Tooth Extracting Forceps (English pattern)
Extracting lower roots and incisors calls for an instrument that balances a precise, narrow-engaging beak with a handle built for total control, and the ASI-2133 Tooth Extracting Forceps Fig. 162 delivers exactly that. As part of Aero Surgical’s English pattern collection, this forceps is engineered specifically for the anterior mandibular region, where roots and incisors demand a different approach than the wider, deeper beaks used for molar extraction.
Purpose-Built for Lower Roots and Incisors
The Fig. 162 pattern is shaped to securely engage the narrower root structure and slimmer crown profile of lower incisors, as well as retained or fractured root fragments in the same region. Unlike forceps designed for bulkier posterior teeth, this instrument’s beak is contoured to fit closely around the tooth without gripping excess tissue or risking damage to adjacent incisors, which often sit close together in the lower arch. This close, accurate engagement translates into a cleaner extraction with reduced strain on the surrounding periodontal structures.
Strength and Durability from High-Grade Stainless Steel
Manufactured from high-grade stainless steel, the ASI-2133 is built to withstand the repeated mechanical stress of clinical use, from luxation to rotational movements during extraction. The steel composition supports the strength, precision, and durability required in oral surgery, ensuring the beak retains its shape and cutting edges over years of sterilization cycles and daily handling, without warping or dulling prematurely.
Ergonomic Handle for Controlled Maneuverability
A firm, fatigue-resistant grip is essential when performing extractions that require multiple controlled movements to fully mobilize a root or incisor before removal. The ergonomic handle of the ASI-2133 is shaped to sit comfortably in the practitioner’s hand, providing the leverage and control needed to apply steady, deliberate force. Combined with the instrument’s beak precision, this handle design allows for safe, reliable tooth removal even in cases involving brittle or partially fractured roots.
Matte Finish for Clinical Precision
Like other instruments in Aero Surgical’s English pattern line, the ASI-2133 features a dull, matte finish rather than a high-shine polish. This finishing choice reduces glare under bright operatory lighting, helping practitioners maintain clear visual focus on the extraction site during a procedure where millimeter-level precision matters. The matte surface also holds up consistently through repeated autoclave sterilization.
Manufacturing Quality
The ASI-2133 is produced by Aero surgical Instruments in Sialkot, Pakistan, adhering to German steel quality standards throughout the manufacturing process. Each instrument is checked for proper beak alignment and jaw closure before leaving the facility, ensuring consistent, dependable performance across every unit.
