Butterfly

Description

Butterfly

Sometimes you only need one piece from a set. The Butterfly hand instrument is a small stainless steel tool that belongs to a 15-piece set for periodontal and surgical work. We sell it singly, so you can replace a lost item or keep a spare. The catalogue does not describe its exact form, so we keep this page brief.

Why We List It on Its Own

Sets are handy, but single pieces go missing. Also, one piece may wear faster than the rest. Rather than buy a full set again, you can order just this item. In short, it keeps your set complete.

Check the Photo First

Because the catalogue gives no drawing notes, the photo is your best guide. Compare it with the piece in your set before you order. If you are unsure, send us a note through our FAQ page. That way, you get the right item the first time.

Questions to Ask Before You Buy

• Does the photo match the piece in your set?
• Do you need one spare or more than one?
• Will it go in a cassette with your other set pieces?

Cleaning, Sterilization and Storage

The instrument ships non-sterile. So clean it with care first, then sterilize it in line with your clinic routine. After that, you can reuse it many times. Store it in a slot or cassette so the tip does not knock against other tools. Before each use, look it over for any damage.

Standards, Cover and Links

Its stainless steel is in keeping with ASTM F899. We have the Butterfly hand instrument made to our specification, and it gets a careful look in the United States. Any build fault is ours to correct within three years against manufacturing defects. Another single piece from such sets is the chain hook.
