| The Dingman Mouth Gag from Delta Med Surgical is engineered to meet the extreme visibility requirements of cleft palate surgery. The system’s innovative design utilizes a circular frame that rests outside the mouth, supporting multiple adjustable components. This allows the surgeon to retract the cheeks laterally, depress the tongue inferiorly, and stabilize the upper jaw simultaneously—creating a perfectly stable and expansive "working window" for the most delicate reconstructive procedures. Key Performance Features -
Adjustable Lateral Retractors: The frame is equipped with two sliding cheek retractors that can be moved along the circumference of the frame and locked into place. This provides customized exposure based on the patient's unique facial anatomy.
-
Spring-Loaded Tooth Hooks: The gag features adjustable tooth hooks (incisor clamps) that provide a secure, non-slip grip on the upper dental arch. The spring-loaded mechanism ensures constant tension without applying excessive pressure to the teeth or alveolar ridge.
-
Interchangeable Tongue Blades: The set typically includes a variety of tongue blade sizes (Small, Medium, Large). Each blade features a central suction channel or a "groove" to manage secretions and provide a clear line of sight to the soft palate.
-
Independent Retraction Points: Because each retractor on the Dingman frame moves independently, surgeons can achieve asymmetrical retraction, which is often necessary in cases of unilateral cleft lips or deviated pharyngeal structures.
The Delta Med Surgical Quality Standard Forged from Premium Operating Room Grade German Stainless Steel, the Dingman Mouth Gag is built for lifetime durability. The high-tension springs and locking screws are precision-machined to ensure they do not loosen during surgery. The instrument is fully autoclavable (134°C) and manufactured under strict CE, ISO 13485, and FDA guidelines. - Technical Specifications
