- Explorers are used to examine teeth for decay (caries), calculus and other abnormalities. - They have thin, flexible tips that taper to a sharp point and come in various single end and double end patterns. - All Nordent explorer tips are made from spring-tempered stainless steel and are machine ground to exacting tolerances. Each tip is then hand-sharpened and formed into its final shape by expert craftsmen. **For further product information, please contact Chat Support**
