Dental Surgery Scissors

Dental surgery scissors are surgical instruments that help to perform precise cutting and dissect soft tissues during dental operations. These scissors provide the surgeons with sharp and accurate tips for incising tissues and other surgical material. Grey Medical Instruments offers various dental scissors in German stainless steel with straight, angled, serrated, and fine tip patterns for optimum results.

Straight vs. Curved Dental Surgery Scissors: What’s the difference?

A number of different configurations are used in dental scissors depending on the cutting or trimming needed. Whether you choose the straight or curved depends on the specific dental procedure. Straight-tip scissors offer direct cutting capabilities, allowing for easier trimming of tissues. The curved blade scissors have an angled blade to access cavities that are hard to reach.
