The Goldman-Fox GF5 has two slightly hooked, hoe-shaped working tips for heavier calculus on the buccal and lingual surfaces of posterior teeth. The tips are matching mirror images, and both working blades measure 2 mm wide. Their cutting-edge profile differs from the pointed end of a sickle scaler.
Its double-ended stainless steel construction provides two working orientations. The diamond-knurled handle measures 7.1 in (18 cm) from end to end.
GF5 is the buccal/lingual hoe pattern in this group. For a different hoe orientation suited to mesial and distal posterior surfaces, compare it with GF6.
