The Physics ® Forceps (upper left), standard series, by Directa are extraction instruments for use on all teeth, with the exception of third molars. Due to patient access and the i nstrument's design, they may not be able to access harder to reach second molars. For better access to this location, the molar series should be used. Product Features: Style: standard upper left. The design of the Physics ® Forceps allows you to use them as an elevator, rather than just a forcep. They do this by using lever mechanics. HOW IT WORKS: One side of the handle has a "bumper," which acts as the fulcrum. Place it deeper in the vestibule. The other side connects to the "beak" and positioned on the lingual or palatal root of the tooth, into the gingival sulcus. This instrument grasps the crown and will not need elevating. Once the forceps are properly positioned, then handles rotate a few degrees with only a wrist movement, in a slow, steady, and controlled manner — no squeezing needed! Made in the USA. Use the Directa Physics Forceps For: Decayed or broken down teeth Endodontically treated teeth Fractured or fragile teeth Curved or long rooted molars and cuspidors, as well as any tooth that would normally be challenging with other dental instruments Especially helpful for implantologists who want to preserve the surrounding bone and tissue, in preparation for dental implants.
