Ortho Accessories

Ortho accessories round out the fixed-appliance operatory: the support instruments and consumables that keep documentation, pliers, and reprocessing running smoothly. This collection gathers the Helmut Zepf accessory range from the ZEPF Ortho Master line, made in Germany.

What's in the Collection

Cheek retractors for intraoral photography — full and half (left/right) patterns, in standard stainless and glare-reducing Onyx-coated versions — hold soft tissue clear for the progress documentation modern orthodontic treatment depends on. Replacement plastic inserts (10-pack) restore bracket and band removal pliers to factory function without replacing the instrument. Cleaning brushes — double-sided sterilizable instrument brushes and fine aspirator brushes in Ø 1.5 and Ø 3/5 mm — cover the detail cleaning stages of instrument and suction-line reprocessing.

FAQ

What is the Onyx coating on the retractors? A dark surface treatment that cuts reflective glare in clinical photographs — the coated versions are preferred for standardized photo documentation.

Do the replacement inserts fit my removal pliers? The 33.770.22 inserts are made for ZEPF bracket & band removal pliers; each pack of 10 restores the plastic contact tips that protect enamel during debonding.

Are the cleaning brushes sterilizable? Yes — the double-sided instrument brushes are designed for repeated sterilization; aspirator brushes should be replaced per your suction-line maintenance schedule.
