Goldman-Fox Gingivectomy Knives

A Goldman-Fox gingivectomy knife is a periodontal hand instrument for incising and contouring gingival tissue during surgery. Our listing offers four catalogue figures: Fig. 7, Fig. 8, Fig. 9 and Fig. 11. In addition, each figure comes in two handle patterns, giving eight choices in total, all stocked in Atlanta, Georgia.

How the Four Figures Differ

Within the Goldman-Fox family, each figure number marks its own blade profile and shank angle. Clinicians usually pick figures by the incision they plan and the area of the arch they need to reach. However, our supplier’s periodontal page lists these knives by number only, without written dimensions. So the product photos are your best reference for comparing blade outlines before you choose.

Standard Handle or Style 2

The standard knives come from one catalogue page, while the Style 2 versions come from the following page. Those Style 2 knives keep each blade figure but mount it on an alternative handle, one the supplier leaves unnamed. Therefore, the blade you get is the same figure either way, and the decision rests on handle feel. If your other periodontal instruments already use one look, matching it keeps the tray consistent.

Pairing Figures for Surgery Day

Many periodontists keep more than one Goldman-Fox figure on the surgical tray. For example, one figure may suit the initial incision, while another helps with finer contouring afterward. Then, a spare of the most used figure lets the team swap a dulled blade mid-procedure. Ask us if you need help matching our figures to a set you already own.

Sharpness, Inspection and Cover

Every knife leaves our shelf after a careful look by Intrace USA staff in the United States. On top of that, we stand behind each gingivectomy pattern for three years against manufacturing defects, regardless of handle style. The knives are packed non-sterile; process them through cleaning and an autoclave cycle before surgery.
