Orthopedic Bone Osteotome Straight 20.0 cm (8")

Straight Osteotome Design for Controlled Bone Work

The Smith Peterson Osteotome is a hand-held surgical instrument used for cutting, shaping, or separating bone during appropriate operative tasks. Its straight profile supports direct instrument alignment, while the 8-inch overall length provides a practical working span for handling and positioning. The 3/8-inch width presents a defined working edge suited to focused bone manipulation. Together, these dimensions offer a familiar format for professionals seeking a straightforward osteotome for controlled, task-specific use. Its simple configuration also supports clear visual orientation during handling and integration into established instrument workflows.

Use Cases

• Cutting or shaping bone with a straight osteotome during appropriate surgical tasks.
• Applying a focused 3/8-inch-wide working surface where a narrower osteotome profile is appropriate.
• Using the 8-inch length to support direct positioning and controlled hand manipulation.
• Incorporating a straight osteotome into routine instrument setup and bone-work workflows.

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Clean the osteotome promptly after use according to facility protocols and the applicable instrument-care instructions.
• Inspect the straight profile and working edge before and after use for visible damage, deformation, or irregularities.
• Handle the instrument carefully to help protect its working edge and prevent contact damage during transport or processing.
• Store in a manner that keeps the osteotome protected from impact and separates it from instruments that could damage its working surface.
