Description

The Younger-Good Periodontal Scaler Fig. 7/8 is a double-ended periodontal hand instrument designed for scaling and removal of plaque and calculus from tooth surfaces. The supplied instrument is clearly marked “Fig. 7/8 Younger-Good”, with catalogue/model number MMI-64-211. Dental instrument catalogues specifically identify 64-211 as the Younger-Good Fig. 7/8 pattern.

The Younger-Good 7/8 pattern is a universal periodontal instrument with paired working ends. Its working ends have a curved profile and rounded toe, with cutting edges positioned for effective instrumentation across tooth surfaces.

The curved shank configuration provides access to posterior and other contoured tooth surfaces. The Younger-Good 7/8 is commonly used for periodontal scaling and root-surface instrumentation, including areas around molars and premolars.

The cylindrical knurled handle provides a textured gripping surface for secure manual control and tactile feedback during scaling. The double-ended construction provides two working orientations in a single instrument.

Manufactured from Surgical Grade Stainless Steel, the instrument is suitable for professional dental use, repeated cleaning and routine autoclave sterilization.

To maintain the performance, appearance, and service life of your stainless steel dental and surgical instruments, follow these care guidelines:

  • Clean instruments immediately after use to prevent blood, tissue, or debris from drying on the surface.
  • Wash using a neutral pH enzymatic detergent and a soft nylon brush. Avoid abrasive pads, steel wool, or harsh chemicals.
  • Rinse thoroughly with distilled or demineralized water to minimize mineral deposits and corrosion.
  • Dry completely before sterilization or storage, paying special attention to hinges, joints, and serrations where moisture can accumulate.
  • Lubricate hinged and moving instruments regularly with a medical-grade, steam-permeable instrument lubricant to ensure smooth operation.
  • Sterilize using validated autoclave procedures or other approved sterilization methods according to healthcare facility protocols and the instrument’s intended use.
  • Store instruments in a clean, dry environment with tips and cutting edges protected from impact or contact with other instruments.
  • Inspect instruments before each use for wear, corrosion, misalignment, or damage. Remove any defective instrument from service until repaired or replaced.
  • Do not expose stainless steel instruments to bleach, strong acids, high-chloride solutions, or prolonged soaking, as these may cause staining, pitting, or corrosion.
  • Use each instrument only for its intended purpose to preserve precision, functionality, and patient safety.
