Orthopedic Bone Osteotome Straight 20.0 cm (8")

Straight Osteotome for Controlled Bone Preparation

The Smith Peterson Osteotome is a hand-held surgical instrument used for cutting, shaping, or removing bone during operative preparation. Its straight profile provides a direct working orientation, while the 8-inch overall length offers useful reach and handling clearance. The 5/8-inch width supports work across a defined area of bone without relying on an unnecessarily broad instrument. Together, these dimensions provide a practical option for bone preparation tasks that call for a straight osteotome with a moderately wide working surface. Its familiar format also supports consistent instrument selection and handling within routine surgical workflows.

Use Cases

• Cut or pare bone with a straight osteotome orientation.
• Shape or refine a defined area of bone using the 5/8-inch width.
• Use the 8-inch length when additional working reach is appropriate.
• Support controlled bone preparation where a hand-held osteotome is required.

Specifications
