Clinical Application
This instrument is designed to perform precise bone scoring and controlled osteotomies of the nasal bones during rhinoplasty, septorhinoplasty, and nasal fracture management. The 7 mm cutting width is appropriate for focal lateral or medial nasal bone mobilization where a narrow-profile osteotome is preferred for predictable bone breaks and minimal collateral damage to surrounding soft tissue.
Design & Configuration
The hexagonal handle provides a non-rotating grip and tactile control during placement and mallet-assisted impacts, improving force transfer and surgeon control. A 17 cm overall length offers reach into the nasal vault while maintaining a familiar hand-to-tip geometry for precise angulation. The chisel-style cutting tip is ground for controlled entry into cortical bone and predictable propagation of osteotomies.
