Obwegeser Ramus Periosteal, V-Notched, 17.5cm — Overview

The Obwegeser Ramus Periosteal, V-Notched (S27-156-00 family) is a 17.5cm periosteal elevator available in 7.0mm and 9.0mm widths, distinguished by a V-shaped notch at the working tip, designed for periosteal elevation specifically around the mandibular ramus during sagittal split osteotomy.

V-Notched Design

The V-notch at the working tip allows this elevator to straddle or engage a specific bony edge or landmark along the ramus more precisely than a flat-tipped elevator, helping the surgeon maintain controlled, accurate periosteal separation at this specific anatomical location during ramus osteotomy exposure.

Two Widths

The 7.0mm and 9.0mm widths let the surgeon match the elevator to the specific ramus anatomy and extent of exposure needed.

Clinical Use

This elevator is used specifically in sagittal split ramus osteotomy for precise periosteal elevation around the ramus, part of the Obwegeser orthognathic surgical technique.

Material and Construction

Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel and hand-finished in Sialkot, Pakistan, with the V-notch precisely formed at the working tip.

Sterilization and Care

Fully autoclavable in both widths. The V-notch and working edge should be inspected before each use for nicks or burrs.
