Upper Root Extracting Forceps, SKU PS-6941, is a 125mm (5”) dental extraction instrument manufactured from German stainless steel for controlled removal of maxillary retained roots and fractured upper tooth remnants. The available size variant is 125mm (5”), a compact pattern used in maxillary anterior root extraction, upper premolar root delivery, crown-fracture exodontia, retained root removal after elevator luxation, pre-prosthetic clearance, and surgical exodontia after flap reflection when the residual segment is accessible. The sharply angled opposing beaks approach the cervical or exposed radicular surface from an upper-arch working angle, while the pivoted joint transfers handle compression into controlled closure at the tip. The curved handles and textured grip zone support tactile control during apical seating, buccopalatal movement, and final delivery from the socket. This forceps is used by dental surgeons, oral and maxillofacial surgeons, general dentists, pediatric dentists, hospital dental departments, outpatient oral surgery units, and procurement teams assembling reusable maxillary extraction trays.
The working end is shaped with a sharply angled beak profile that helps the operator approach maxillary root surfaces without forcing the hand into a straight occlusal line. This geometry is useful when the crown is fractured, the remaining structure is subgingival, or the root segment has been exposed after luxation. The beaks provide the active gripping surface, contacting dentin or cervical contour as they are seated apically. A box-style pivot links both arms and directs handle compression into synchronized tip closure. The joint maintains alignment during gripping, reducing lateral displacement while buccopalatal movement is applied. The curved handles provide a stable palm position for short controlled movements rather than prolonged traction. The knurled gripping area increases contact resistance when gloves are wet from irrigation, blood, or saliva. Because no ratchet is present, the operator maintains continuous manual control over closing pressure, release, repositioning, and final removal. The 125mm frame keeps hand placement close to the field during compact upper-arch extraction work.
In procedure sequence, Upper Root Extracting Forceps is introduced after local anesthesia, gingival cuff separation, and initial mobilization with a straight elevator, Coupland elevator, luxator, or periotome. For maxillary retained roots, the segment is first loosened until controlled mobility is present, then the angled beaks are seated along the exposed radicular surface. In upper anterior extraction, the instrument is used after circumferential ligament release when the cervical contour can accept beak placement. In upper premolar root cases, it assists final delivery after the buccal and palatal socket walls have been expanded through elevator action. During crown-fracture exodontia, unsupported coronal fragments are cleared before forceps engagement is applied to the remaining structure. In surgical extraction, the instrument can be used after flap reflection, limited bone removal, or sectioning when the residual segment is visible and mobile. It fits dental clinics, hospital oral surgery rooms, pediatric dental departments, and ambulatory exodontia settings where compact maxillary access is required.
The 125mm (5”) variant is selected when a short upper-root forceps is needed for confined access, smaller oral cavities, or close hand control near the maxillary operative field. Its compact length reduces handle projection compared with longer adult extraction patterns and allows easier coordination with suction, mirror retraction, and soft tissue control. The angled beaks are selected for upper root fragments, maxillary anterior remnants, and accessible premolar roots where direct cervical grasping is required after luxation. The pivot provides synchronized closure, allowing the clinician to increase grip pressure gradually as the working end advances apically. The curved handles deliver buccopalatal movement through the operator’s palm and fingers, while the textured grip assists repositioning between movement cycles. In tray planning, Upper Root Extracting Forceps occupies the maxillary retained-root role beside straight elevators, luxators, periosteal elevators, aspirator tips, curettes, and irrigation syringes. Procurement teams can add this 125mm pattern to reusable extraction cassettes for clinics that regularly manage upper root remnants.
German stainless steel provides the rigidity required for repeated compression, beak engagement, and controlled root delivery without deformation at the working end. The material is suitable for reusable dental instrument processing through cleaning, inspection, packaging, and steam autoclave sterilization. Satin, dull, and mirror finish options address operatory and sterile processing preferences; satin and dull surfaces reduce glare under dental lighting, while mirror polish supports fast visual inspection after cleaning. Reprocessing focuses on the beaks, angled head, pivot line, and textured handle, because these areas collect debris during extraction. The Class I classification reflects a reusable manual dental instrument with mechanical action. CE marking and ISO 13485 documentation support regulated purchasing records for hospitals, clinics, and distributors. FDA compliance information supports medical device procurement files for healthcare buyers working through regulated supply channels. The one-year warranty, MOQ of one piece, OEM availability, carton box packing, and return or replacement after-sale service make the product suitable for clinic replenishment and distributor inventory workflows.

How does Upper Root Extracting Forceps differ from a straight dental elevator?
Upper Root Extracting Forceps is a grasping and delivery instrument, while a straight dental elevator is used primarily for luxation. The elevator wedges into the periodontal space and creates mobility before forceps engagement. This instrument uses opposing angled beaks to hold the exposed upper root once movement has been established. Its pivoted closure provides controlled grip around the cervical or radicular surface. A straight elevator does not close around the tooth and cannot provide the same final delivery control. Upper Root Extracting Forceps is therefore used after elevator mobilization when the clinician needs secure extraction purchase.
When is the 125mm size selected for upper root extraction?
The 125mm size is selected for compact maxillary access during retained root removal, upper anterior extraction, and premolar root delivery. Its shorter frame keeps the operator’s hand closer to the field and reduces handle projection around the lips and opposing dentition. In upper anterior work, the beaks are seated near the cervical contour after periodontal ligament release. In premolar root cases, the working end is applied after elevator luxation has created controlled mobility. For fractured crowns, the size allows close access to exposed residual structure without relying on unsupported coronal fragments. Upper Root Extracting Forceps is selected when controlled grip and close-field handling are required.
How do CE, ISO 13485, and FDA documentation support procurement?
CE marking supports product conformity documentation for clinical purchasing and distributor review. ISO 13485 indicates that the manufacturing system follows medical device quality management and traceability requirements. FDA compliance information supports purchasing records for healthcare buyers working in regulated medical supply channels. Hospitals and clinics use these documents during supplier approval, tender review, and extraction tray standardization. Upper Root Extracting Forceps can be entered into procurement files with recognized compliance references. This documentation is useful for international buyers comparing reusable dental instruments across multiple suppliers.
How is the pivot mechanism used during retained root delivery?
The pivot mechanism links the two arms and transfers handle compression into beak closure. During use, the clinician seats the angled beaks on the exposed root surface after luxation has produced mobility. As the handles close, the pivot keeps both tips aligned around the selected structure. Buccopalatal movement is then applied through the handles to expand the socket and reduce resistance. Because there is no ratchet, the operator controls the grip manually during placement, movement, and release. Upper Root Extracting Forceps depends on this pivoted action for controlled grasping and final delivery.
What should clinics and distributors know about sterilization and ordering?
This product is reusable and suitable for standard dental instrument reprocessing workflows. Cleaning focuses on the angled beaks, pivot line, shoulder, and textured handle before sterilization. The hinge is opened, brushed, dried, and inspected before packaging in a cassette or pouch. Steam autoclave processing follows the facility’s approved cycle for reusable stainless steel dental instruments. Clinics can order one piece for replacement, while OEM availability supports distributor supply programs. Upper Root Extracting Forceps is supplied with one-year warranty coverage and return or replacement after-sale support.
