swiss pattern, 5-1/8" (13.0 cm) Mini-Lambotte Osteotome is an instrument designed for use in cutting bone. This osteotome is crafted with a Swiss pattern. Osteotome offer significant advantages over drilling because they do not generate heat which can be damaging and also offer an increased level of tactile sensation. This instrument is available in a straight profile at twelve different lengths from 2.0 mm to 24.0 mm in 2 mm increments or in a set of nine. This instrument is also available in a curved profile in seven different lengths from 2.0 to 14.0 mm in 2 mm increments.

Additionally this instrument features a large, cylindrical handle with micro-serrations for added griping as well as a neck piece from which the blade extends making it firmly built. This instrument is available in seven sizes ranging from 6.0 mm to 32.0 mm and in either a curved or straight profile making it well suited for a number of diverse patient needs and surgeon preferences.

straight, 8" (20.0 cm)Stille Osteotome is crafted for use in neurosurgical procedures that require cutting or chiseling through bones. This osteotome features a chisel tip that can be used to scrape or sculpt bone. Additionally on the opposite end of the chisel affixed to the handle is a wide blunt end that can be hammered on to drive the chisel into bone. This instrument is available in eleven different widths ranging from 4.0 mm to 25.0 mm making it well suited for use in wide ranging procedures that require small modifications to skull bone or cuts through entire vertebrae.
