The Bauer Sigmoid Notch Intra Oral Retractor is a specialized maxillofacial retractor engineered to engage the mandibular sigmoid notch during ramus osteotomies.

Product Description
The Bauer Sigmoid Notch Intra Oral Retractor is a specialized maxillofacial surgical retractor engineered specifically to provide secure, stable exposure of the mandibular ramus during orthognathic and reconstructive surgery. Designed with an anatomical tip contoured to seat directly into the sigmoid notch of the mandible, this instrument allows surgeons to retract the masseter muscle and periosteal envelope safely away from cutting instrumentation.
Engineered for procedural versatility, this Bauer Sigmoid Notch Intra Oral Retractor is offered in dedicated Left and Right orientation notches to match patient anatomy. It features a slightly curved blade paired with a hollow hooked handle that provides ergonomic leverage and fatigue-free control. Surgeons can choose between a standard model ($79) and an illuminated configuration ($149) featuring an integrated fiber-optic light guide that delivers shadowless illumination into deep intraoral corridors.
Manufactured from medical-grade surgical stainless steel with a glare-absorbing satin finish, Retractor Maker supplies the Bauer Sigmoid Notch Intra Oral Retractor non-sterile and fully autoclavable inside protective packaging, providing maxillofacial surgeons with high durability and surgical precision.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the blade and handle design advantages of the Bauer Sigmoid Notch Intra Oral Retractor?
The Bauer Sigmoid Notch Intra Oral Retractor is a solid one-piece instrument, so its performance comes from blade geometry and handle ergonomics. It is made from surgical-grade stainless steel (aisi 304/410) & optional optical glass fiber for glare-free, corrosion-resistant service.
What is the Bauer Sigmoid Notch Intra Oral Retractor used for?
The Bauer Sigmoid Notch Intra Oral Retractor is used in orthognathic surgery to hook into the sigmoid notch between the coronoid and condylar processes, retracting soft tissue to expose the lateral surface of the ramus.
Which surgical procedures is it for?
It is indicated for sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO), intraoral vertical ramus osteotomy (IVRO), mandibular fracture reduction, and condylar neck surgery.
What material and finish are used?
The retractor is fabricated from surgical-grade stainless steel with an anti-glare satin matte finish that eliminates optical reflections under surgical operating lights and loupes.
Is the Bauer Sigmoid Notch Intra Oral Retractor reusable and autoclavable?
Yes. The entire Bauer Sigmoid Notch Intra Oral Retractor (including the fiber-optic model) is 100% reusable and fully validated for pre-vacuum steam autoclave cycles (134°C / 273°F).
Can components and blades be ordered separately?
Because this is a solid instrument, each orientation is sold as a standalone unit. Hospitals typically order paired sets (Left and Right) to equip maxillofacial surgical sets.
Can custom modifications or private-label markings be ordered?
Yes. Retractor Maker provides custom blade widths, universal fiber-optic cable adapters, and laser marking for hospital asset tracking upon request.
What is the standard lead time and delivery timeframe for orders?
In-stock orders take 5 business days to inspect and dispatch, followed by 7 business days for worldwide express delivery. Back-order units take 17 to 20 business days to manufacture and 9 business days for delivery.
