Xcision-Line® Diamond Coating Technology
The defining feature of these diamond coated dental extraction forceps upper incisors canines is the proprietary diamond coating applied to the working beaks. This surface treatment dramatically increases grip on the tooth structure, reducing slippage during extraction and allowing the clinician to apply controlled, precise force. The result is a more predictable, efficient procedure with reduced risk of crown fracture or soft tissue trauma.
English Pattern #2 Design
The English Pattern #2 configuration is a classic, well-established design specifically optimised for the maxillary anterior region. The beak geometry conforms closely to the root morphology of upper incisors and canines, enabling secure apical engagement and effective luxation movements. The instrument is balanced for one-handed use, providing excellent tactile feedback throughout the extraction process.
