Fig. 67N Upper Third Molars Deep Gripping Root Forceps

Product Overview

Fig. 67N Upper Third Molars Deep Gripping Root Forceps is a specialized dental extraction instrument designed for controlled and secure extraction of upper third molars, including upper wisdom teeth. Its deep-gripping working profile is intended to provide a firm purchase on the tooth structure during extraction procedures, particularly where conventional forceps may have difficulty achieving adequate engagement.

The Fig. 67N belongs to the family of deep-gripping dental extraction forceps and is specifically associated with upper third molar applications. Dental instrument catalogs list Fig. 67N for upper third molars and describe it as a deep-gripping pattern.

The instrument is manufactured with a carefully formed working end that allows the beaks to engage the tooth securely while the operator applies controlled extraction movements. The design is especially useful when access to the crown or cervical portion of an upper third molar is limited and a deeper gripping position is desirable.

Long Product Description

The Fig. 67N Upper Third Molars Deep Gripping Root Forceps is a precision dental extraction instrument developed for professional dental and oral surgical procedures involving upper third molars and upper wisdom teeth. The forceps incorporates a deep-gripping working configuration intended to help the clinician obtain a secure hold on the tooth during extraction.

Upper third molars can present challenging access conditions because of their posterior position within the maxillary arch. The location of these teeth may make direct visualization and conventional instrument placement more difficult. The Fig. 67N addresses this requirement through its specialized deep-gripping profile, allowing the working ends to approach and engage the tooth in a controlled manner.

The beaks are designed to provide a positive gripping surface and are commonly described in deep-gripping forceps specifications as having a retentive or serrated profile to improve friction between the instrument and tooth structure. This design can assist the operator in maintaining a stable purchase during controlled luxation and extraction movements.

The Fig. 67N is therefore particularly suited to dental practices, oral surgery departments, dental clinics, teaching institutions, and professional dental instrument sets where a dedicated upper-third-molar extraction forceps is required.

Its balanced construction and ergonomic handle configuration are intended to support controlled manipulation during clinical procedures. A properly manufactured forceps should provide smooth opening and closing action, consistent alignment of the beaks, and a secure mechanical connection between the handles and working jaws.

The instrument is typically manufactured from medical-grade stainless steel, providing the strength, corrosion resistance, durability, and cleanability expected from reusable dental instruments. Some commercial specifications for Fig. 67N identify stainless-steel construction and autoclavability as key characteristics.

The deep-gripping configuration is an important feature of this instrument. Rather than relying solely on superficial contact with the crown, the specialized beak geometry is intended to provide a more secure purchase where the clinical situation permits. This can be particularly useful when a posterior tooth has limited accessible crown structure or when a conventional extraction forceps cannot obtain an adequate grip.

The Fig. 67N Upper Third Molars Deep Gripping Root Forceps can be incorporated into routine dental extraction instrument sets and specialist oral surgery trays. Its dedicated design makes it a practical choice for clinicians who require a forceps specifically associated with upper third molar extraction.
