Millennium 2-7402 Jennings Mouth Gag ENT

---

Millennium Jennings Mouth Gag | 7.5" Frame | Medium | 2-7402

The Millennium 2-7402 is a high-precision self-retaining oral retractor engineered for the specific requirements of tonsillectomies, adenoidectomies, and palatal surgeries. Following the classic Jennings pattern, this instrument provides a wide, stable surgical corridor by maintaining the patient’s mouth in a fixed, open position.

Manufactured in Germany from premium surgical stainless steel, the 2-7402 features a dual-hinged frame and a sophisticated side-ratchet locking mechanism. This allows the surgeon to incrementally adjust the degree of opening with one hand, ensuring the mandible is securely held without the risk of accidental closure during delicate soft-tissue dissection.

Technical & Clinical Advantages

• Precision German Engineering: The German-forged steel ensures superior structural rigidity. Unlike lower-grade alloys, this frame will not flex under the significant tension of the masticatory muscles, providing a consistent "rock-solid" field of view.

• Incremental Ratchet Control: The integrated ratchet system allows for fine, step-by-step expansion of the oral cavity. Once the desired exposure is achieved, the lock engages automatically, providing a fail-safe, hands-free retraction solution.

• Atraumatic Blade Geometry: The broad, curved opposing blades are designed to distribute pressure evenly across the dental arches or edentulous ridges. This minimizes localized trauma to the teeth, gums, and lips during prolonged procedures.

• Low-Profile Frame Design: The 7.5" frame is engineered to sit close to the patient's face, keeping the handles and locking mechanism out of the primary line of sight for the surgeon and the surgical microscope or loupes.

• Surgical-Grade Durability: The satin-finished stainless steel is resistant to corrosion and chemical degradation, maintaining its mechanical "click" and smooth hinge action through thousands of high-temperature sterilization cycles.

Applications

• ENT Surgery: Primary instrumentation for tonsillectomies, adenoidectomies, and UPPP (Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty).

• Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery: Exposure for cleft palate repairs, biopsies of the posterior tongue, and oropharyngeal tumor resections.

• Pediatric ENT: The medium (7.5") size is versatile, often serving as the primary gag for older pediatric patients and standard adults.

Condition & Quality Assurance

• Status: Used — In Excellent Condition.

• Integrity: The ratchet teeth are sharp and provide a secure, audible lock. The hinges move fluidly without "play" or binding. The stainless steel surfaces are free of pitting, rust, or deep scratches.

• Maintenance Requirement: As a reusable manual instrument, this mouth gag must undergo a validated decontamination and sterilization cycle (standard steam autoclave) in accordance with hospital protocols and Millennium’s Instructions for Use (IFU) prior to clinical use in 2026.

• Professional Standards: With over 25 years of experience in surgical hardware, Primis Medical ensures all specialized ENT instruments are inspected for mechanical safety and structural alignment.

Shipping & Handling

• Secure Logistics: Shipped in specialized protective packaging to ensure the ratchet alignment and hinge integrity are preserved during transit.

• Fast Dispatch: Ships within 1 business day.
