Clinical Application
Designed for controlled subperiosteal dissection and soft-tissue reflection, this instrument is used to elevate periosteum and soft tissue from bone surfaces to expose underlying osseous structures. Its 10 mm blade width and 20 cm length make it appropriate for use in oral and maxillofacial surgery, otolaryngology, reconstructive and plastic procedures, and select orthopedic applications where precise, atraumatic elevation is required.
Design & Configuration
The Langenbeck pattern features a flat, thin blade with a rounded edge that facilitates blunt and sharp elevation while minimizing tissue trauma. The 10 mm blade provides a balance between surface area for efficient reflection and a narrow profile for working in confined or delicate operative fields. The 20 cm overall length offers reach and leverage for deeper dissections without compromising tactile control.
