The N129, sometimes called the Nebraska pattern, has two slender, mirror-image sickle blades on angled shanks. Its approximately 10 mm blade reach offers a different working profile for accessing supragingival deposits around posterior contacts and selected interproximal surfaces.
Both pointed stainless steel tips share a diamond-knurled handle. The double-ended instrument measures 6.6 in (16.8 cm) overall and is intended for routine reprocessing.
Choose the N129 when a relatively long, narrow sickle blade is preferred for supragingival access around posterior contact areas. The mirror-image working ends give clinicians two approaches on the same instrument.
