Fomon Nasal Rasp coarse teeth D/E 21cm

Clinical Application

This coarse-toothed nasal rasp is intended for controlled reduction and contouring of nasal osseocartilaginous structures. It is used intraoperatively to smooth bony ridges and spurs, refine dorsal humps, and dress osteotomy edges following medial or lateral osteotomies. The coarse tooth pattern facilitates efficient removal of small bone fragments and irregularities while allowing tactile feedback to the surgeon for precise contouring.

Design & Configuration

The double-ended configuration provides two working surfaces in a single instrument, reducing instrument exchanges during open or closed approaches. At 21 cm overall length the instrument offers extended reach for deep dorsal work and access to lateral nasal vaults while maintaining ergonomic control. The coarse tooth pattern is designed to abrade and level bone and firm cartilage; the geometry concentrates cutting action on contact areas to accelerate contouring while preserving surrounding soft tissue when used with appropriate technique.
