The Explorer Probe EXP23/CP11.5B – (3.5-5.5-8.5-11.5), 3EZ is a double-ended diagnostic instrument that combines a #23 explorer with a ball-tipped CP-11.5B periodontal probe. The #23 working end supports tactile examination of pits, fissures, tooth surfaces, deposits, and restoration margins, while the CP-11.5B end uses a 0.5 mm ball tip and 3.5-5.5-8.5-11.5 mm reference points for periodontal screening and depth assessment.
The combined design keeps tactile exploration and screening measurements on one instrument. The lightweight 3EZ handle has a textured grip for tactile sensitivity and controlled maneuverability. With a 6.3 in (16.0 cm) overall length, this configuration offers balanced reach for routine diagnostic and periodontal examinations.
This configuration combines the tactile #23 explorer with a ball-tipped CP-11.5B screening end. The four reference points make the probe easy to read during screening, while the lightweight 3EZ handle supports precise fingertip control and quick repositioning.
