Fergusson Mouth Gag Parllel jaws 16cm

Clinical Application

This instrument provides reliable retraction of the oral cavity to expose the teeth, tongue base, tonsillar pillars and oropharynx. It is used in ear, nose & throat and maxillofacial procedures (including tonsillectomy/adenoidectomy, intraoral repairs, dental surgery and select airway procedures) where stable, hands-free mouth opening and consistent exposure are required. The 16 cm length is intended to provide adequate reach for adult oral cavity retraction and intraoral access.

Design & Configuration

The parallel-jaw configuration delivers evenly distributed pressure across the dental arches and mucosal surfaces, reducing point-loading and the risk of localized tissue compression. Parallel jaws are especially useful when symmetric exposure is needed and when protecting dentition is a priority. The Fergusson pattern is a long-established mouth-gag geometry that facilitates sustained retraction and unobstructed access to posterior oral and pharyngeal structures.
