Description
The Bionix Safe Ear Curette is a flexible plastic curette line designed to be safer than stainless steel curettes, because the tip flexes instead of digging in. Seven color coded styles make the right size easy to grab mid-procedure.
- Flexible plastic – safer on the canal than rigid stainless steel curettes
- Color coded – each of the seven styles has its own color
- 75-count variety kit – every style in one box for stocked rooms
Flexible Curettes That Put Safety First
These curettes are indicated for impacted cerumen and for foreign bodies occluding the ear canal. Their flexibility is what makes them safer than stainless steel curettes, reducing the risk of injury if a patient moves during the procedure. Each style is molded in its own color, so staff can identify sizes at a glance across the tray. The curettes are single-use, which eliminates sterilization costs and reduces the risk of cross-contamination between patients. Fifty curettes come in a single pouch per box rather than individual wrapping, keeping them easy to access. The variety kit holds 75 curettes, with 10 of each style plus 15 additional white FlexLoop curettes.

Why Clinicians Choose Safe Ear Curettes
Not every removal needs illumination. For routine curettage, this line gives the control of a shaped tip with a forgiving, flexible material, at a per-box cost that suits high-volume primary care and pediatrics.
- Forgiving on contact – flexible tips reduce injury risk when patients flinch or move
- Zero reprocessing – single use ends the autoclave cycle for curettes entirely
- Instant style ID – color coding speeds tray setup and restocking
- Pediatric friendly – the 2mm InfantScoop and flexible material suit small, sensitive canals

Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose plastic curettes over stainless steel?
Bionix designs these curettes to be safer than stainless steel because the flexible plastic reduces the risk of injury to the ear canal. Single use also removes sterilization costs.
How are the curettes packaged?
Each box holds 50 curettes in a single pouch. They are not individually wrapped. The variety kit holds 75 curettes in one box.
What is in the variety kit?
The kit holds 10 curettes of each of the seven styles plus 15 extra white FlexLoop curettes, for 75 total.
Are the curettes reusable after cleaning?
No. They are single-use instruments. Discarding after each patient reduces cross-contamination risk and removes reprocessing work.
Is a procedure code associated with curettage?
Bionix lists CPT 69210 for the curettage procedure with this line. Coding and coverage decisions rest with the provider.
