Castroviejo caliper 7 slightly curved tips, measures from 0-40mm in 1.0mm increments, adjustable thumb-screw tension

Controlled Dental Measurement with Curved-Tip Access

A Castroviejo caliper is a dental measuring instrument used to assess dimensions with controlled, readable positioning. This 7-inch model combines slightly curved tips with a 0–40 mm measuring range marked in 1.0 mm increments, giving clinicians a practical format for taking and comparing measurements during dental procedures. Its adjustable thumb-screw tension allows the operator to set the opening resistance to suit the task and handling preference, supporting deliberate adjustment as the caliper is positioned. The curved-tip profile can help bring the measuring points into contact while maintaining a clear working view. Its task-focused design supports a consistent measurement workflow without unnecessary complexity.

Use Cases

• Measure dental dimensions across the 0–40 mm range using the 1.0 mm graduated scale.
• Take and compare measurements during dental procedures where controlled caliper positioning is required.
• Use the slightly curved tips to approach measurement points while preserving a practical working view.
• Adjust thumb-screw tension to control the instrument’s opening resistance during handling and measurement.
• Use as a dedicated dental caliper for repeatable dimensional assessment within the instrument’s marked range.

Care & Handling

• Clean the caliper according to facility protocols and the applicable instrument-care instructions.
• Inspect the curved tips, graduated scale, and thumb-screw mechanism for visible damage or irregular operation before use.
• Handle the tips carefully to help preserve their alignment and measuring function.
• Store the caliper in a protected location to reduce the risk of impact or damage to the tips and adjustment mechanism.
