I asked my dentist this same question and she gave me a catalog
from:

    IDE Interstate, Inc.
    1500 New Horizons Blvd.
    Amityville, NY 11701

    800-666-8100 (Voice)
    800-433-3291 (FAX)

She also saves used cutters for me.   They may be too dull for
teeth, but they work fine on aluminum and steel.   It sure beats
paying $4 - $10 each.

You might find a copy of a similar catalog at the university
health center if you are in a hurry.
