Tooth Extracting forceps are used to extract teeth designed for use in specific areas of the mouth. The beak is shaped to confirm snugly to the contour of the tooth. This makes it easier to reach different teeth effectively. Dental forcpeps handles are shaped so that a maximum amount of force can be applied to the beaks, while the handles are still in a comfortable position for the oral surgeon.

Directions Use:
- The position of the patient, dental chair, and operator are critical for a successful extraction procedure.
- Force is delivered with the arm and shoulder and not with the wrist movement.
- For a maxillary extraction, the occlusal plane should be about 45- 60 degrees to the floor. The height of the chair should be such that the height of the patient’s mouth is at or slightly below the operator’s elbow.
- For the extraction of mandibular teeth, the patient should be positioned in a more upright position so that when the patient opens their mouth widely, the occlusal plane is parallel to the floor. The chair should be lower than for the extraction of maxillary teeth.
- The goal of the forceps use is the expansion of the bony socket by use of wedge-shaped beaks and the removal of a tooth from the socket.
The forceps are applied in five major motions :
- Apical
- Buccal
- Lingual
- Rotation
- Tractional forces for delivering the tooth from the socket
INSTRUCTIONS REGARDING MAINTENANCE:-
- Clean in an ultrasonic unit for 10 minutes with a no-rinse general-purpose solution with an included rust inhibitor. Keep tips open during cleaning.
- Dry or drain instruments and dip them in the instrument solution.
- Load pliers on the tray. The loading method should allow plier tips to remain open during sterilizing cycle.
- Sterilize according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- After the sterilization cycle is complete, depressurize the equipment and allow the pliers to cool.
- Remove instruments and make sure they are dry before storage.
