GDC Needle Holder Mayo Heger TC Tip – Straight (16cm) (Nh5042)
The Mayo-Hegar needle holder is a versatile instrument used in a variety of surgical procedures. It is particularly effective for handling larger, heavier suture needles due to its wide jaws, making it an essential tool in surgeries that require strong needle manipulation.
The needle holder features serrated jaws with a central groove designed to securely hold needles. It is commonly used to grip suturing needles during the process of closing wounds, ensuring precision and stability throughout the surgical procedure. This allows the dentist or surgeon to maneuver the needle through various tissues with ease.
Parts:
- Jaws: The jaws are shorter than the shanks, ensuring a firm grip on the needle.
- Joint: Allows smooth operation and stability during use.
- Handles: Ergonomically designed for better control.
The clamp mechanism effectively locks the needle in place, providing the surgeon with the ability to control the needle with accuracy during suturing.
