Multifunctional Meter (5-13-15-17 mm)

The Multifunctional Meter (5-13-15-17 mm) is manufactured from German-grade corrosion-resistant surgical stainless steel with a passivated finish. The instrument measures 9 cm overall and features a distinctive flat, paddle-shaped handle; broader and thinner than cylindrical probe handles, providing a stable, controlled thumb-and-finger grip. The angled flat probe tip extends from the handle at a fixed angle, with depth band markings etched at 5, 13, 15, and 17-mm increments along the probe shaft. A companion variant (LS9-001) carries markings at 8-10-11mm for broader implant system coverage as a flat paddle probe implant meter.

As a Multifunctional Dental Bone Depth Measuring Probe, this instrument is designed to measure both osteotomy socket depth and horizontal bone dimensions within the same procedure. The flat probe geometry contacts bone surfaces with a broader surface area than wire-tip probes, improving tactile feedback during insertion. It withstands full autoclave sterilization at 134°C and is compatible with ultrasonic cleaning and chemical disinfection. Passivation guards the surface between sterilization cycles, and standard boil, performance, and shape quality-control tests confirm reusability before dispatch.

Oral surgeons and implantologists use the Multifunctional Meter (5-13-15-17 mm) during dental implant placement surgery. After completing the drilling sequence, the surgeon inserts the angled flat probe into the prepared socket. This Implant Socket Depth Probe Graduated Scale Tool delivers a direct millimetre reading at crestal bone level from the etched depth bands, confirming the socket matches the intended implant length at 13, 15, or 17 mm before fixture insertion begins.

Implant surgery leaves no room for guesswork between drilling and placement. Leader Surgical supplies this flat-paddle meter series because its non-standard graduation set covers implant lengths that standard probes often miss, giving implantologists the socket verification they need, matched to the exact implant lengths they place.

What do the graduation values (5, 13, 15, 17 mm) on the meter correspond to?
Each graduation mark corresponds to a clinically relevant implant length or bone depth reference point. The markings at 5, 13, 15, and 17 mm are specifically designed to match standard dental implant lengths commonly used in oral surgery, making this meter a direct chairside reference tool for choosing the correct implant size before final placement.
