It is typically a firm plastic suction tip with a large opening surrounded by a bulbous head and is designed to allow effective suction without damaging surrounding tissue.

A Yankaur can also be used to clear operative sites during surgical procedures and its suctioned volume counted as blood loss during surgery.
