Description
Serrated extraction forceps are specialized surgical instruments used in dental and oral surgery. Their primary function is to provide a reliable, non-slip grip on the tooth surface or root, which is particularly beneficial for deeply rooted teeth and helps prevent the crown from snapping off during extraction.
Key components of the forceps include:
- Handles: Ergonomically designed, often with texturing or perforations for a comfortable, secure, and non-slip grip, which reduces hand fatigue and allows for precise control.
- Hinge: Connects the handles to the beaks and concentrates the force applied by the dentist.
- Beaks (Jaws): The working ends of the instrument, specifically shaped and angled to fit the cervical part of a particular tooth's anatomy. The serrations inside the beaks enhance mechanical grasp on the tooth surface.
Specifications
The specifications of serrated extraction forcep sets vary depending on the specific instruments included and the manufacturer. General specifications include:
- Material: Typically crafted from high-quality, surgical-grade stainless steel (like French 420 grade or German stainless steel) to ensure durability, corrosion resistance, and longevity.
- Autoclavable: Fully reusable and designed to withstand repeated sterilization processes (autoclaving at 135°C is common).
-
Design Variations: Available in two main patterns:
- American Pattern: Features a horizontal (hidden) hinge and is often a straight-handled design, providing a clear line of sight.
- English Pattern: Features a visible screw at the hinge, bringing the fulcrum closer to the working end for greater leverage, typically with a plier-like handle design.
-
Anatomical Specialization: Individual forceps within a set have unique designs tailored for specific teeth:
- Maxillary (Upper) Forceps: Generally have a slight angle or two bends in the stem to facilitate access to upper teeth.
- Mandibular (Lower) Forceps: Often have beaks bent at an almost 90-degree angle to the handle to reach the lower arch.
- Specific Forceps: Individual instruments are designed for anterior teeth, premolars, molars (left and right specific versions exist for molars), and root fragments.
- Set Composition: Sets can range from a few universal forceps (like the #150 and #151 universal styles) to comprehensive kits containing 16 or more specialized forceps for every tooth type.
