Gillies Needle Holder With Scissors 16cm

Switching between a needle holder and scissors mid-suture breaks operative rhythm the Gillies Needle Holder With Scissors 16cm eliminates that interruption entirely. This combined instrument integrates serrated needle-gripping jaws with built-in scissors at the shank, handling both suture placement and cutting without instrument exchange. The 16 cm extended length reaches deep intraoral fields while offset ring handles keep the hand clear of the sightline. Solid stainless-steel construction covers the full body with balanced ring handles at mid-shank for controlled handling throughout combined suturing tasks.

Two instruments in one grip, the Gillies needle holder scissors combined dental design cuts procedural handling time directly. Serrated jaws grip the suture needle firmly on closure, preventing rotation under driving force. The built-in scissors trim the suture immediately after placement without releasing the instrument. As a result, the surgeon completes drive-and-cut sequences in one continuous motion. Furthermore, the 16 cm extended shank keeps the hand outside the operative sightline, maintaining clear visual access throughout deep-field suture placement and trimming tasks.

Oral surgeons and dental specialists performing deep-field suturing need an instrument that places and cuts without switching tools. The Gillies Needle Holder With Scissors 16cm suits combined suture placement and cutting where a Gillies needle holder scissors offset ring instrument must streamline operative flow in deep intraoral fields.

Leader Surgical manufactures this instrument for oral surgical and specialty dental programs where combined needle holder and scissors performance are daily procedural requirements.
