13 cm 18.5 mm x 20 mm Blunt, 3×3
What is it? A 13cm retractor with an 18.5mm x 20mm blunt working surface and a 3×3 tooth configuration, built for atraumatic tissue retraction during maxillofacial procedures.
Why blunt teeth? Blunt tips reduce the risk of unintended tissue puncture, making this retractor a considerate choice when working near delicate structures where a sharper grip could cause more harm than good.
What does the 18.5mm x 20mm dimension tell us? That’s the working surface size of the retractor’s business end, giving a fairly broad, stable contact area for holding tissue open without concentrating pressure into a single small point.
Why 3×3 teeth specifically? The 3×3 pattern spreads that blunt contact across nine points rather than one continuous edge, helping distribute retraction force evenly across the tissue being held.
How does 13cm length factor in? It’s a manageable, mid-range length suited to standard surgical fields, offering enough reach without unnecessary bulk in tighter access situations.
What’s it made from? Surgical-grade stainless steel, fully capable of withstanding repeated sterilization cycles without losing its precise tooth geometry.
Who would use it? Maxillofacial and oral surgeons who need reliable, atraumatic retraction as a standard part of their surgical tray.
