Dental Explorer #6 Single Ended Hollow Handle US Elite

Brand: US Elite

Purpose: The Dental Explorer 6, also known simply as an explorer or an explorer 6, is a diagnostic instrument used to detect irregularities on the tooth surface and assess the texture of the tooth enamel.

Design: It consists of a thin, pointed metal tip (usually made of stainless steel) that is slightly flexible. The tip is typically bent at a specific angle to facilitate access to different areas of the mouth.

Function: Dentists use the explorer to carefully probe the tooth surface and the margins of dental restorations (like fillings or crowns) to detect areas of decay, calculus (tartar), or defects such as cracks or irregularities.

At US Elite Inc., our mission is to improve the lives of those we touch by focusing on practice care so that dental professionals can focus on patients.
