Description

The Castroviejo Needle Holder with Tungsten Carbide Inserts (MMI-60-128) is a high-precision microsurgical instrument developed for delicate suturing procedures requiring exceptional control and accuracy. Its fine straight tungsten carbide (TC) serrated jaws securely grasp surgical needles without slipping or rotating, enabling precise needle placement while minimizing tissue trauma during microsurgical and dental procedures.

Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, this needle holder provides excellent mechanical strength, outstanding corrosion resistance, and long-term durability. The satin/matte finish minimizes glare under operating lights, while the polished working ends allow smooth needle engagement and controlled manipulation. The gold-coated spring handles indicate the presence of tungsten carbide inserts, offering significantly improved gripping performance and superior resistance to wear compared with conventional stainless-steel jaws.

Designed with the classic Castroviejo spring-handle mechanism, this instrument delivers outstanding tactile feedback and effortless one-handed operation. The integrated locking mechanism securely maintains needle position throughout suturing while reducing hand fatigue during prolonged microsurgical procedures. Fully autoclavable and reusable, it is ideally suited for periodontal surgery, implantology, oral and maxillofacial surgery, endodontic microsurgery, soft tissue grafting, and other precision dental and surgical applications.

To maintain the performance, appearance, and service life of your stainless steel dental and surgical instruments, follow these care guidelines:

  • Clean instruments immediately after use to prevent blood, tissue, or debris from drying on the surface.
  • Wash using a neutral pH enzymatic detergent and a soft nylon brush. Avoid abrasive pads, steel wool, or harsh chemicals.
  • Rinse thoroughly with distilled or demineralized water to minimize mineral deposits and corrosion.
  • Dry completely before sterilization or storage, paying special attention to hinges, joints, and serrations where moisture can accumulate.
  • Lubricate hinged and moving instruments regularly with a medical-grade, steam-permeable instrument lubricant to ensure smooth operation.
  • Sterilize using validated autoclave procedures or other approved sterilization methods according to healthcare facility protocols and the instrument’s intended use.
  • Store instruments in a clean, dry environment with tips and cutting edges protected from impact or contact with other instruments.
  • Inspect instruments before each use for wear, corrosion, misalignment, or damage. Remove any defective instrument from service until repaired or replaced.
  • Do not expose stainless steel instruments to bleach, strong acids, high-chloride solutions, or prolonged soaking, as these may cause staining, pitting, or corrosion.
  • Use each instrument only for its intended purpose to preserve precision, functionality, and patient safety.
