Wescott 21

Wescott 21

The Wescott 21 is a dental instrument designed specifically for manipulating amalgam in dentistry. It is a hand-held tool used to shape, compact and smooth the surface of amalgam within dental cavities. The Wescott 21 is made of high quality stainless steel to ensure durability and corrosion resistance. It has an ergonomic handle that provides a comfortable and secure grip during use.

The active end of the Wescott 21 is specialized in shape to perform various tasks in amalgam placement. It has a conical and rounded tip that is used to condense and compact the amalgam in the dental cavity. The wider, flatter tip is used to shape and smooth the surface of the amalgam, ensuring it fits properly to the surrounding tooth structure. By using the Wescott 21, the dentist can achieve a precise adaptation of the amalgam to the dental cavity, avoiding empty spaces and sharp edges that may be prone to the accumulation of bacterial plaque or cause discomfort to the patient.
