Frequently asked questions
Is this instrument made of high-quality stainless steel?

Can this tool be safely reused in a clinic?
Absolutely. The device is designed as a reusable instrument, engineered to maintain its structural integrity over time. It is a professional-grade tool meant for long-term integration into your veterinary practice.
Is the material safe for animals with latex allergies?
Yes, this product is 100% latex-free. It is not manufactured with natural rubber latex, making it a safe choice for veterinary patients with sensitivity concerns.
Is this the correct size for treating rabbits?

Does the design provide a secure, stable hold?
The instrument features a specialized tension-based design: - Tension coils at the base and along the arms provide the necessary resistance to keep the device stable. - Flat, contoured plates at the ends ensure a secure and comfortable interface with the animal’s jaw area.
Should I sterilize the tool before its first use?
Yes. This instrument is supplied non-sterile. It must undergo your standard facility-approved sterilization protocols before being used in a clinical or surgical setting.
Is this tool built to last under heavy use?
Yes. Beyond its robust stainless steel construction, the instrument is backed by a Lifetime warranty, reflecting its manufacturer’s confidence in its long-term durability and resistance to wear.
How heavy is this instrument during procedures?
The Merit Cheek Dilator is extremely lightweight, weighing only 0.01 lbs. This makes it easy to handle and maneuver during delicate veterinary procedures without causing extra fatigue for the medical staff.
Is this model suitable for professional surgical environments?
Yes, the instrument is manufactured to Sklar’s physician-grade standards. It is intended exclusively for professional use in veterinary clinics, surgical suites, and animal hospitals.
Does this require special maintenance after cleaning?
