A needle that rotates mid-pass ruins a suture line. Dental surgeons, periodontists and implant teams who buy Castroviejo needle holder instruments want jaws that grip fine needles securely, and this straight 18cm design delivers that control for 5-0, 6-0 and 7-0 sutures.

Carbide Jaws, Spring-Action Control

•        Tungsten carbide inserts on both jaws carry a cross-serrated surface that holds the needle steady through every pass.

•        A double-spring, spring-action lock responds to light finger pressure for fine, controlled movements.

•        The knurled handle gives a secure grip throughout long procedures.

•        The 18cm straight profile adds reach without blocking your view of the site.

Each Castroviejo needle holder for sale here uses surgical-grade stainless steel with a passivated, matte finish, and it suits autoclaving and all standard sterilisation procedures.

Steady Hands, Cleaner Sutures

Accurate needle placement depends on a secure grip, and a secure grip reduces tissue trauma. Tungsten carbide resists wear far better than plain steel, so the jaws keep their bite through regular use across dental microsurgery, periodontal surgery, implant surgery and fine general suturing.

Anyone sourcing a Castroviejo needle holder online also gets an ARTG-listed instrument backed by a one-year warranty.
