Dressing or tissue forceps?

Dressing forceps have serrations only, so they don't puncture. Tissue forceps have teeth that hook into tissue. For skin closure most surgeons prefer toothed forceps, because they need less squeeze. For dressings, gauze, suture and fragile tissue, use dressing forceps.

Frequently asked questions

What are dressing forceps used for? Applying and removing dressings, packing wounds, removing sutures, and handling tissue or suture without piercing it.

Why bayonet dressing forceps? The offset keeps the hand out of the line of sight in narrow openings such as the nose or ear.

What does TC add? Tungsten carbide tips with a finer, longer-lasting grip.
