Obwegeser Nasal Saddle Punch

The Obwegeser Nasal Saddle Punch is the longest instrument in the nasal punch range at 21 cm, and that length defines where it is used. Maxillofacial approaches to the nose — through a Le Fort osteotomy, a degloving incision or an intraoral route — place the target considerably further from the surgeon’s hand than a transnasal approach does. A standard 16–18 cm instrument runs out of reach.

The saddle profile of the punch head is shaped to sit astride a bony ridge or septal edge, so the bite is taken from a defined margin rather than from a flat surface where the punch could skid. Multiple bite sizes allow the surgeon to match removal volume to the correction required.
