Description Function: To securely grasp and extract residual root tips and fragments left behind after a tooth extraction, often after initial luxation with an elevator. This minimizes trauma to surrounding bone and soft tissue. Design: They resemble small pliers but feature a long, slender design for...

Description Design: The instrument has a unique two-component design: a beak and a bumper. Beak: Placed on the lingual or palatal root surface of the tooth within the gingival sulcus, engaging the root. Bumper: Placed on the facial/buccal aspect of the alveolar ridge at the mucogingival junction, acting as the...

Description Purpose: The primary function is to securely grip and remove wisdom teeth from the alveolar bone socket, especially those that are impacted, decayed, or causing overcrowding. Material: They are typically crafted from high-quality, surgical-grade stainless steel to ensure durability, strength, and resistance to corrosion and...

Description of Components Each forceps is composed of three main parts:  Handle: This is the part grasped by the operator, often serrated or ergonomically designed to provide a secure, non-slip grip and allow for controlled force. Hinge: The hinge connects the two parts of the forceps...

Description Purpose: To grasp, loosen, and extract teeth from the alveolar bone with controlled force and rotation. Design: Long handles for leverage, angled or curved beaks to reach specific teeth (molars, roots) and fit anatomical contours. Types: Available in various patterns (Bayonet, Cowhorn, English Pattern) and right/left configurations...
