Detailed Description

The Fig. 107 Upper Canines Extracting Forceps is a specialized dental extraction instrument intended for use on maxillary canine teeth. Upper canines have distinctive anatomical characteristics, including a relatively prominent crown and a long root, requiring an appropriately designed extraction instrument that allows the clinician to obtain controlled engagement and manipulation.

The instrument’s English Pattern configuration provides a familiar forceps format for dental professionals. Its working jaws are shaped for application to upper canine teeth, while the handles provide the operator with a practical gripping surface for controlled instrument manipulation.

The serrated working tips provide additional contact characteristics when the instrument is correctly positioned on the tooth. The serrations are intended to help maintain engagement during controlled tooth manipulation and extraction.

The instrument is suitable for professional dental settings where tooth extraction is performed by appropriately trained and qualified dental personnel. Proper clinical technique, patient assessment, tooth condition, periodontal status, root anatomy, and applicable clinical protocols should always determine the selection and use of extraction instruments.
