Fig. 113 Upper Roots Extracting Forceps

Product Overview

Fig. 113 Upper Roots Extracting Forceps are specialized dental extraction instruments designed for the controlled removal of upper or maxillary tooth roots and root fragments. This instrument belongs to the widely used English Pattern range of dental extracting forceps and is identified in several professional dental instrument catalogs specifically for upper roots.

The Fig. 113 configuration is intended to provide the dental practitioner with suitable access and controlled grasping of residual or fractured root structures during extraction procedures. Its dedicated upper-root design makes it particularly useful in situations where the remaining tooth structure is limited and conventional crown-grasping forceps may not provide the appropriate access.

Carefully formed working jaws, balanced construction, and an ergonomic handle arrangement allow the instrument to be manipulated with controlled hand pressure during professional dental procedures. The design is particularly suited to clinical environments where precision, accessibility, and dependable instrument handling are essential.

Fig. 113 is commonly categorized alongside other English Pattern extraction forceps, including Fig. 112 and Fig. 114 for root-related applications, while Fig. 136 is designated for upper premolars and roots.

Detailed Product Description

The Fig. 113 Upper Roots Extracting Forceps provide dental professionals with a purpose-designed instrument for managing upper root extraction procedures. Root fragments can present a particular challenge when the visible crown portion of a tooth has fractured, deteriorated, or already been removed. In such circumstances, an appropriately designed root forceps can provide improved access to the remaining root structure.

The working end of the Fig. 113 is configured for upper-root applications, allowing the operator to position the jaws around an accessible portion of the root or remaining root structure. The overall form supports controlled positioning within the operative field while maintaining a secure manual grip.

The instrument is part of the English Pattern extracting forceps family. Professional catalogs consistently identify Fig. 113 as an instrument for upper roots, confirming its intended classification and application.

Its specialized configuration makes it suitable for use in dental practices, oral surgery environments, dental hospitals, clinics, and professional dental instrument sets. It may also be appropriate for educational and training environments where students and practitioners are introduced to the identification and handling of different extraction forceps.
