Minnesota Retractor, Large
The Minnesota Retractor is the workhorse cheek-and-lip retractor for third-molar extractions and implant placement in the posterior mandible and maxilla. This large variant pairs a broad curved blade on one end with a shorter lip-retraction curve on the opposite end, letting the surgeon retract cheek, lip, and flap tissue with a single instrument. The retractor is machined from a single piece of polished stainless steel with a smooth curved body that sits comfortably in the operator's palm. It is fully autoclavable and supplied non-sterile. Equate Instruments offers this large Minnesota as a dependable primary retractor for oral surgery trays and impacted-third-molar procedures where broad, steady exposure is needed.

Fibre-Optic Minnesota Retractor
The Fibre-Optic Minnesota Retractor is an illuminated variant of the classic Minnesota design.

A standard fibre-optic cable connector at the base couples the instrument to the surgical light source used by the clinic. The body is machined from stainless steel and can be autoclaved; check the cable manufacturer's instructions for compatible sterilisation cycles.
