Atraumatic Tissue Handling
Cooley-pattern tips grip thin tissue with a fine, even serration. The slim-line version gives an even clearer view of the needle and tissue under magnification — ideal for papilla and recession procedures.
ZEPF-Line Design
The round ZEPF-Line handle is comfortable to rotate, and the guide pin prevents the jaws from scissoring under pressure. Made in Germany by Helmut Zepf; the standard version is 22.815.17.
