DETAILS AND CARE

Designed to place a Z bend, or root tip back bend, into the archwire with one easy squeeze, without removing the archwire from the mouth. The narrow head suits tighter interbracket spans.

  • Places a Z bend without removing the archwire
  • Narrow head for tighter interbracket spaces
  • Box joint and hardened beaks for a consistent, play-free action
  • Hardened Japanese-standard (JIS) SUS 410J1 stainless steel, fully autoclavable

FAQs

Why place the bend without removing the wire?

It saves chair time and avoids disturbing the rest of the setup. The plier reaches in and forms the bend in situ.

How should the plier be cared for?

Clean and dry it fully before autoclaving, and keep the joint free of debris. Wire-bending pliers last longest when they are not used as cutters, which rounds the beaks and shortens their working life.

What material is this instrument made from?

It is made from hardened Japanese-standard (JIS) SUS 410J1 stainless steel and withstands repeated autoclave sterilisation.

Part of our full orthodontic range covering wire-bending, arch-forming, band, bracket and clear aligner pliers.

Manufactured by InstruDental, UK specialists in dental hand instruments.
