Instruments for holding the tongue and vestibule
These instruments, which you will find in this section, are designed to improve access and visibility during examination and treatment by holding the tongue and lips securely in position.
A tongue depressor is a basic instrument used to gently push the tongue down and to the side, allowing clear visibility and access to the pharynx and posterior areas of the oral cavity. Tongue depressors are available in different sizes and can be used on adults and children. Lip retainers are instruments used to gently hold back the lips (the vestibule) and keep the mouth open without causing patient fatigue or discomfort. They allow better access and a better view of the treatment area, especially if it is in the anterior region.
Lip holders are particularly useful for longer procedures where the patient needs to keep their mouth open for extended periods of time. They are also helpful in protecting the lips from accidental injury from dental instruments.
Tongue depressors are similar to tongue depressors, but are usually flatter and wider. They are used to gently flatten the tongue and push it aside for diagnostic purposes, such as examining teeth, gums and the inner surface of the cheeks.
