Cartilage Crushing Block Teflon

Description

Cartilage Crushing Block Teflon is a unique surgical device that allows for precise manipulation of cartilage tissue during different surgeries. It is especially beneficial in rhinoplasty (nose reshaping) and otoplasty (ear reshaping), but it may also be used in other reconstructive treatments that need precise cartilage sculpting.

Key Features and Benefits:

Material: The block is constructed from Teflon, a kind of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) noted for its excellent
Durability: Teflon is very resistant to wear and tear, therefore the instrument may be used again.
Corrosion resistance: Teflon does not corrode or deteriorate over time, ensuring its usefulness.
The remainder of the instrument is often built of high-quality stainless steel, resulting in a strong and dependable construction.
Functionality: The crushing block consists of two adjustable stainless steel arms that meet on a Teflon platform. This platform performs an important function.
Adjustability: The arms may be moved to produce various sized apertures in the platform, enabling the surgeon to accept differing cartilage thicknesses.
Non-stick surface: The smooth Teflon surface prevents cartilage from adhering to the block during manipulation. This guarantees that:
Precision: The surgeon may do more accurate crushing and sculpting of the cartilage.
Control: The non-stick feature enables for more fluid movement of the cartilage, reducing the chance of ripping or injuring the tissue.
Ergonomic Design

Many cartilage crushing blocks are ergonomically built, providing a pleasant grasp for the surgeon. This lowers hand strain and fatigue during prolonged treatments. Some versions may additionally incorporate extra features such as tongs to aid in the mobility of the cartilage fragment.
