The Langer curettes were designed in consultation with periodontist Dr. Burton Langer. They combine the shank design of a Gracey curette with a universal blade, allowing them to scale all surfaces of teeth. Four designs are available for different areas: SL1/2 for mandibular posterior, SL3/4 for maxillary posterior, SL5/6 for anterior, and SL17/18 for posterior teeth. The Langer curettes are intended to make scaling easier by allowing the user to reach both mesial and distal surfaces without instrument changes.
