Conodent Mathieu Needle Holder – 170 mm

Product Description

The Conodent Mathieu Needle Holder (170 mm) is a premium surgical and orthodontic instrument engineered for secure needle retention and fluid handling during oral, periodontal, and maxillofacial procedures. Featuring an ergonomic palm-grip design equipped with a responsive spring-loaded handle and a reliable ratchet locking mechanism, it enables rapid, precise, and completely controlled one-handed operations. The straight, cross-serrated jaws ensure a firm, non-slip grip on suturing needles of various sizes, maximizing placement accuracy while minimizing micro-trauma to fragile soft tissues.

Fabricated entirely from high-grade medical stainless steel, this instrument offers exceptional structural durability, profound corrosion resistance, and total compatibility with demanding, repeated sterilization protocols. Its 170 mm length provides an optimal balance of deep intraoral reach and leverage, making it a staple for high-precision workflows in implantology, minor oral surgery, and orthodontics.

Key Features

• 170 mm Optimal Length: Engineered for extended intraoral reach and enhanced visibility in posterior regions.

• Ergonomic Palm-Grip: Designed to rest comfortably in the palm, dramatically reducing hand fatigue during long clinical sessions.

• Spring-Loaded Ratchet System: Allows the operator to easily lock, tighten, and release the instrument using a single hand.

• Cross-Serrated Jaws: Provides multi-directional friction to prevent needle twisting, slippage, or structural shearing.

• Premium Stainless Steel Composition: High-durability medical-grade alloy that resists pitting, staining, and degradation.

• Clinical Longevity: Reusable, highly corrosion-resistant, and fully autoclavable under standard clinical sterilization parameters.

Clinical Applications

• Dental Implantology: Secure suturing around healing caps and immediate-load sites.

• Periodontal & Soft Tissue Surgery: Precise tension management for mucosal flaps and gingival grafts.

• Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery: General soft-tissue closure and minor surgical ligations.

• Orthodontic Procedures: Efficient placement and twisting of ligatures, archwires, and elastics.

Technical Specifications

Clinical Advantage: The rapid-release nature of the Mathieu ratchet mechanism makes it significantly faster for continuous suturing loops compared to traditional finger-ring needle holders, making it highly favored in high-volume surgical environments.
