Castroviejo Marker

The Castroviejo marker is a graduated measuring compass (caliper marker) used in periodontal microsurgery, implantology and aesthetic-zone soft tissue procedures to measure and mark exact distances on gingiva, mucosa and bone. This collection holds the Helmut Zepf Castroviejo marker compass No. 57.010.16, graduated to 20 mm and 9 cm long, made in Germany and intended for comparison measurement.

The Zepf Castroviejo Marker Compass

The No. 57.010.16 is a graduated caliper-style marker: two fine tips set the distance, the millimeter scale reads it, and the tips transfer the measurement to tissue or bone. Helmut Zepf specifies it for comparison measurement only.

All Castroviejo Markers are crafted from premium German surgical stainless steel — fully autoclavable, corrosion-resistant, and built with smooth, precise adjustment mechanisms for long-term accuracy.

Its fine tips mark without significant trauma to delicate tissue.
