A bone file is a handheld surgical instrument designed to cut and smooth bone surfaces during procedures. Clinically, it is used in orthopaedics, plastic surgery, and dentistry to refine bone edges, prepare graft sites, or reshape bone during reconstructive or corrective surgeries.
These devices are typically reusable, made from high-grade steel, and come in various shapes to suit specific surgical needs. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they are generally classified based on their intended use and risk level, with compliance requirements tied to manufacturing standards and sterilization processes.
