17.5 cm).
The slim working blades are what set B5/6 apart from B2/3. With maximum widths under 1 mm at each end, this pattern offers a different contact profile from the broader B2/3 blades without changing the familiar double-ended layout.
