Castroviejo Scissors T/C Insert 14 cm B/B Cvd

The Castroviejo Scissors T/C Insert 14 cm B/B Cvd. measures 14 cm in total length and carries curved blades with rounded blunt tips on both the upper and lower blade, the only configuration in the Castroviejo range where neither tip can pierce tissue on contact. The spring-action flat knurled handle operates by direct thumb-and-finger compression without finger rings, returning blades open between strokes. Tungsten carbide inlays coat both blade cutting edges, the lower blade carries one-side micro-serrations, and a matte satin body finish reduces glare under surgical lighting.

The bilateral blunt tip geometry makes this instrument a blunt dissection tool rather than a cutting instrument, both tips push and separate tissue planes without the risk of inadvertent puncture from either side of the blade. Dental Castroviejo Scissors TC 14cm Curved, Blunt End instruments advance through tissue layers by spreading rather than piercing, making them the appropriate choice when protecting adjacent structures from tip contact is the primary concern rather than tissue cutting.

14cmTC Insert, One Side Serration instruments of this B/B curved profile are used by oral and maxillofacial surgeons during guided bone regeneration procedures to reposition resorbable collagen membranes over bone graft sites, where any tip sharpness risks perforating the membrane and compromising the regenerative outcome. Periodontists select the Castroviejo Scissors T/C Insert 14 cm B/B Cvd. for blunt periosteal dissection during flap advancement, separating the periosteum from underlying bone without lacerating it. Ophthalmic surgeons use this configuration for conjunctival tissue manipulation adjacent to the corneal limbus, where neither blade tip should approach the ocular surface with a sharp point.

Leader Surgical instruments across the full Castroviejo B/B range are built to one standard, both tips ground to the same blunt radius, TC coating applied consistently, and spring tension calibrated so the blades spread tissue without excessive force on every single use.

What is the primary advantage of the “B/B” (Blunt/Blunt) tip design?
The blunt/blunt tips are rounded to prevent accidental trauma. This makes them ideal for blunt dissection, where the surgeon needs to separate tissue layers without cutting or piercing underlying structures like nerves or blood vessels.
