Fig. 123 – Children’s Lower Teeth Universal

Product Overview

Fig. 123 – Children’s Lower Teeth Universal is a specialized pediatric dental extraction forceps designed for use in the controlled removal of deciduous lower teeth and selected lower dental roots. This instrument belongs to the children’s pattern of extraction forceps and is characterized by a compact, lightweight configuration intended to provide appropriate access and handling within the smaller oral cavity of pediatric patients.

The Fig. 123 forceps is commonly identified as a Children’s Lower Teeth Universal instrument. Dental instrument catalogues describe Fig. 123 for children’s lower anterior teeth, premolars, and roots, making it a versatile option within a pediatric extraction instrument set.

Its pediatric-oriented construction supports the clinician in positioning the beaks around the appropriate portion of the tooth while maintaining controlled handling during extraction procedures. The design is particularly suited to situations in which a smaller instrument profile and pediatric-oriented working geometry are desirable.

• Pediatric-oriented dimensions
• Compact working profile
• Controlled handling
• Appropriately shaped extraction beaks
• Ergonomic finger and thumb positioning
• Suitable access to lower teeth
• Precise engagement of appropriate tooth surfaces
• Smooth force transmission during controlled extraction
