English Pattern Extraction Forceps No. 59

The English Pattern Extraction Forceps No. 59 is the English-pattern forceps for 9. English-pattern forceps carry the number of the classic Ash designs: beak shape and hinge follow the tooth they are made for, and Helmut Zepf builds each number in its Xcision-Line with serrated or diamond-coated beaks, and in the Roba and exLOG editions for deep roots. Helmut Zepf makes No. 59 in 1 version, all in Germany, and every one on this page ships from our US warehouse.

Clinical Use of the English Pattern Extraction Forceps No. 59

9: the beaks are shaped to seat below the cervical line and grip the root, not the crown.
Seat before you move: push the beaks apically to full contact with the root before applying any luxating movement; a forceps that grips only the crown breaks it.
Editions: serrated beaks for standard grip, diamond-coated beaks for a non-slip hold on smooth or fractured roots, and the Roba / exLOG editions with slimmer, deeper-reaching beaks for roots and difficult extractions.

Care and Reconditioning

Zepf surgical instruments are resharpened, re-aligned and reconditioned by our sharpening and reconditioning service when the working end dulls. Clean, disinfect and sterilize between patients.

Warranty and Our Guarantee

Every Zepf extraction forceps carries a lifetime Helmut Zepf Warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. And because a forceps can only be judged in the hand, you have 60 days to return it for any reason — even after you have used it. Try it on real extractions; if it is not the instrument for you, send it back.

FAQ

What is a No. 59 forceps used for? 9. The number identifies the beak and hinge geometry made for that tooth.

Serrated or diamond-coated? Serrated beaks are the standard; diamond coating adds grip on smooth or fractured roots and lets you extract with less squeezing force.

What are the Roba and exLOG editions? Zepf’s deep-reach editions of the same pattern number: slimmer beaks and modified hinges for roots and retained fragments.

Is there a warranty? Lifetime on Zepf extraction forceps under the Helmut Zepf Warranty, and 60 days to return for any reason, even after use.
