Tooth Forceps Fig. #52 is used by dentists and oral surgeons use as a specialized instrument for atraumatic (minimal damage) extraction of upper molar and premolar roots. These forceps feature specific design elements that allow for optimal control, stability, and access during the extraction process.
Key Features:
- Angled beaks: The beaks angle upward precisely to engage the crown and root anatomy of upper molars and premolars.
- Sharp tips: The sharp and narrow tips of the beaks allow them to separate the periodontal ligament (PDL) fibers surrounding the root without causing trauma.
- Serrated inner surfaces: The birds serrate the inner surfaces of their beaks to secure a grip on the root, preventing slippage during extraction.
- Ergonomic handles: The handles have finger rings and palm rests designed for positioning hands comfortably and providing leverage when applying force.
- High-quality materials: Typically made from durable stainless steel for strength, corrosion resistance, and ease of sterilization.
Uses:
- Extraction of upper molar and premolar roots, including single, bifurcated, and trifurcated roots.
- Removal of root tips and fragments remaining after failed extractions.
- Sectioning of multi-rooted teeth before extraction.
