Obwegeser mandibular awl 5 1/2 slightly curved

Controlled Access for Mandibular Instrument Handling

The Obwegeser mandibular awl is a hand-held awl designed for creating or guiding a small opening during mandibular instrument work. Its slightly curved profile supports a controlled approach when a straight path is less convenient, while the 5 1/2-inch overall length provides useful reach in the hand. A 12x55mm blade or prong size identifies the working end for consistent instrument selection and handling. The focused design helps integrate the awl into workflows that require deliberate positioning, tactile control, and access around contoured anatomical surfaces.

Use Cases

• Use for awl-related mandibular tasks requiring a slightly curved approach.
• Position the curved working end where a straight instrument path is less suitable.
• Use the 5 1/2-inch length to support controlled hand placement and reach.
• Select for workflows requiring a defined 12x55mm blade or prong dimension.
• Handle as a dedicated awl for deliberate opening or guidance tasks.

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Clean promptly after use according to facility procedures and the applicable instructions for use.
• Inspect the curved profile and blade or prong for damage, deformation, residue, or loss of finish before handling.
• Use controlled handling to avoid impacting the working end against hard surfaces or other instruments.
• Store clean and protected so the curved working end is not subjected to unnecessary contact or bending.
