Fine-beaked forceps for removing fractured roots and retained fragments from the upper dental arch.
The Waldent Tooth Extraction Forceps Upper Roots No. 149 is a precision dental instrument designed for the atraumatic removal of fractured roots and retained root fragments in the maxillary (upper) arch. Its narrow, tapered beaks converge to a fine tip, allowing the operator to reach deep into the socket and securely grasp residual root structure that standard crown forceps cannot engage. The contoured beak angulation follows the curvature of the upper alveolus, giving controlled access to anterior and premolar root remnants while minimizing trauma to surrounding bone and soft tissue. The serrated inner beak surfaces improve grip on smooth, fractured root surfaces, reducing slippage during luxation and elevation. The ergonomically shaped handle offers a firm, balanced hold for precise force application throughout the extraction. Suited to oral surgery and routine exodontia, this forceps is a reliable addition to any clinical setup focused on clean, efficient root retrieval.
