Obwegeser Chin Retractor 16cm – Mentum-Symmetry Aligner & Apex-View Genioplasty Shield

Solid-Phase Obwegeser Chin Retractor (16cm) for High-Precision Genioplasty

The Obwegeser Chin Retractor is a premier instrument in the facial reconstructive kit, specifically engineered for the stable displacement of the mentalis muscle and labial mucosa. Functioning as a high-performance mentum-symmetry aligner, this 16cm model features a specialized deeply curved blade that anchors beneath the inferior border of the chin, providing a clear window for horizontal osteotomies. Adas Instruments ensures that each genioplasty shield is balanced for center-point ergonomics, allowing the surgical assistant to provide steady retraction without obstructing the surgeon’s access to the mandibular midline. We ship USA, Europe & worldwide via DHL, FedEx, and UPS to deliver German steel instruments that surgeons trust for their anatomical accuracy and structural resilience.

Why Maxillofacial Surgeons Choose Our Chin Retractor

• Mentum-Symmetry Geometry: Features a specialized wide-radius distal hook to act as a versatile mentum-symmetry aligner, ensuring the soft tissues are retracted evenly across the midline.
• Apex-View Stability: Specifically designed with a long, flat handle to function as a reliable genioplasty shield, protecting the labial soft tissues from surgical burs during the chin-advancement procedure.
• Anatomical Contouring: The blade is meticulously curved to match the convex shape of the mandibular symphysis, preventing instrument slippage.
• Steady-Stance Resilience: Forged from high-tempered surgical stainless steel, engineered to maintain its structural geometry even under the significant tension of the mentalis muscle.

Primary Surgical Applications

• Exposing the mental region for horizontal sliding genioplasty.
• utilizing the mentum-symmetry aligner function to ensure centered placement of chin implants.
• Performing efficient genioplasty shield maneuvers to protect the mental nerve and labial mucosa during bone sawing.
• Assisting in the reduction of mandibular symphysis fractures.
