Needle drivers are essential instruments for secure needle control during surgical suturing. In oral surgery and implant procedures, these instruments must provide a strong grip on larger suture needles while allowing precise placement and reliable knot tying during surgical closure.

Patterns for Every Surgical Scenario
This collection includes the most commonly used oral surgery needle holders, including Mayo-Hegar, Crile-Wood, Olsen-Hegar, and Mathieu needle drivers. Mayo-Hegar needle holders are the most widely used drivers in oral surgery, featuring thick jaws and strong gripping force for larger surgical needles used during extractions, implant surgery, grafting, and general surgical closure. Crile-Wood needle holders provide excellent needle control with slightly slimmer serrated jaws, making them popular among oral and maxillofacial surgeons for routine surgical suturing and implant closures. Olsen-Hegar drivers combine needle holding and suture cutting in a single instrument, while Mathieu spring-style holders offer a no-lock alternative for fast, repetitive suturing.
