Dental Retractor – Markham-Meyerding Hemilaminectomy Retractor – NES-2387

18cm Side Blade 2.5cm wide
Length: 18cm
Side blade width: 2.5cm
Function: retraction for deep or extended surgical access
Material: stainless steel, fully sterilizable
The Markham-Meyerding Hemilaminectomy Retractor (NES-2387) brings a longer, broader-bladed design to procedures requiring deep tissue retraction.
At 18cm overall length with a 2.5cm-wide side blade, it’s built to hold back tissue across a larger or deeper surgical field than smaller, shorter-bladed retractors can comfortably manage.
The wider side blade distributes retraction pressure across a broader surface area, which helps reduce localized tissue trauma compared to narrower instruments working under similar force.
That matters particularly in procedures where sustained retraction over a longer period is needed to maintain visibility and access.
Its extended 18cm length gives surgeons the reach necessary for deeper surgical fields, allowing the handle to remain accessible and easy to control even when the working end is positioned well into the operative site.
This makes it a practical choice whenever a shorter retractor would require awkward hand positioning or limited leverage.
Constructed from surgical-grade stainless steel, this retractor is built to endure the mechanical demands of extended retraction work and the sterilization cycles standard in surgical practice, maintaining its blade shape and rigidity over repeated use.
