The Andrew Tongue Depressor offers a wide range of benefits during oral exploration or surgery. Its principal use is to enlarge the sightline of the oral cavity and the oropharynx.
For this purpose, the instrument features a 90° angled blade with a long profile for deep explorations. In addition, the blade’s inner surface has serrations that face the tongue, ensuring minimal trauma.
Moreover, the Andrew Tongue Depressor has a blunt-edged profile to avoid inadvertent gingiva injuries. Furthermore, the handle has a streamlined design and features a curve at its bottom to rest the hand. As a result, surgeons prevent slippage and finger strain.
Manufactured in premium grade stainless steel to ensure the highest quality instruments in your operating rooms.
