Denhardt Mouth Gag - 12 cm
The Denhardt mouth gag is a ratcheted self-retaining retractor that holds the jaws apart using two moulded tooth-engaging blades. This 12 cm size features asymmetric molar blades, one with a ridged, atraumatic grip surface and one with a smooth cupped pad, which straddle opposing posterior teeth and distribute bite force evenly. A serrated ratchet between the finger-ring handles locks the opening at the chosen width. Made from stainless steel with a moulded grip insert, this gag is designed for anaesthetic and oral-surgical use where dependable single-point fixation is preferred to full-arch props. Equate Instruments supplies it non-sterile and fully autoclavable after removal of the insert for complete processing per the clinic's protocol.

Roser-Konig Mouth Gag - 16 cm
The Roser-Konig mouth gag is a plier-style self-retaining retractor with a central ratchet and angled, serrated jaws that bite gently on opposing posterior occlusal surfaces.

The curved shanks allow the jaws to wrap around the cheek and seat cleanly on the molars without crowding the anterior field. A screw and ratcheted rack between the handles let the operator lock the mouth open at a specific width and fine-tune it intra-operatively. Machined from stainless steel, the gag is fully autoclavable and supplied non-sterile for standard in-clinic reprocessing. Equate Instruments recommends a pre-use bench check of the ratchet mechanism before every case.
