Reprocessing Instructions
Important: ErgoDenta instruments are supplied NON-STERILE and must be cleaned, disinfected, and sterilized before first use and after each subsequent use.
Step 1
Pre-Cleaning
Rinse under cold running water immediately after use. Remove visible debris with a soft brush. Keep instruments moist until processing.
Step 2
Automated Cleaning
Washer-disinfector: pre-rinse cold, enzymatic wash 55°C/10 min, thermal disinfect 90°C/5 min, dry.
Step 3
Inspect & Maintain
Check for residual soil, corrosion, or damage. Lubricate hinged instruments with medical-grade lubricant.
Step 4
Package
Place in ISO 11607-compliant sterilization pouches or wraps. Arrange to prevent tip contact. Seal properly.
Step 5
Sterilize
Autoclave at 134°C (273°F) for min. 18 minutes, pre-vacuum cycle. Validate with chemical and biological indicators.
Step 6
Store
Store in a clean, dry, enclosed area. Verify packaging integrity before use. Re-sterilize if compromised.
UNIVERSAL VS GRACEY
How does this curette compare across families?
Universal and Gracey curettes solve different clinical problems. The blade angle, edge count and intended pocket depth tell you which to reach for at the chair.
Universal Curette · 90°
Both edges sharpened. Adapts to multiple surfaces with one instrument. For supragingival and light subgingival scaling.
Gracey Curette · 70° offset
Single lower edge sharpened. Area-specific. For deep subgingival pockets and definitive root planing.
Quick rule: Universal for routine recall prophylaxis and shallow pockets · Gracey for moderate-to-deep periodontal pockets and area-specific root planing. Most kits hold both.
