Product Description

The Wassmund Soft Tissue Retractor is an essential oral, maxillofacial, and facial plastic surgical retractor engineered specifically to provide safe, non-traumatic soft-tissue displacement and mucoperiosteal flap protection during orthognathic and dental interventions. Designed with an anatomically curved blade face, this instrument allows surgeons to mobilize the cheeks, lips, and periosteum cleanly away from high-speed burs and bone saws without causing mucosal tears.

Built to provide an optimal balance between exposure reach and manual dexterity, this Wassmund Soft Tissue Retractor configuration features an overall tool length of 21 cm ($49). Handcrafted from premium operating room-grade German stainless steel to ensure a lifetime warranty against rust and material defects, its working end dimensions measure 33 mm long × 20 mm wide. The structural design incorporates a handheld, single-ended smooth blade configuration optimized for safe tissue manipulation without localized tear trauma. The ergonomic flat handle ensures operating assistants maintain steady manual counter-traction throughout extensive maxillofacial procedures.

Forged with an anti-glare satin matte finish, Retractor Maker manufactures the Wassmund Soft Tissue Retractor to withstand high-frequency autoclave sterilization cycles, providing oral surgery suites, dental implantology centers, and maxillofacial clinics worldwide with exceptional structural rigidity, corrosion resistance, and complete autoclave durability.
