Extraction Forceps, English Pattern, #13 Modified, Roba-Edition By Dr. Manfred Beck, Lower Premolars, Xcision-Line® | Helmut Zepf No. 12.213.00Z
The Dental Extraction Forceps #13 Modified, part of the Roba-Edition by Dr. Manfred Beck, is a precision instrument engineered for the atraumatic removal of lower premolars. Designed following the English Pattern, its concave inner beak contours are shaped to the convex crown anatomy of the lower premolars, giving a parallel, maximum grip that reduces the risk of root fracture, while the tapered outer beak profile allows a deep, subgingival hold when the crown is compromised.
