Fine Upwards Hook for Precise Intraoral and Perioperative Retraction
The OBWEGESER Retractor upwards curved, 5x16mm, 24.0 cm is a Class I medical device according to ISO 13485:2016. This fine, specialized hook with its upward-directed (superiorly curved) narrow tip is a precision instrument for oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMFS). It was designed for the gentle retraction and holding of tissue in hard-to-reach, superficial, or intraoral regions.
Product Highlights:
✔ Certified according to ISO 13485:2016
✔ CE marking Class I (Regulation (EU) 2017/745)
✔ OBWEGESER design with fine, upwards curved tip
✔ Very narrow, low blade (5x16 mm) for precise access in confined spaces
✔ High-grade stainless steel 1.4401/316L – corrosion-resistant and biocompatible
✔ Biocompatibility tested according to ISO 10993
✔ Atraumatic, fully rounded edges for maximum patient safety
✔ Optimal length of 24.0 cm for good reach and control during intraoral procedures
✔ Autoclavable and reusable
Advantages of the OBWEGESER Retractor (upwards curved, 5x16mm):
• Precise Upward Retraction: The upward-curved tip allows for targeted lifting and retracting of tissue superiorly (e.g., buccal mucosa, tongue, lip) for optimal view of the surgical site in the maxillary or vestibular area.
• Ideal for Intraoral Microsurgery: Perfectly suited for gentle presentation during removal of impacted teeth (especially in the maxilla), for apical surgeries, or for retracting the cheek during dentoalveolar procedures.
• Minimally Invasive Application: The narrow blade design allows for work with minimal trauma to surrounding tissue and is particularly suitable for sensitive intraoral regions.
• Excellent Visibility Control: Enables the surgeon to hold tissue aside precisely without obstructing the field of view – crucial for small, precise dissection steps.
• Versatile Application: In addition to intraoral surgery, also suitable for small extraoral approaches in the perioral region (e.g., for lip or minor cheek procedures).

Fields of Application:
• Oral surgery (removal of impacted teeth, apicoectomies in the maxilla)
• Periodontal surgery (access to deep pockets, flap operations)
• Minor reconstructive procedures in the vestibular oral area
• Assistance during suturing in hard-to-reach intraoral areas
• Removal of small benign lesions of the oral mucosa or lip
• Exposure of impacted maxillary canines
Important Application Notes:
• For use by oral and maxillofacial surgery or oral surgery personnel.
• Precision instrument for sensitive regions. Extreme caution is required to avoid injury to the thin oral mucosa, the parotid duct (Stenson's duct), or teeth.
• Before each use, inspect for cleanliness, sharp edges, and correct, intact curvature of the tip.
• The instrument is for gentle soft tissue retraction. Do not use for prying or mobilizing bony structures or teeth.
• During intraoral use, pay special attention to protecting the dental arch and gingiva.
• Due to the fine tip, protect from bending damage during reprocessing.
• Discard immediately if the specific tip geometry is bent or damaged.
