Product Overview

The Fig 85 Tomes Lower Canines, Premolars and Molars Extraction Forceps is a specialized dental extraction instrument intended for use in professional dentistry and oral surgery. Designed for the removal of selected teeth in the mandibular arch, this forceps pattern is suitable for lower canines, premolars, and molars.

The Tomes-pattern design is recognized in dental instrument catalogues for its application to lower-tooth extraction. The instrument is intended to help dental professionals obtain a controlled grip on the target tooth during extraction procedures. Its practical design makes it a useful addition to dental clinics, hospitals, oral surgery departments, and professional dental instrument sets.

Design and Functionality

Dental extraction forceps are designed to engage a tooth securely and assist the clinician in applying controlled movements during removal. The Fig 85 Tomes pattern is intended for selected teeth in the lower jaw, including canines, premolars, and molars.

The working ends, joint, and handles work together to provide tooth engagement and manual control. The exact dimensions, beak configuration, handle design, and surface finish may vary according to the manufacturer and product specification.

When selected appropriately for the tooth and clinical situation, this instrument can support routine extraction workflows performed by trained dental professionals.

Main Applications

The Fig 85 Tomes Extraction Forceps is intended for professional dental procedures involving:

• Lower Canines: For extraction procedures involving mandibular canine teeth.

• General Dental Practice: For use in dental clinics and hospitals performing tooth extraction procedures.
• Oral Surgery Instrument Sets: For inclusion in a suitable collection of dental extraction instruments.

The final instrument choice should depend on tooth anatomy, accessibility, clinical condition, and the dentist’s assessment.
