Fine needle placement can be awkward when the working end takes up too much room. This 14 cm Mathieu needle holder uses slim, straight tips for a narrower approach around gingival margins and other confined areas during dental suturing.
The bowed spring handles open as pressure is released, and the locking catch holds the needle between adjustments. A high-polished stainless steel finish completes the compact instrument, which keeps the familiar Mathieu grip while giving the clinician a thinner jaw profile.
The thin tips are the main reason to choose this version. They offer a less bulky working end when there is limited room near the stitch, while the 14 cm length keeps needle placement close to the operator's hand.
