WEDER TONGUE DEPRESSOR SMALL 1
V. Mueller - MO31
Device Description
A hand-held surgical instrument designed to displace and maintain the tongue in a fixed position, usually by depressing it towards the floor of the mouth. It is typically a metallic (e.g., high-grade stainless steel) device either with a straight shape, or more frequently smoothly bent at its center (e.g., to a 90? arch). The proximal end is used as a handle, while the distal end (usually serrated and may include holes) is used to depress the tongue. The device is used in oral surgery (e.g., during tonsillectomy). This is a reusable device.
