{"product_id":"surgiworld-unc-15-periodontal-probe-dp121b","title":"SurgiWorld – UNC 15 Periodontal Probe","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGraduated Millimeter Markings, 1 to 15mm:\u003c\/strong\u003e The probe tip is marked at every millimeter from \u003cstrong\u003e1 to 15mm\u003c\/strong\u003e, with banding at the 5th and 10th mm for fast visual reference. This continuous millimeter graduation makes the UNC 15 particularly useful for tracking subtle changes in pocket depth over multiple appointments, giving clinicians more data points compared to probes with selective markings only. It is especially valuable for monitoring early to advanced periodontal disease progression where accuracy at each millimeter matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClinical Applications:\u003c\/strong\u003e The UNC 15 is used to measure sulcular and pocket depths around each tooth, assess bleeding on probing (BOP), record gingival recession and clinical attachment levels (CAL), and identify furcation involvement in multi-rooted teeth. It is a go-to instrument for periodontal charting, treatment planning, and post-treatment monitoring across general dentistry, periodontics, and dental hygiene practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSingle-Ended Design:\u003c\/strong\u003e The single-ended configuration keeps the instrument lightweight and easy to handle during detailed probing sequences. It is particularly preferred by clinicians who use a dedicated probe tray setup or those who want a straightforward, focused instrument for periodontal charting without a secondary working end.\u003c\/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuild \u0026amp; Sterilization:\u003c\/strong\u003e Constructed from high-grade stainless steel with a knurled handle for a firm, non-slip grip in wet clinical conditions. Fully autoclave-compatible up to 135°C, suitable for repeated sterilization cycles in busy dental practices, hospitals, and dental school clinics.\u003c\/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eRecommended for \u003cstrong\u003eperiodontists, general dentists, dental hygienists, and dental students\u003c\/strong\u003e who require a reliable, single-purpose periodontal probe with full 1–15mm graduated markings for thorough and consistent pocket depth documentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\\n","brand":"SurgiWorld","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67751022166330,"sku":"DP121B","price":39.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0826\/2975\/5194\/files\/DP121B_1.webp?v=1792584790","url":"https:\/\/thedentalsolutions.ca\/products\/surgiworld-unc-15-periodontal-probe-dp121b","provider":"Dental Solutions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
