Signature-Craft Tessier Spreading Forceps (17 cm) for Advanced Craniofacial Expansion
The Tessier Spreading Forceps are indispensable instruments in the craniofacial tray, specifically engineered for the precise expansion of osteotomy sites. Functioning as a high-torque bone spreader, this instrument features a unique reverse-action or spring-loaded design that allows the surgeon to apply consistent outward pressure to mobilize bone segments. Adas Instruments ensures that each maxillofacial spreader is forged with a robust hinge and cross-serrated tips, providing a multi-point secure hold that prevents the instrument from slipping during high-force maneuvers. We ship USA, Europe & worldwide via DHL, FedEx, and UPS to deliver German steel instruments that surgeons rely on for reliability during complex orbital and midface reconstructions.
Why Surgeons Choose Our Tessier Spreading Forceps
- Powerful Expansion Geometry: Features specialized outward-opening tips to act as a versatile bone spreader, facilitating the safe widening of bone gaps.
- Superior Utility: Specifically designed at 17 cm to function as a reliable maxillofacial tool, providing ideal leverage for both adult and pediatric craniofacial cases.
- Enhanced Grip Surface: The cross-serrated tips ensure the bone spreader remains firmly seated within the corticotomy line without damaging the bone edges.
- Apex-Performance Reliability: Forged from high-density surgical stainless steel to maintain spring tension and jaw alignment through repeated sterilization cycles.
Surgical & Clinical Applications
- Expanding osteotomy sites during the treatment of Tessier craniofacial clefts.
- utilizing the bone spreader function to mobilize cranial vault segments in craniosynostosis repair.
- Performing efficient maxillofacial tool maneuvers to widen midface osteotomies for graft placement.
- Grasping and prying bone segments during reconstructive orbital surgery.
