Castroviejo Micro Scissors TC 18 cm Curved

The Castroviejo Micro Scissors TC 18 cm Curved is a spring-action microsurgical cutting instrument with an overall length of 18 cm, built from AISI 420 stainless steel with a corrosion-resistant satin finish. The blades carry tungsten carbide inserts along the cutting edges — identified by the gold-plated ring at the base of the handle — which extend blade sharpness up to thirty times longer than standard stainless-only scissor blades. The curved blade configuration measures approximately 12 mm in cutting length, with blunt tips that reduce the risk of inadvertent tissue perforation during dissection. The double-ring spring handle with a knurled grip section allows controlled, one-handed blade activation without repositioning the fingers between cuts.

The T.C. Micro Scissors Spring mechanism returns the blades to an open position automatically after each cut, reducing hand fatigue across extended procedures. The fine curved tips allow the instrument to follow anatomical contours in confined intraoral spaces where straight scissors cannot adapt. Tungsten carbide inserts on both blades maintain a consistent shear angle throughout the instrument’s service life, supporting clean, single-motion suture and tissue cuts without fraying.

Periodontists, oral surgeons, and implant surgeons use Castroviejo Micro Scissors TC 18 cm Curved during mucosal flap trimming, suture removal, membrane trimming in guided bone regeneration, and soft tissue contouring around implant sites. The 18cm micro curved scissors length gives surgeons adequate reach into posterior quadrants without excessive wrist angulation, keeping the operating hand in a neutral position throughout the procedure.

Leader Surgical produces this instrument with verified tungsten carbide insert bonding and consistent blade curvature, delivering the cutting reliability that microsurgical procedures demand at every use.

What is the benefit of Tungsten Carbide (TC) inserts?
Tungsten carbide is significantly harder than standard stainless steel. It provides a cutting edge that remains sharp for much longer—up to 30 times longer than traditional models.
