Lighted WaveCurette
Bionix Lighted WaveCurette Ear Curettes
The Lighted WaveCurette combines built-in illumination with a distinctive wave-like tip designed to grip and remove cerumen more effectively than a smooth loop. That ridged, wave-patterned tip catches wax on the way out instead of pushing it deeper, giving clinicians better first-pass removal while the integrated light source keeps the ear canal clearly visible throughout the procedure - no need to juggle a separate otoscope light in one hand and a curette in the other.
Our collection features the Bionix Lighted WaveCurettes (2230), supplied in packs with a round polypropylene handle and a 2.5 mm tip. These are non-sterile and single-use disposable, which matters for cross-contamination control in busy primary care, pediatric, urgent care, and audiology settings where one-patient-one-instrument is the standard. The round handle offers a stable, comfortable grip for controlled movement in a narrow canal.
Buyers most often ask whether the 2.5 mm tip is appropriate for their patients: it's a mid-range size that works well for adult and older pediatric canals, balancing reach with maneuverability. Because the light is part of the curette itself, visualization stays consistent as you work - a real advantage over unlit curettes where shadowing can hide impacted wax. And since each curette is disposable, there's no reprocessing time or sterilization overhead to factor in; you open a fresh unit for each patient and discard it after.
