CVD = Curved

STR = Standard

The Castroviejo caliper is a precision measuring instrument used in dental, ophthalmic, and microsurgical procedures to measure small distances accurately—usually in millimeters.

Advantages:

• Highly accurate (down to 0.1 mm in some models)
• Autoclavable (for surgical use)
• Compact and lightweight
• Durable and corrosion-resistant

Common Uses in Dentistry:

• Measuring ridge width or height before implant placement
• Determining flap thickness
• Verifying interdental space or papilla height
• Checking bone graft dimensions
• Comparing tooth size or crown width
