Vintera curette

A Winter curette is a special instrument that is used to remove tartar and plaque from teeth. It was developed in the 1950s by British dentist John Winter and has since become one of the most popular instruments in dentistry.

The Winter curette consists of two parts: a handle and a working part. The handle has the shape of a curved tube, which allows the doctor to easily control the instrument while working. The working part of the curette is made in the form of a scraper with sharp edges.

The principle of operation of the Winter curette is that it removes tartar and plaque from the surface of the teeth. This helps prevent the development of caries and other oral diseases.

One of the advantages of the Winter curette is that it does not damage tooth enamel like other scaling instruments do. In addition, the Winter curette allows you to remove tartar even in hard-to-reach places where other instruments cannot reach.

Despite all the advantages of the Winter curette, this instrument also has its disadvantages. For example, it may be quite expensive and difficult to access for some patients. Also, the Winter curette may cause discomfort for patients during the procedure, especially if they have sensitive teeth.

Overall, the Winter Curette is an effective tool for removing tartar and plaque. However, before choosing this tool, you should consult your dentist to make sure it is suitable for your case.
