The Enamel Hatchet – 1.5 mm is a specialized dental hand instrument used for refining cavity walls, cutting enamel, and shaping internal line angles during cavity preparation. With a blade width of 1.5 mm, this hatchet provides excellent access and control in both anterior and posterior restorations, particularly in Class II cavity preparations.
The flat, chisel-like blade with a straight cutting edge is designed to plane enamel and dentin surfaces, remove unsupported enamel, and create sharp internal line angles for better restorative adaptation. Its precise cutting ability helps clinicians achieve well-defined cavity margins and enhances retention form.
Constructed from surgical-grade stainless steel, the instrument is autoclavable, corrosion-resistant, and built for repeated clinical use. The ergonomic handle provides a secure, comfortable grip, ensuring optimal tactile feedback and minimizing operator fatigue.
