Extracting Forceps American Pattern Fig 6 – Splitting Forcep

The Extracting Forceps American Pattern Fig. 6, commonly referred to as Splitting Forceps, is an indispensable instrument for surgical extractions. Unlike standard forceps designed for pulling, the Fig. 6 is engineered to exert lateral force to separate tooth sections or to wedge between roots for easier retrieval. At Dentstar International, we hand-finish every instrument in Sialkot, ensuring the beaks are tapered with precision to act as an effective wedge while maintaining the strength to resist bending under pressure.

Key Features & Clinical Benefits

• Specialized Splitting Beaks: The beaks are designed with a heavy, tapered profile that allows them to be inserted into sectioned molar crowns to facilitate clean separation.

• American Box-Joint Design: The recessed hinge provides a stable pivot point that can withstand significant torque, ensuring the instrument remains aligned even during high-pressure procedures.

• Maximum Mechanical Leverage: The handle-to-beak ratio is optimized to provide the clinician with superior mechanical advantage, reducing hand fatigue during difficult separations.

• Premium German-Grade Steel: Forged from high-carbon surgical stainless steel, offering exceptional hardness and total resistance to corrosion through repeated autoclave cycles.

• Satin Anti-Glare Finish: The matte surface treatment minimizes light reflections, allowing for high-precision work under intense surgical lighting.
