For dental suturing around gingival margins, the working-end profile matters. This 15 cm Micro Crile-Wood has smaller, thinner straight jaws with tungsten carbide gripping surfaces for holding and guiding surgical needles.
Its finger-ring handles and locking ratchet retain the familiar Crile-Wood handling style. The Micro designation refers to the size and thickness of the jaws, not a shorter instrument. The Black Edition finish completes the design.
This model is a good option when a less bulky working end is preferred for needle placement in limited space. The slimmer jaw profile distinguishes it from the standard Crile-Wood, while the 15 cm length and conventional locking mechanism remain familiar.
