Killey Scissors, Curved
Curved Killey scissors used for cutting tissue in oral and maxillofacial surgery, made from stainless steel for repeated theatre use.
Killey scissors are a surgical scissor associated with oral and maxillofacial surgery, where their curved blade helps the surgeon reach and cut tissue at angles that a straight blade would struggle to access. This curved version is designed for dissecting and cutting soft tissue during procedures in and around the mouth and jaw, giving the surgeon better visibility and control when working in a confined anatomical space.
Because oral and maxillofacial procedures often involve delicate tissue close to important structures, having a scissor shape suited to the curvature of the surgical field helps the operating team work more precisely. Made from stainless steel, Killey scissors are built to be reusable and are cleaned and autoclaved between cases like other surgical steel instruments.
They are typically kept as part of maxillofacial, dental surgery or ENT instrument sets in hospitals and specialty clinics, where curved cutting instruments are regularly needed for procedures around the oral cavity and surrounding tissue.
