Product Description ▼
The Valdent USA #4 Stainless Steel Double-End Plastic Filling Instrument is a versatile and essential hand instrument designed for placing, packing, and contouring composite resin and amalgam restorative materials during dental procedures. Crafted from durable surgical-grade stainless steel with two working ends, it offers functional flexibility and reliable performance.
Key Features & Benefits
- Dual-Ended Versatility: Features two working ends designed for different applications in material placement and contouring. The specific shape of the #4 instrument includes a small paddle/spatula on one end and a slightly broader condenser on the other, ideal for navigating complex anatomy.
- Durable Construction: Made from high-quality, corrosion-resistant surgical stainless steel, the instrument ensures exceptional longevity and resistance to repeated sterilization cycles.
- Optimal Handling: Designed with an ergonomic, well-balanced handle (often textured or knurled for grip) that provides a secure, comfortable grip, enhancing tactile sensitivity and minimizing hand fatigue during prolonged use.
- Smooth Finish: The working ends are highly polished or treated to minimize the sticking of composite resins or amalgams to the instrument, facilitating easier placement and shaping.
- Reusable and Autoclavable: Fully autoclavable and sterilizable (up to 136°C or 275°F), meeting stringent hygiene standards and built for repetitive use in a professional clinical setting.
- Packaging: The product is supplied as a single instrument (1/Pk).
Intended Use

- Place and condense restorative materials into cavity preparations.
