Bishop Lip And Cheek Retractor, 13.5cm — Overview

The Bishop Lip and Cheek Retractor (S27-006-13) is a 13.5cm hand-held retractor used to hold the lip and cheek tissue clear of the surgical field during intraoral, dental, and maxillofacial procedures, giving the surgeon direct visual and instrument access to the teeth, gingiva, and adjacent bone.

Design

At a more compact 13.5cm compared with the longer Bauer-type retractors in this range, the Bishop retractor is suited to more localized intraoral work rather than the deep-field access needed in major orthognathic procedures — a smaller, more maneuverable instrument for routine lip and cheek retraction.

Clinical Use

This retractor is used in general dental, oral surgery, and maxillofacial procedures where the lip and cheek need to be held clear of a localized surgical or dental field, such as tooth extraction, minor intraoral biopsies, or focal bone procedures.

Material and Construction

Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel and hand-finished in Sialkot, Pakistan, with a smooth, atraumatic working surface suited to direct soft-tissue contact.

Sterilization and Care

Fully autoclavable and intended for repeated reuse. Routine inspection for surface damage or deformation is standard practice.
