Atraumatic Extraction Forceps 67A Dental Tool
Atraumatic Extraction Forceps 67A for Controlled Tooth Removal
The Atraumatic Extraction Forceps 67A is designed for dental extraction procedures where the relationship between the working beaks and the accessible tooth surface requires a controlled, anatomically guided approach. Its angled beak configuration gives the No. 67A pattern a distinct working orientation, allowing the clinician to position the instrument according to the tooth's location and available clinical access.
The broader working profile provides an appropriate contact area for suitable tooth structure while the angled geometry helps direct the beaks toward the intended engagement point. Before extraction movements are applied, the beaks should be carefully seated on accessible tooth structure so that the clinician can maintain control throughout the procedure.
From a clinical standpoint, an atraumatic extraction approach depends on more than forceps design alone. Tooth morphology, periodontal condition, remaining structure, accessibility, correct beak placement, and the extraction technique all influence the outcome. The 67A should therefore be selected when its particular working geometry corresponds with the requirements of the individual tooth rather than being treated as a universal extraction instrument.
The balanced ergonomic handles provide a stable gripping area and tactile feedback during positioning and manipulation. This allows the clinician to maintain the intended orientation of the angled beaks while applying controlled extraction movements and making adjustments according to the clinical situation.
Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel, the Forceps 67A is designed for repeated professional dental use. Its corrosion-resistant construction supports routine clinical reprocessing, while the reusable and fully autoclavable design allows it to undergo appropriate cleaning, inspection, sterilization, and maintenance between procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Atraumatic Extraction Forceps 67A used for?
The No. 67A is designed for controlled tooth extraction when its angled and contoured working configuration is appropriate for engaging accessible tooth structure.
What is the purpose of the angled beaks on the 67A?
The angled beaks provide a directed working approach, allowing the clinician to position the instrument according to the tooth's location and available clinical access.
How does the broad working profile affect tooth engagement?
The broader profile provides a defined contact area for suitable tooth structure, helping the clinician establish appropriate engagement before applying controlled extraction movements.
Does the 67A forceps itself make an extraction atraumatic?
No. Its design can support controlled extraction, but atraumatic handling also depends on case selection, tooth anatomy, beak positioning, clinical technique, and operator skill.
What should be considered when selecting Forceps 67A?
The clinician should evaluate the tooth anatomy, accessible structure, clinical access, surrounding tissues, and whether the No. 67A working geometry is appropriate for the intended extraction.
Can Forceps 67A be reused after sterilization?
Yes. The surgical-grade stainless-steel construction is designed for repeated professional use and supports appropriate cleaning, inspection, sterilization, and autoclave processing.
