Tissue Forceps with Teeth

**Tissue Forceps with Teeth** are specialized grasping instruments in the **Surgical Instruments** category, distinct from dressing forceps by the presence of small, interlocking teeth at their tips. These teeth are designed to provide a **firm and secure grip on dense, fibrous, or slippery tissues**, minimizing slippage during surgical procedures. The most common type is the Adson Tissue Forceps, which features fine, delicate teeth. While they offer superior grip, the teeth can cause some trauma to the tissue, so they are typically used on tissues that will be removed or are less prone to damage (e.g., skin edges, fascia) rather than delicate internal organs. Tissue forceps with teeth are primarily used for **holding tissue during dissection, retraction, or suturing**, allowing the surgeon to manipulate the surgical field with precision and stability. Made from high-grade stainless steel and sterilizable, they are essential for many surgical specialties, providing the necessary grip for effective and controlled tissue manipulation during complex procedures.
