Bone Ridge Mapping Caliper 6.5″ Ring Style

Bone Ridge Mapping Caliper 6.5″ – Ring Style

Description

The Bone Ridge Mapping Caliper 6.5″ – Ring Style is a precision surgical dental instrument used to measure the width of the alveolar ridge — a critical assessment step before dental implant placement and other oral surgical procedures. Ridge mapping helps clinicians evaluate bone thickness transgingivally (through the soft tissue) without raising a surgical flap, allowing accurate assessment of alveolar ridge dimensions for implant planning and restorative decision-making.

Designed with an ergonomic ring-style handle and long arms that extend to measure up to approximately 35 mm, this instrument delivers controlled and repeatable measurements. The inward-angled tips improve adaptation to bone contours, while the clearly graduated metric scale allows clinicians to obtain reliable readings. Constructed from high-quality stainless steel, the caliper withstands repeated sterilization and is suitable for daily clinical use.

Key Features

• 6.5″ (Approx. 16.5 cm) Ring-Style Design — Comfortable finger rings and ergonomic grips provide secure control during surgical measurement.

• Graduated 0–35 mm Scale — Clear and easy-to-read markings support precise ridge width assessment.

• Inward-Angled Tips — Designed to conform to alveolar ridge contours for accurate bone measurement.

• Adjustable Arms — Allow customized adaptation to patient anatomy for reliable readings.

• Stainless Steel Construction — Durable, corrosion-resistant material suitable for repeated sterilization and long-term use.

• Autoclavable & Reusable — Safe for routine reprocessing and clinical workflows.

Applications

• Alveolar Ridge Assessment: Measures bone width prior to dental implant placement to guide implant size and positioning.

• Surgical Planning: Supports decision-making in oral and maxillofacial surgery.

• Restorative and Orthodontic Planning: Helps evaluate bone volume for prosthetic and orthodontic treatment.

• Implantology: Provides essential data in pre-implant assessment and ridge mapping protocol.

Ideal For

• Dental implant specialists and oral surgeons.

• Prosthodontists planning implant-supported restorations.

• Orthodontists assessing ridge anatomy.

• Dental technicians and laboratory professionals.

• Dental students learning surgical measurement techniques.
