Is the wood finish smooth to prevent splinters?
Yes, each tongue depressor is crafted with a smooth, matte finish. The design focuses on patient comfort, featuring rounded ends and a uniform, splinter-free surface for a professional and gentle examination experience.
How many depressors come in a standard case?
Each case contains 100 individual tongue depressors. This bulk quantity is designed to support high-volume needs in medical offices, dental clinics, and hospital environments.
Are these tongue depressors professional-grade quality?
Absolutely. Sklar is a trusted brand, and these are professional-grade, factory-new instruments. They are engineered for clinical precision to ensure stability and reliability during mouth and throat assessments.

Each tongue depressor measures 6 inches in length by 0.75 inches in width, which is the standard size for effectively depressing the tongue and maintaining optimal visibility during examinations.
Can these be sterilized for reuse?

Do these come in a sterile package?
These specific tongue depressors are non-sterile. They are intended for use in general clinical examinations where a clean, disposable wooden implement is required.
Are they sturdy enough for firm pressure?

What is the expected lead time for shipping?
These items ship directly from the manufacturer with a typical lead time of 1-2 weeks.
Are these suitable for dental clinics?
Yes, they are an excellent choice for dental clinics, general practitioner offices, urgent care facilities, and hospitals. They pair perfectly with other diagnostic tools like penlights and examination gloves to create a complete exam station.
