An excavator is a dental hand instrument that is commonly used for removing caries (tooth decay) and for preparing the tooth cavity for restorations, such as fillings in molars, premolars, and canines in both the upper and lower jaw.

The instrument features a sharp, spoon-shaped tip that allows dentists to effectively remove soft, affected tooth tissue without unnecessarily damaging healthy tissue.
