Proximal Instrument

A proximal instrument is a specialized tool used in medical, dental, or scientific procedures to access areas close to the body's surface or near critical structures. It allows practitioners to reach internal or hard-to-access regions with precision while minimizing damage to surrounding tissues. For example, a dental proximal instrument helps clean or treat the spaces between teeth, facilitating accurate work without affecting neighboring areas. Overall, these instruments are designed for accuracy and safety when working near delicate or confined spaces within the body or other systems.
