Dual-purpose 17 cm needle holder with integrated scissor for suturing and cutting in oral surgery
The Waldent Olsen-Hegar Needle Holder/Scissor 17cm (5/115) is a combination instrument that integrates a needle holder and suture scissors into a single 17 cm instrument, eliminating the need to switch between two instruments during closure. The proximal portion of the jaws functions as a needle holder with serrated gripping surfaces, while a scissor blade set is incorporated near the hinge for immediate suture trimming after knot tying. This design is particularly efficient in oral surgery, implant, and periodontal procedures where rapid, uninterrupted suturing is required. Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel with a box-lock mechanism and fully autoclavable.
