A Blumenthal-pattern bone rongeur with beaks set at a 90° angle, used to trim and recontour alveolar bone during oral surgery. The angled beaks help reach awkward areas of the mouth, such as the thin bone between tooth sockets, making it well suited to smoothing sharp margins after extractions. This model is 14cm in length.
- 90° angled beaks for access to harder-to-reach areas of the mouth
- Box joint with a double leaf spring that reopens the jaws between bites
- Suitable for minor oral surgery and alveoloplasty
- Japanese-standard (JIS) SUS 410J1 stainless steel, fully autoclavable
FAQs
What is a Blumenthal 90° rongeur used for?
It trims and recontours alveolar bone and removes small bone fragments, commonly after extractions to smooth sharp margins before suturing. The 90° beaks help reach awkward sites, such as inter-radicular bone and the bone between tooth sockets.
How is a rongeur different from a bone file?
A rongeur trims and removes bone with a nibbling action, while a bone file smooths the surface afterward.
What material is this instrument made from?
It is manufactured from hardened Japanese-standard (JIS) SUS 410J1 stainless steel and withstands repeated autoclave sterilisation.
Often used alongside a bone file to finish alveolar bone contouring after extraction, or with a Friedmann bone rongeur.
