Elastomeric Ligature Removing Tweezers

Description

Elastomeric Ligature Removing Tweezers

Taking modules off should be as easy as putting them on. These ligature removing tweezers help you lift elastomeric ligatures off the bracket wings. The catalogue notes that they make removal easy. There are no options to pick from, so you just add it to your cart.

The First Step at Every Wire Change

Before a new wire goes in, the old modules come off. Then the old wire comes out. In other words, removal starts every adjust visit. So a tool that does it quickly saves minutes across a full day.

Lift, Don’t Pull

First, slip the tip under the module at one wing. Next, lift it gently up and away from the bracket. Then roll it off the other wings. Because you lift rather than tug, the patient feels less pressure on the tooth.

Pairing at the Adjust Chair

• This tweezer, to take off old modules.
• A placing forceps for the new ones.
• Next, a utility plier for the archwire.
• Finally, a distal end cutter to trim the new wire.

With these four tools, most adjust visits run smoothly.

Daily Care for Fine Tips

Rinse the tips soon after use so saliva does not dry on them. Then check that the tips still meet. If one tip looks bent, stop using the tweezers until you can replace them. The tweezers come non-sterile. After cleaning and sterilization, they can go back on the tray.

Specification, Cover and Links

We set the design for these ligature removing tweezers, and a reviewer in the United States checks each pair before it ships. The stainless steel matches ASTM F899. In writing, we guarantee three years against manufacturing defects; a build fault therefore costs you nothing. In short, you can order with confidence. To place new modules, use the Falcon elastomeric placing forceps. Also see our wider orthodontic instrument shop and our FAQ list.
