Discoid-Cleoid Carver - Solid Handle 6mm
The Discoid-Cleoid Carver is a classic double-ended restorative instrument used to carve occlusal anatomy into amalgam and large composite restorations. The discoid end is a shallow disc-shaped blade with a sharp circumferential edge, ideal for shaping cusps and marginal ridges, while the cleoid end is a claw-shaped pointed blade suited to refining fossae, developmental grooves, and line angles. The carver is machined from stainless steel with a 6 mm knurled solid handle for balanced control during fine carving. Fully autoclavable and supplied non-sterile by Equate Instruments, it is ready for steam sterilisation.

Cleoid-Discoid Carver - Light Green Silicone Slim Handle
The Cleoid-Discoid Carver is a classic double-ended restorative carver for shaping amalgam and packable composite. The cleoid end is a pointed, claw-shaped blade used to carve pits, grooves, and line angles; the discoid end is a round, disc-shaped blade that sweeps cusp inclines and refines broader occlusal anatomy. The slim light-green silicone-sleeved handle from Equate Instruments cushions carving appointments and keeps the cleoid-discoid easy to pick out of a cassette. Stainless-steel tips hold their edge through repeated autoclaving and resist bending under carving force.
