Fig 336 – Lower Premolar Deep Gripping Root Forceps

Product Overview

Fig 336 Lower Premolar Deep Gripping Root Forceps is a specialized dental extraction instrument designed for controlled grasping and removal of lower premolar teeth and retained or difficult-to-access root fragments. Its deep-gripping working profile is intended to provide a secure purchase on the tooth or root structure, helping the dental professional maintain control during extraction procedures.

The forceps are particularly suited to situations where conventional extraction forceps may have difficulty obtaining an adequate grip because of limited crown structure, fractured teeth, deeply positioned roots, or other challenging clinical conditions. The working ends are designed to approach the target tooth or root closely and establish a firm grasp before controlled extraction movements are applied.

Fig 336 is a practical addition to a professional dental extraction instrument set and may be used in general dentistry, oral surgery, dental clinics, teaching institutions, and other professional dental environments where specialized root-gripping forceps are required.

Detailed Description

The Fig 336 Lower Premolar Deep Gripping Root Forceps is engineered for dental professionals who require a specialized instrument for the extraction of lower premolars and challenging root structures. The deep-gripping configuration allows the working ends to engage the tooth or remaining root more effectively, particularly when the visible portion of the tooth is limited or when conventional forceps cannot achieve an adequate purchase.

During extraction procedures, secure initial engagement is essential for maintaining control of the tooth while applying appropriate clinical movements. The design of Fig 336 supports this objective by providing a dedicated gripping configuration for lower premolar extraction applications. Its working profile is especially useful for cases involving fractured crowns, retained roots, compromised tooth structure, or other situations in which access and purchase may be difficult.

The instrument is designed to provide the operator with a balanced combination of grip, control, accessibility, and maneuverability. The handles allow the clinician to position and manipulate the forceps while the working ends engage the intended tooth or root structure. Proper instrument selection, positioning, and extraction technique remain essential for safe and effective clinical use.

The deep-gripping root forceps design makes Fig 336 a valuable specialized instrument for dental extraction trays. It can complement standard upper and lower extraction forceps by providing an additional option for lower premolars and difficult root-removal procedures.
