Fig. 150SK – Upper Incisors, Premolars & Roots

Product Overview

The Fig. 150SK Upper Incisors, Premolars & Roots Extraction Forceps is a specialized pediatric dental extraction instrument designed for controlled removal of upper anterior teeth, premolars, and suitable upper tooth roots. The instrument follows the compact SK/Kinder-style pattern, making it particularly appropriate for pediatric and smaller oral applications where a reduced-size instrument can provide improved handling and access.

The Fig. 150SK is designed with carefully formed working beaks that allow the clinician to engage the tooth securely while applying controlled extraction movements. Its compact construction is intended to provide comfortable instrument positioning and enhanced maneuverability during pediatric dental procedures. The 150SK pattern is commonly identified as an upper universal pedodontic extraction forceps for teeth and roots.

The SK/Kinder design is notably more compact than conventional adult extraction forceps. Nordent documentation describes the 150/151 SK instruments as approximately 12 cm in length and equipped with spring handles, allowing the forceps to be more easily concealed in the clinician’s hand and potentially helping reduce patient anxiety during pediatric procedures.

Intended Use

The Fig. 150SK is intended for professional dental use in the extraction of selected upper incisors, upper premolars, and accessible upper tooth roots, particularly in pediatric patients. The universal upper pattern allows the instrument to be used across appropriate upper-tooth indications without requiring a separate right- or left-handed version.

Its compact size can be particularly useful where a smaller instrument profile is preferred. Pediatric extraction forceps such as the 150SK are designed to facilitate access and controlled manipulation within the smaller oral cavity encountered during children’s dental procedures.
