Description

The smallest, most precise scissors in the Hu-Friedy surgical line — built for delicate cutting, flap refinement, and suture trimming in confined intraoral spaces.

Hu-Friedy Iris Scissors are compact, narrow-bladed precision scissors designed for the kind of fine soft-tissue work where a larger instrument would compromise control or access. At 11.5 cm / 4.5", they offer exceptional tactile feedback and cutting accuracy in tight operative fields — periodontal flaps, microsurgical sites, and anywhere precision matters more than power.

When to Choose Iris Scissors

  • When trimming delicate soft tissue in tight or highly visible operative areas
  • When refining surgical flaps with precision and minimal trauma
  • When cutting sutures in confined spaces where a larger scissor would be unwieldy
  • When working under magnification (loupes or microscope) where instrument size and glare control matter
  • In microsurgical and periodontal procedures demanding the highest level of cutting control

Choosing Your Configuration

Design/Shape

  • Curved — Follows anatomical contours; preferred for flap refinement and tissue trimming around curved surfaces
  • Straight — Direct cutting action; preferred for suture cutting and straight-line tissue work

Material/Finish

  • Stainless Steel — Standard surgical stainless; reliable, consistent cutting performance at the entry price point
  • Super Cut — One serrated blade for enhanced grip and cutting efficiency on slippery or delicate tissue; reduces tissue push-away
  • Perma Sharp — Enhanced edge retention for longer-lasting sharpness between sharpenings; preferred for high-volume practices
  • Black Line — Anti-glare black finish reduces reflection under operatory lighting and magnification; ideal for loupe or microscope-assisted procedures

Key Features

  • Compact 11.5 cm / 4.5" length — maximum control in confined intraoral spaces
  • Small, lightweight profile — enhanced tactile feedback and maneuverability
  • Narrow, sharp blades — clean, precise cutting with minimal tissue trauma
  • Curved and straight configurations — select based on access and technique
  • Four material options — Stainless Steel, Super Cut, Perma Sharp, Black Line
  • High-quality Hu-Friedy manufacturing — consistent performance and instrument longevity

Clinical Applications

  • Periodontal flap surgery — tissue trimming and flap refinement
  • Microsurgical procedures requiring maximum precision
  • Suture cutting in confined or highly visible operative areas
  • Implant soft-tissue management
  • Any procedure where instrument size and cutting precision are critical
