The terminal shanks on orange excavators are extra-long to reach deep into the cavity preparation. All excavators are made of high-carbon stainless steel, which is formed and precision ground by skilled craftsmen before being hardened for maximum sharp edge retention and durability. Excavators have a wide diameter, light weight handle that provides optimum support, reduces hand fatigue, and improves power.
Carious dentin is removed with the aid of excavators. For any use, Orange Instruments has a full line of “spoon” and “blade” excavators in a variety of shank lengths and blade widths.
