Fig. 153 – Upper Roots Deep Gripping Root Forceps

Professional Dental Extraction Instrument for Deep-Gripping Upper Root and Root Fragment Removal

The Fig. 153 Upper Roots Deep Gripping Root Forceps is a specialized dental extraction instrument designed for controlled handling and removal of accessible upper-jaw root fragments and retained root portions during dental extraction procedures. Its deep-gripping configuration is intended to provide a secure purchase on root structures where conventional extraction forceps may have limited access or insufficient engagement.

Manufactured for professional dental and oral-surgical applications, this root forceps combines a purpose-designed working end with a strong, ergonomic handle configuration to support controlled manipulation during extraction procedures. The instrument is particularly suited to situations requiring firm engagement of an exposed or partially exposed root fragment while maintaining appropriate operator control.

According to dental instrument catalog references, Fig. 153 is categorized as a deep-gripping root-fragment extraction forceps.

Product Overview

The Fig. 153 Upper Roots Deep Gripping Root Forceps is developed for professional dental practices, oral surgery departments, dental clinics, hospitals, teaching institutions, and dental instrument distributors requiring specialized extraction instrumentation.

Root fragments can present significant challenges during dental extraction, particularly when a remaining portion of the root is located deeper within the extraction site or when only a limited portion of the root remains available for engagement. A specialized deep-gripping forceps can assist the dental professional in obtaining controlled mechanical purchase on the accessible root structure.

The Fig. 153 configuration is intended to support this type of application by providing a dedicated working profile suitable for deep gripping of accessible upper-root fragments.

• Manufactured for professional clinical environments.
• Reusable instrument configuration, subject to the applicable cleaning, sterilization, inspection, and maintenance protocols.
• Suitable for hospitals, dental clinics, oral surgery practices, dental schools, and professional instrument suppliers.

Intended Application

The primary application of the Fig. 153 Upper Roots Deep Gripping Root Forceps is the controlled removal of accessible upper-jaw root fragments and retained root portions.

Upper-root extraction forceps generally feature narrow working ends designed to approach and engage the root structure. Dental references describe upper-root forceps as instruments intended for removal of maxillary roots, with the beaks designed to closely engage the circumference of the root and provide a firm grip.

The deep-gripping Fig. 153 pattern is particularly relevant when the operator requires an instrument designed to obtain purchase on a root fragment rather than relying on a broad crown-gripping extraction pattern.
