Silver Guarded Osteotome Archives

The Silver Guarded Osteotome is a specialized instrument designed for performing precise and controlled nasal osteotomies while protecting overlying soft tissues. The guard, often made of a softer metal like silver, is designed to slide between the bone and the skin, minimizing the risk of laceration, bruising, and damage to the angular vessels. This makes it an essential tool for both internal and external lateral osteotomies in rhinoplasty.

Key Features:

Protective metal guard shields the skin and subcutaneous tissues from the sharp osteotome blade.
Allows for a clean osteotomy while significantly reducing post-operative ecchymosis and edema.
Available in various widths and with straight or curved blades for different osteotomy paths.
The guard provides tactile feedback, helping maintain the correct subperiosteal plane.
Sharp, durable cutting edge ensures efficient bone division with controlled malleting.
A preferred instrument for surgeons prioritizing minimal trauma and faster patient recovery.
