Crown Pliers

Description

Crown Pliers

Small restorations are hard to hold with fingers alone, especially once they are polished. Dental crown pliers give a secure grip instead. Ours are 13 cm long and appear on the laboratory instruments page of the supplier catalogue. Because there is a single listing, there are no sizes or variants to compare.

A 13 cm Pattern for Fine Handling

At 13 cm, these pliers stay light and easy to steer. So they suit close work at the bench, such as holding a crown while you inspect margins under magnification. They also fit neatly in a cassette with other small restorative tools.

Lab and Chairside Uses

In the lab, a technician can hold a crown steady during checks and adjustments. Then, at the chair, the clinician can carry the crown to the mouth and back during try-in. For example, the pliers help when you seat a crown, check contacts and remove it again several times. In addition, they keep fingerprints off a freshly cleaned surface.

Protecting the Restoration

Grip with light, steady pressure, since ceramic and composite surfaces can chip if squeezed hard. Also, hold the crown away from the margin when you can. That way the tips never touch the area that matters most for fit. Before each use, check the tips for burrs that could mark the surface.

These pliers are stainless steel, chosen to the ASTM F899 specification. Our staff in the United States check every pair before shipment. They come to you non-sterile, so clean and autoclave the crown pliers before using them in a patient’s mouth. Our crown plier warranty gives each 13 cm pair three years against manufacturing defects, crown plier tips and all.
