First Line Area Specific Kit
Most of you use a power scaler for heavy debridement and have fine hand scalers, curettes, explorer, probe and mirror. Your fine scalers and curettes aren’t necessarily designed for the heavy debridement necessary in some cases.
Have your instruments been reduced in size from resharpening? When power scaling isn’t an option, we have suggested instruments to be used in conjunction with your current kits. These can be the first line for heavy debridement.
Handle Design
Weighing just 13 grams, PDT instruments are amongst the lightest on the market. Each instrument handle is made of solid resin that is both lightweight and durable.
The unique pattern on PDT instruments is known as knurling. PDT’s knurling features a criss-cross pattern with wider gaps between the grooves. This configuration allows for thorough cleaning as particles and debris are easily dislodged during sterilisation.
The knurling extends to the tapered end of the handle where it meets the shank; this provides complete tactile sensitivity. The changing pattern gives you greater rotational control - even when wet - and better pull force with a feather touch.
This ergonomic design allows maximum comfort and significantly reduces strain on the fingers and wrists, reducing the risk of musculoskeletal disorders over time.
Steel
PDT instrument tips are made from high-quality, 440A-grade stainless steel. Type 440A is a higher grade of cutlery steel with more carbon, allowing for better edge retention when properly heat-treated.
Over the years, PDT has developed a unique heat treatment and cryogenics formula to improve the quality of its steel tips. PDT instruments average a Rockwell C hardness of 59.
This results in sharper, harder, thinner blades that last longer and require far less sharpening.
Anatomically Colour-Coded
All PDT hand instruments are colour-coded for faster recognition and set-up.

PDT First Line™ Kit – Area Specific is a high-quality six-instrument periodontal kit designed for clinicians who need a versatile set of hand instruments for efficient periodontal therapy and detailed scaling work. This area-specific version focuses on instruments tailored to targeted root and periodontal anatomy, making it ideal for thorough debridement when power scaling alone isn’t sufficient
