Its also known as Wieder Retractor features a right-angled serrated blade to temporarily hold the tongue down or to the side away from the tooth and root area during various oral surgical procedures. The retractor is specifically designed to protect the tongue during lower jaw procedures, where the tongue must be removed from covering the occlusal surface of the teeth. The end of the handle is curved for better control and the blades are available in two sizes to accomodate a range of patients. Its overall length is 140 mm and 150 mm.
The Weider Tongue Depressor, a trusted tool in otolaryngology and general surgery, is engineered to provide optimal visibility and access to the oropharyngeal cavity during procedures. Manufactured by NAZMED SMS SDN BHD under the renowned SMS brand, this surgical-grade instrument ensures both patient safety and practitioner efficiency.
Constructed from high-quality, medical-grade stainless steel, the Weider Tongue Depressor is autoclavable and corrosion-resistant, offering a durable and hygienic solution for repeated clinical use. Its broad, flat blade is specifically designed to gently but effectively hold down the tongue, facilitating procedures such as tonsillectomies, oral biopsies, and throat examinations.
The ergonomic handle ensures a comfortable, non-slip grip, providing the surgeon with precise control even during extended procedures. The smooth edges and polished surface minimize trauma to surrounding tissues, enhancing patient comfort and reducing post-operative complications.
This tongue depressor is also a preferred choice in dental and maxillofacial surgery due to its efficient design and reliability in maintaining a clear surgical field.
