After Gracey 13/14 Curette is selected for distal posterior pockets deeper than 5mm where the standard-length 13/14 shank cannot bypass the crown or occlusion to reach the base of the pocket.
The defining feature is a terminal shank 3mm longer than the standard 13/14, keeping the full standard blade width rather than the shortened blade used on the Mini pattern, so the extra reach comes from shank length alone.
Clinically, the After 13/14 is used for deep scaling and root planing on the distal surfaces of second and third molars during active periodontal therapy, typically paired with the After 11/12 for matching mesial reach. Double-ended, medical-grade stainless steel, corrosion resistant, fully autoclavable.
