The Russel Davis Tongue Blade 29x67mm is a compact surgical and examination instrument designed to assist with controlled retraction of the tongue and provide improved visualization of the oral cavity. Its smaller dimensions make it suitable for procedures and examinations where a more compact tongue blade is preferred, allowing the clinician to position the instrument with precision while maintaining a clear working or viewing area.
The blade measures 29 x 67mm, providing a practical balance between working surface and maneuverability. The tongue blade is intended to gently hold or depress the tongue when access to the oral cavity, oropharyngeal area, or other accessible structures is required. Its compact profile can be particularly useful in dental, oral, ENT, and general clinical examination settings, depending on the procedure and clinician preference.
The Russel Davis design provides a straightforward instrument profile that is easy to handle and position. A smooth working surface helps support controlled contact with the tongue while minimizing unnecessary interference with surrounding structures. The dimensions also make the instrument convenient for situations where a smaller retraction surface is more appropriate than a larger tongue blade.
Manufactured for professional clinical use, the instrument is designed with durability and repeated handling in mind. Its construction supports routine inspection, cleaning, and sterilization according to the material and facility-approved reprocessing protocol. Proper cleaning after use is important for removing biological material and maintaining the instrument’s condition. Where the instrument is intended for reusable applications, sterilization should always be performed according to the manufacturer’s validated instructions and the healthcare facility’s established procedures.
The Russel Davis Tongue Blade 29 x 67mm is useful as part of dental examination sets, ENT instrument collections, oral examination kits, and general surgical or clinical instrument trays. Its compact size makes it a practical option for clinicians seeking a tongue retractor that offers controlled positioning without an unnecessarily large working surface.
For healthcare professionals, instrument selection should be based on the specific procedure, patient requirements, and preferred surgical technique. The 29 x 67mm dimensions provide a clearly defined working size for clinicians who require a compact tongue blade for examination or retraction applications.
