Probes, such as button probes and hollow probes, are indispensable instruments in medical diagnostics and surgery. They are specifically designed to examine hard-to-reach areas of the body. They are used to probe wound cavities or fistula tracts to assess their depth and direction. Additionally, they are excellent for locating and removing foreign bodies. Their precise construction and versatile application make them essential tools in daily practice.
Cotton carriers, on the other hand, are used to take swabs from areas to be examined. They are particularly useful for collecting samples for microbiological or cytological tests, such as for infections or cancer screening. Their ease of use and efficiency make them an indispensable diagnostic tool.

In dentistry, a probe is an instrument for examining teeth and gums. It is part of the basic dental instrument set, which is usually freshly applied by the dental specialist before starting treatment for each patient. A distinction is first made between probes for examining hard tissue and probes for examining the gingiva (periodontal probes). In addition, dental probes are used in dental technology.
Blunt button probes, for example the Bowman button probe, which he originally developed as a tear duct probe, are used to probe a fistula duct of a tooth fistula. A mouth-antrum connection (MAV), the opening of the maxillary sinus after the tooth extraction of a molar in the upper jaw, can also be diagnosed with this.
The Miller needle is a probe that is used in dentistry to find and probe root canals.
