Cleaning Curette N°0 Yellow

MAP System® · Cleaning curette · N°0 yellow

The curette that came with the earlier N°0 kits

Bought your MAP set a few years ago, and the yellow curette has gone missing from the tray? This is the replacement. It is the colour-matched scraper that earlier MAP kits supplied for clearing residue from a Ø0.90 mm needle. Worth knowing before you order: PD's current Instructions for Use no longer name it. The cleaning step they now specify is stiffened floss for the standard needles and the MAP brush for the VPT bores.

› We would rather tell you this than sell it quietly. If you are equipping a new MAP set-up, CleanyFloss is what the current documentation calls for.
› Colour to colour. A yellow curette is sized for the yellow needle; using the wrong one is at best ineffective.
› It does not replace reprocessing. Clearing residue is the first step, not the whole decontamination cycle.

Should I be using floss instead?
If you are following PD's current IFU, yes – that is what it names. The curette remains available for practices whose kits were supplied with one and who have a working routine built around it.

Is it interchangeable between sizes?
No. Yellow for N°0, red for N°1, blue for N°2 – the same coding as the needles and plungers.
