Atraumatic Extraction Forceps 73A for Controlled Tooth Removal
The Atraumatic Extraction Forceps 73A is a specialized dental extraction instrument developed for cases where careful engagement and controlled manipulation are essential. Its angled working profile gives the forceps a distinct approach to the tooth, allowing the clinician to position the beaks according to the available access and the anatomy of the tooth being treated.
The instrument is particularly suited to extraction techniques in which maintaining controlled contact with the tooth is important. The working end should be positioned on appropriate accessible tooth structure before extraction movements are initiated. Correct seating helps the clinician maintain control and avoid relying on unnecessary force during tooth removal.
The 73A configuration provides a specific working geometry that can be useful when the clinical approach requires an angled relationship between the handles and the tooth. This allows the operator to maintain a practical hand position while directing the beaks toward the intended area of engagement. Selection should always consider the tooth's anatomy, remaining structure, accessibility, and clinical condition.
The ergonomic handles provide a secure gripping surface and tactile feedback throughout positioning and manipulation. This supports controlled hand movements and helps maintain the orientation of the angled working end during the extraction procedure.
Constructed from surgical-grade stainless steel, the Forceps 73A is designed for durability and repeated professional use. Its corrosion-resistant construction supports routine clinical processing, while its reusable and fully autoclavable design makes it suitable for established cleaning, inspection, sterilization, and maintenance protocols.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Atraumatic Extraction Forceps 73A used for?
The Forceps 73A is designed for controlled tooth extraction where its angled working configuration provides an appropriate approach to the accessible tooth structure.
Why is the angled profile clinically useful?
The angled profile allows the clinician to approach the tooth from a directed orientation while maintaining a practical hand position during the procedure.
Does “atraumatic” mean the forceps eliminates tissue trauma?
No. The term describes an instrument intended to support controlled extraction, but the clinical outcome depends on tooth anatomy, case selection, beak positioning, extraction technique, and operator skill.
How should the beaks be positioned before extraction?
The beaks should be appropriately seated on accessible tooth structure according to the individual tooth anatomy and clinical situation before controlled extraction movements are applied.
What factors should influence selection of Forceps 73A?
The clinician should evaluate tooth anatomy, remaining structure, accessibility, surrounding tissues, and whether the angled No. 73A configuration is appropriate for the planned extraction.
Is Forceps 73A suitable for repeated clinical use?
Yes. Its surgical-grade stainless-steel construction is designed for repeated professional use and supports appropriate cleaning, inspection, sterilization, and autoclave processing.
