Description
Hu-Friedy Numbered Pattern Rongeurs are classic, pattern-specific rongeurs designed for controlled trimming and recontouring of alveolar bone and removal of gross tissue during oral surgery and periodontal procedures. These long-established designs are commonly included in general oral surgery armamentaria where predictable cutting action and familiar handling characteristics are preferred.
This group includes both end-cutting and side-cutting numbered patterns used for direct or lateral bone reduction depending on access requirements.
Clinical Applications
Numbered Pattern Rongeurs are commonly used for:
-
Trimming and recontouring alveolar bone
-
Removal of sharp bony edges following extraction
-
Alveoloplasty
-
Gross tissue and bone reduction prior to closure
End-cutting patterns are typically selected for direct access to bone surfaces, while side-cutting patterns are used for lateral bone reduction in confined or interproximal areas.
Included Patterns
R1 – End-cutting - 16.5cm
R15 – End-cutting - 16.5cm
R18 – Side-cutting - 16.5cm
R5 – Side-cutting - 17cm
Design & Construction
- Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel
- Pattern-specific jaw geometry
- Single-action hinge mechanism
- Designed for repeated sterilization
Summary
Hu-Friedy Numbered Pattern Rongeurs provide time-tested solutions for bone and tissue removal using familiar, widely recognized surgical patterns.
