FAQs
What is the hole punched for?
Most often to accommodate a button or to run elastics from the aligner, so intermaxillary mechanics can be added to a clear aligner case.
Can aligner pliers be autoclaved?
Yes. They go through a standard autoclave cycle with the rest of your orthodontic set. Dry them fully before storage to protect the joint.
What material is this instrument made from?
The plier body is made from hardened Japanese-standard (JIS) SUS 410J1 stainless steel and withstands repeated autoclave sterilisation.
