Tooth Extracting Forceps (English pattern)
Precision matters most when working in the tightest, most delicate corners of the oral cavity, and that is exactly where the ASI-2130 Tooth Extracting Forceps Fig. 74N earns its place in a clinician’s tray. Designed specifically for the extraction of lower roots and crowded incisors, this English pattern forceps combines a slender, purpose-built beak geometry with the strength and reliability dental professionals expect from German-grade stainless steel.
Built for Tight, Crowded Spaces
The defining feature of the Fig. 74N is its narrow 2.8mm beak. In cases involving crowded lower incisors or retained root fragments, standard-width beaks simply can’t gain the access needed without risking damage to adjacent teeth or soft tissue. The slim profile of this instrument slides into confined interdental spaces with ease, allowing the practitioner to establish a secure apical grip on the root surface while working around neighboring teeth that are often overlapping or rotated. This makes the ASI-2130 a go-to instrument for cases where anatomical crowding would otherwise complicate an extraction.
Engineered for Minimal Trauma
Beyond access, the beak design is engineered to distribute grip force efficiently along the root surface, reducing the likelihood of fracture during extraction. This is particularly valuable when dealing with retained or fragile roots, where excessive force or a poor grip angle can cause the root to shatter, complicating the procedure and prolonging chair time. The result is a cleaner, more predictable extraction with less trauma to the surrounding alveolar bone and soft tissue.
Ergonomic, Slip-Resistant Handles
Control during an extraction is just as important as beak design, and the ASI-2130 addresses this with serrated, ergonomically contoured handles. The serration pattern is cut to maximize grip even when hands are gloved or when moisture is present in the working field, minimizing slippage during the controlled rotational and luxation movements required for safe tooth removal. The handle shape is balanced to reduce hand fatigue during longer procedures or when multiple extractions are performed in a single session.
Material and Manufacturing Quality
Every ASI-2130 forceps is manufactured from premium stainless steel using German steel quality standards, giving the instrument the hardness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance needed for repeated clinical use and sterilization cycles. The dull, matte finishing is not just cosmetic — it reduces glare under operatory lighting, which helps practitioners maintain visual precision during delicate procedures, and it also minimizes light reflection that can be distracting in close, detailed work.
Manufactured by Aero surgical Instruments in Sialkot, Pakistan — a region internationally recognized for surgical and dental instrument craftsmanship — the ASI-2130 is produced under strict quality control to meet the durability and precision standards required in modern dental practice.
Ideal Applications
This forceps is best suited for:
- Extraction of lower incisor roots
- Removal of crowded or overlapping lower incisors
- Cases requiring narrow interdental access
- General dentistry and oral surgery settings
- Practices seeking a reliable, reusable, autoclavable extraction instrument
Why Choose the ASI-2130
Whether you’re a general dentist handling routine extractions or an oral surgeon managing more complex crowded-tooth cases, the ASI-2130 offers the beak precision, grip security, and build quality needed to perform safer, more efficient extractions. Its narrow beak design solves a specific clinical challenge — access in crowded anterior regions — that broader forceps simply cannot address as effectively.
Add the ASI-2130 Fig. 74N to your instrument tray for dependable performance in one of dentistry’s most access-sensitive extraction scenarios.
Frequently Asked Questions FAQs:
1. What is the ASI-2130 forceps used for?
It’s used for extracting lower roots and crowded lower incisors, particularly in cases with limited interdental space.
2. What does “Fig. 74N” mean?
It refers to the specific beak design/figure number in the English pattern forceps classification, indicating its shape is suited for narrow root extractions.
3. What is the beak width of the ASI-2130?
The beak measures 2.8mm, making it narrower than standard forceps for better access in crowded areas.
4. What material is the ASI-2130 made from?
It’s crafted from stainless steel manufactured to German steel quality standards.
5. What finish does this instrument have?
It has a dull and matte finishing, which reduces glare under operatory lights.
6. Where is the ASI-2130 manufactured?
It’s made by Aero surgical Instruments in Sialkot, Pakistan.
7. Is this forceps autoclavable?
Yes, stainless steel surgical-grade forceps like this are designed to withstand standard autoclave sterilization cycles.
8. Can this forceps be used on upper teeth?
No, this design (Fig. 74N) is specifically configured for lower roots and crowded incisors, not upper arch extractions.
9. Is this suitable for retained root extraction?
Yes, the narrow beak is particularly effective for gripping retained or fragmented lower roots.
10. What makes the handle design different?
The handles are serrated and ergonomically shaped for a secure, slip-resistant grip during procedures.
11. Is this instrument reusable?
Yes, it’s a reusable, sterilizable stainless steel surgical instrument, not a single-use product.
12. What’s the difference between English and American pattern forceps?
English pattern forceps typically have a different handle and hinge design compared to American pattern forceps, though both serve similar extraction purposes; English pattern is common in many international markets.
13. Can general dentists use this, or is it for oral surgeons only?
Both general dentists and oral surgeons can use the ASI-2130 for appropriate lower incisor and root extraction cases.
14. Does the narrow beak reduce risk of root fracture?
Yes, the beak geometry is designed to improve grip and force distribution, helping minimize the risk of root fracture during extraction.
15. How do I clean and maintain this instrument?
Standard surgical instrument protocol applies: pre-clean, ultrasonic cleaning, and autoclave sterilization between uses.
16. Is the ASI-2130 corrosion-resistant?
Yes, German-grade stainless steel provides strong resistance to corrosion with proper care and sterilization practices.
17. What is the typical shelf life of this instrument?
With proper care and sterilization, stainless steel forceps like this can last for years of clinical use.
