Alexander Bone Gouge 10mm 18cm

Clinical Application

Designed for controlled osteotomy and contouring of bone, this gouge is used to remove or shape cortical and cancellous bone during procedures such as small- to medium-sized orthopedic reconstructions, craniofacial shaping, maxillofacial surgery, and selected ENT or reconstructive cases. The 10 mm cutting width provides a balance between efficient bone bites and precise tissue management, making it suitable for troughing, windowing, and gentle sculpting where preservation of adjacent structures is important.

Design & Configuration

The instrument features a concave gouge blade that produces a scooping cut, allowing controlled bites of bone with each stroke. An 18 cm overall length gives the clinician sufficient reach for deeper operative fields while maintaining tactile feedback and control. The 10 mm blade width is useful when a moderate, predictable amount of bone must be removed without resorting to larger osteotomes or powered burrs. The hand-held configuration supports both manual levering and light mallet-assisted techniques when required by the procedure.
