Detailed Product Description

Fig. 137 Lower Incisors and Roots Extracting Forceps is a specialized dental extraction instrument developed for the professional removal of suitable lower anterior teeth and root remnants. Its dedicated pattern allows the clinician to approach mandibular anterior teeth with an appropriately shaped working end while maintaining controlled handling through the instrument’s ergonomic handles.

The instrument is designed around the principles of conventional dental extraction forceps, in which the working ends are positioned around the tooth or accessible root structure to establish a secure grip before controlled extraction movements are performed. Proper selection of the forceps according to tooth anatomy, root morphology, clinical condition, and access is essential for safe and effective use.

The Fig. 137 pattern is specifically associated with lower incisors and roots, making it a useful addition to a comprehensive dental extraction instrument range. Manufacturer catalogues also distinguish Fig. 137 from other English-pattern forceps designed for upper roots, upper premolars and roots, and lower roots.
