Operating from the world-renowned surgical instrument manufacturing hub in Sialkot, Pakistan, S.S. Surgimed stands as a premier OEM/ODM manufacturer for global healthcare brands.
In modern periodontics and subgingival scaling, the clinical efficacy of dental curettes depends entirely on blade edge geometry, shank flexural rigidity, and metallurgical integrity. As a premier custom OEM dental curettes supplier, S.S. Surgimed combines multi-generational forging craftsmanship with automated 5-axis CNC grinding and vacuum heat-treatment technologies. We specialize in producing private-label Gracey curettes, Universal curettes, Langer curettes, and specialized periodontal scalers engineered to meet strict international regulatory standards including ISO 13485:2016, ISO 9001, and EU MDR Class I requirements.
Global medical device procurement officers face mounting challenges: supplier consolidation, raw material certification, stringent UDI (Unique Device Identification) mandates, and batch-to-batch edge retention. S.S. Surgimed eliminates supply chain vulnerabilities by retaining 100% in-house manufacturing control—from raw stainless steel bar stock verification to final ultrasonic cleaning, passivated surface finishing, and custom OEM packaging.
We source certified high-carbon martensitic stainless steel (AISI 420B / 440A / 440C) and premium surgical Grade 5 Titanium alloys. Mill certificates and chemical composition reports accompany every production lot.
Computer-controlled 5-axis grinding machines ensure uniform blade curvature, accurate working angles (70° for Gracey, 90° for Universal), and exact shank angles across thousands of units.
Each curette undergoes rigorous quality inspection including Rockwell hardness testing (HRC 50-54), optical comparator dimensional verification, and autoclave steam testing (134°C).
A deep technical analysis of working blade geometries, offset angles, and ergonomic handle options for OEM custom production lines.
To assist clinical buyers and OEM brand managers in specifying custom dental curette orders, S.S. Surgimed maintains standard pattern libraries while offering full customization of working ends, terminal shanks, and handle diameters. Below is our engineering classification matrix for periodontal curettes:
| Curette Category | Pattern Variants | Blade Offset Angle | Cutting Edges | Primary Clinical Application | Metallurgical Options |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gracey Standard | 1/2, 3/4, 5/6, 7/8, 9/10, 11/12, 13/14, 15/16, 17/18 | 70° Offset to Lower Shank | 1 Cutting Edge (Lower Edge) | Deep Subgingival Scaling & Root Planing in Specific Anatomical Zones | Martensitic Stainless Steel / Titanium Nitride (TiN) Coated |
| Gracey Rigid & Extra Rigid | Complete Gracey 1/2 through 17/18 Series | 70° Offset to Lower Shank | 1 Cutting Edge (Thicker Shank) | Removal of Heavy, Tenacious Subgingival Calculus & Dense Deposits | High-Yield German Stainless Steel (AISI 440A) |
| Gracey After Five® (Extended) | 1/2, 3/4, 5/6, 7/8, 11/12, 13/14 | 70° Offset (Terminal Shank +3mm) | 1 Cutting Edge (Thinned Blade) | Periodontal Pockets > 5mm & Deep Root Surfaces | AISI 420B / Custom Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) |
| Gracey Micro Mini Five® | 1/2, 3/4, 7/8, 11/12, 13/14 | 70° Offset (Terminal Shank +3mm) | 1 Edge (50% Shorter Blade) | Narrow Furcations, Tight Concavities, and Deep Narrow Pockets | Ultra-Fine Grain Stainless Steel |
| Universal Curettes | Columbia 2R/2L, 4R/4L, Barnhart 1/2, 5/6, Younger-Good 7/8 | 90° Angle to Lower Shank | 2 Parallel Cutting Edges | Universal Scaling across Anterior & Posterior Dentition without Changing Instruments | AISI 420B / Satin Matte Finish |
| Langer Curettes | Langer 1/2 (Mandibular Posterior), 3/4 (Maxillary Posterior), 5/6 (Anterior) | 90° Face Angle with Gracey Shank Bends | 2 Parallel Cutting Edges | Combines Universal Blade Efficiency with Site-Specific Gracey Shank Bends | Stainless Steel / Anodized Color Rings |
Hand fatigue and Carpal Tunnel Syndrome are major concerns for periodontists. S.S. Surgimed manufactures ultra-lightweight hollow handles in 9.5mm, 10mm, and 11mm outer diameters. Hollow construction reduces overall instrument weight to under 18 grams while maintaining structural integrity during heavy scaling lateral pressure.
Choose from classic diamond knurling, waffle grid patterns, or smooth tactile silicone grips. We provide custom color-anodized aluminum or titanium handles for immediate clinical identification and streamlined CSSD tray sorting.
From raw stainless steel bar stock to sterile-ready private label products, examine our transparent production workflow.
Spectrographic analysis of incoming AISI 420/440 steel to verify chemical purity and grade compliance.
Drop forging of working blanks to establish grain alignment along the instrument shank and working tip.
Automated milling of box locks, working edge bevels, shank radii, and hollow handle threading.
Computerized vacuum hardening and sub-zero cryogenic tempering to achieve optimal HRC 50-54 hardness.
Hand honing by master craftsmen to guarantee razor-sharp cutting edges without wire burrs under magnification.
ASTM A967 citric acid passivation to eliminate free iron and form a chromium-oxide protective passive layer.
High-precision laser marking of your OEM logo, item catalog numbers, LOT codes, and GS1 DataMatrix UDI.
100% visual, dimensional, and functional testing before pouch, blister, or cassette tray final packaging.
Key innovations driving procurement decisions for global dental chains, medical catalog distributors, and military supply channels.
The industry is rapidly shifting toward Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) and Titanium Aluminum Nitride (TiAlN) thin-film PVD coatings. These coatings increase blade surface hardness above 70 HRC, dramatically reducing blade dulling during subgingival calculus removal and virtually eliminating the need for routine clinic re-sharpening.
Manual microscopic inspection is being augmented by high-resolution 3D optical profiling systems and AI-assisted vision software. This ensures that every OEM curette leaving the factory exhibits identical blade curvature, face angle tolerances, and bevel consistency within a 5-micron margin.
Global regulatory agencies now require direct part marking (DPM) for reusable Class I instruments. S.S. Surgimed provides turnkey GS1 DataMatrix laser engraving that survives hundreds of 134°C autoclave cycles, ensuring seamless hospital inventory tracking and recall safety management.
Leading international buyers are phasing out single-use PVC plastic pouches in favor of biodegradable polymers and recyclable sterilization cassette packaging. S.S. Surgimed works directly with distributors to co-design eco-friendly, compliant packaging formats.
