  • Spatulas designed for use in dental preparatory and/or operative procedures. These instruments typically consist of a metallic (e.g., stainless steel) or plastic handheld instrument with a straight or curved thin. Flat, blunt distal tip. Some dental spatulas have working tips on both ends; others are double-ended instruments combined with picks and carvers at one end. Dental spatulas are used in the preparation of restorative materials (e.g., cement, composites, plasters); dental spatulas are also used occasionally to spread dental restorative materials during prosthodontic procedures or to shape wax during the making of dental impressions.
