Bone curettes, also known as Partsch curettes or sharp spoons, are surgical devices with sharp edges and a scoop form that are used in medicine for debridement, granulation tissue removal, and wound scraping. Curettes are medical tools that are mostly utilized in dental medicine and dermatology. They are also used in gynecology, such as to remove tissue from the uterus during a biopsy or dilatation and curettage procedures.

Importance of Bone Curettes in Dentistry

In the dental industry, bone curettes are sharp-edged instruments used to clean the alveolus following a tooth extraction, remove cavities from the dentine with smaller bone curettes (excavators), and remove calculus. These surgical devices can also be used to scrape inflammatory tissue during exco-chelation.

Medical curettes are most commonly used in dermatology to remove surgical warts, but they can also be used to collect skin scrapings from skin lesions.

This selection includes bone curettes in a variety of sizes and forms. We provide curettes with hollow handles or flat ends. Furthermore, the instrument's ends might be curved, angled, or straight, ensuring that you will discover an instrument suitable for the intended medical use. The Volkmann sharp spoon is a common surgical curette in this category, as it is reusable and can be cleansed and sterilized.

The bone matrix is the substance that gives bones their hard surface and strength. This matrix is filled with living bone cells. These cells create and maintain the matrix, assisting with bone renewal and healing. Smoothing the bone activates the matrix, which initiates the healing process.

This device is used to gently smooth bone. A curette allows the surgeon to scrape away bone by attaching a little spoon to the end of the tool, akin to an ice cream scoop. The bone curette spoon has sturdy, sharp edges. The handle might be huge and broad, taking up the full hand, or small and slender. Additionally, scooper sizes differ. These instruments can be tilted forward and backward or remain straight.

The bone curette can be used to obtain a bone sample for a biopsy, assess the health of bone in specific parts of the jaw, or prepare bone for dental implant insertion.

You can also say a curette is a stylus-like surgical medical instrument that scrapes or scoops away excess blood or contaminated tissues. Dental curettes are used to eliminate tartar deposits from the teeth. A curette can be double- or single-ended, with spoon-like ends, hooks, or gouges.
