Miller-Colburn Nasal Rasp

Description

Miller-Colburn Nasal Rasp

The Miller-Colburn nasal rasp is a rhinoplasty rasp sold in a series of figures. Surgeons use it to reduce and smooth bone on the nasal dorsum.

Five figures in the series

We offer five figures, numbered 1 through 5. Each figure refers to a separate pattern within the series. Because our listing does not describe the differences between figures, we are glad to send photos of any figure you are considering.

Length

The catalogue gives a length of about 19 cm. That size sits in the middle of the usual range for nasal rasps. So it should feel familiar if you already use rasps from other series.

How surgeons use a series

A numbered series lets a surgeon keep several patterns with the same handle feel. For example, one figure might suit the early reduction, while another suits final smoothing. Then the set covers the whole dorsal step with one family of tools.

Ordering the right figure

First, check the figure number stamped on the rasp you want to replace, if you have one. Next, tell us that number and we will match it. If you are new to the series, ask us for photos of all five.

Caring for your Miller-Colburn nasal rasp

Brush the teeth thoroughly after every case to remove bone dust. Also rinse the rasp well so no detergent remains. Afterward, let it dry and run it through your usual sterilizer.

Buying a numbered figure

Our three-year warranty for workmanship defects applies to each numbered figure from 1 to 5. Meanwhile, we personally inspect each figure in Atlanta before it ships out. Our FAQ resource explains ordering and shipping. Steels for rasps in this series follow ASTM F899, which many hospitals reference. If you prefer a single fixed pattern, compare the Wiener nasal rasp.

Figure-numbered rasps suit professional users only. The care and sterilization help page discusses rasp images and nickel in stainless metal, and the shipping overview gives delivery times.
