About the Neivert Osteotome
The Neivert osteotome is a narrow nasal osteotome usually fitted with a guard beside the cutting edge. Registry entries from several manufacturers list straight guarded versions as well as curved versions made in left and right forms.
It is classed with the plastic surgery osteotomes: hand instruments tapped with a mallet to cut small bones and cartilage. Compared with the double-guarded Cinelli, the Neivert is typically narrower and is often listed with a single guard.
Some makers sell a closely related Neivert-Anderson pattern. Single-guarded and double-guarded variants exist, so the guard configuration and curve direction should be specified when ordering.
