Xcision-Line® Diamond Coated Jaws
The defining feature of this instrument is its Xcision-Line® diamond coated jaw surface. The diamond coating provides enhanced grip on tooth structures during extraction, helping to reduce slippage and improve procedural control. This makes the lower wisdom teeth extraction forceps diamond coated design particularly suited to the challenges posed by impacted or partially erupted lower wisdom teeth, where secure tissue contact is essential.
English Pattern, #79 Modified Design
The English Pattern #79 Modified geometry is specifically adapted for accessing lower posterior regions of the oral cavity. The angled handles and contoured beak orientation allow the clinician to apply controlled, directed force along the correct axis during luxation and elevation, supporting efficient extraction with minimal trauma to surrounding tissue.
Roba-Edition by Dr. Manfred Beck
The Roba-Edition reflects a collaborative design philosophy, incorporating the clinical insights of Dr. Manfred Beck into the ergonomics and functional geometry of the instrument. The result is a lower wisdom teeth extraction forceps diamond coated tool that balances tactile feedback with durability.
