The demonstration for sharpening a Gracey curette will be shown with a right handed-clinician. Left handed clinicians can proceed by using reverse directions. To sharpen a Gracey curette, begin with the odd numbered end of the curette. Hold the instrument vertically in your non-dominant hand with the toe pointed toward you. Use a firm palm grasp and brace the top shank of the instrument with your thumb. The cutting edge to be sharpened will be on the right side of the blade. See the Gracey curette video: For more information on Gracey curettes:
