OBWEGESER CURVED UP 7MM X 25MM 24,0CM

OBWEGESER RETRACTOR • UPWARDS CURVED • 7x25MM • 24.0 CM • CE CLASS I • ISO 13485:2016

Medium Upwards Hook for Enhanced Intraoral and Perioral Exposure

The OBWEGESER Retractor upwards curved, 7x25mm, 24.0 cm is a Class I medical device according to ISO 13485:2016. This larger variant with a wider (7 mm) and taller (25 mm) upwards curved tip is a versatile instrument for oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMFS). It offers improved holding capacity and stability for retraction tasks requiring more soft tissue control.

Product Highlights:

✔ Certified according to ISO 13485:2016
✔ CE marking Class I (Regulation (EU) 2017/745)
✔ OBWEGESER design with medium-sized, upwards curved tip
✔ Medium blade (7x25 mm) for stable tissue retraction with good visibility
✔ High-grade stainless steel 1.4401/316L – corrosion-resistant and biocompatible
✔ Biocompatibility tested according to ISO 10993
✔ Atraumatically rounded edges for safe application
✔ Optimal length of 24.0 cm for excellent leverage and control
✔ Autoclavable and reusable

Advantages of the OBWEGESER Retractor (upwards curved, 7x25mm):

• Stable Upward Retraction: The larger, upward-curved tip enables secure lifting and holding of larger soft tissue areas (e.g., entire buccal mucosa, lip, or tongue base) for optimal visibility in the maxillary, sinus, or floor of mouth region.
• Enhanced Exposure for More Complex Procedures: Ideal for more demanding oral surgical procedures such as removal of larger impacted teeth (maxillary wisdom teeth), sinus lift procedures, or for exposure during antral windows.
• Improved Tissue Control: The additional width and height provide more secure tissue anchorage and reduce the risk of slipping during the procedure.
• Versatile in Intraoral and Perioral Approaches: Suitable for both deeper intraoral work and small extraoral approaches in the lip, nose, or medial cheek area.
• Ergonomic Balance: The combination of size, length, and curvature provides the surgeon with good control while maintaining sufficient force transmission.

Fields of Application:

• Oral surgery (removal of maxillary wisdom teeth, apical surgeries)
• Preprosthetic surgery (sinus lift, ridge augmentation)
• Removal of larger benign lesions of the oral mucosa (fibromas, mucoceles)
• Access to the maxillary sinus (Caldwell-Luc operation)
• Reconstructive procedures in the vestibular area
• Minor aesthetic procedures in the perioral region

Important Application Notes:

• For use by oral and maxillofacial surgery or oral surgery personnel.
• Precision instrument for sensitive regions. Extreme caution is required near the parotid duct (Stenson's duct) and branches of the infraorbital nerve.
• Before each use, inspect for cleanliness, smoothness of edges, and correct curvature.
• The instrument is for soft tissue retraction. Do not use as a lever for bony structures or for tooth extraction.
• During intraoral use, pay attention to protecting the dental arch and sensitive gingiva.
• The larger tip requires conscious, measured force application to avoid over-hooking or crushing tissue.
• Discard immediately if the tip is bent or damaged.
