swiss pattern, 5-1/8" (13.0 cm) Mini-Lambotte Osteotome is an instrument designed for use in cutting bone. This osteotome is crafted with a Swiss pattern. Osteotome offer significant advantages over drilling because they do not generate heat which can be damaging and also offer an increased level of tactile sensation. This instrument is available in a straight profile at twelve different lengths from 2.0 mm to 24.0 mm in 2 mm increments or in a set of nine. This instrument is also available in a curved profile in seven different lengths from 2.0 to 14.0 mm in 2 mm increments.

straight, 7" (18.0 cm) Alexander Chisel is crafted for use in surgical procedures that require cutting, scraping and reshaping of bone. This chisel features a long shaft and on one end features a blunt, flat end for hammering while the other a sharpened blade style end. The lack of a designed handle area increases the versatile of this instrument because it can be gripped in any way that makes the surgical maneuver the most effective. This chisel is available in six different sizes in 2.0 mm increments from 4.0 mm to 14.0 mm making it well suited for small and large tasks.
