The Standard Tongue Depressor offers a wide array of surgical benefits. Its principal use is to protect the tongue from other instruments and broaden the surgeon’s field of view during exploration.
For this purpose, the instrument features a double-ended profile to press down the tongue from multiple angles. In addition, the blades have blunt edges that are ideal to minimize gingiva and other mucosal injuries.
Moreover, the Standard Tongue Depressor features a solid, central handle that enhances gripping. Furthermore, the smooth surfaces of the handle minimize the risk of slippage and finger strain.
Manufactured in premium grade stainless steel to ensure the highest quality instruments in your operating rooms.
