Utility Pliers, How Pliers Offset

The Utility Pliers, How Pliers Offset 678-204, are designed for orthodontic purposes with the following specific uses:

1. Placement and Removal of Archwires: They are useful for the placement and removal of archwires, pins, and other auxiliary components involved in orthodontic treatments​​.

2. Angulated Tips for Access: These pliers are similar to the straight How Pliers (678-203) but are distinct in that they have tips angled at 40 degrees. This angulation is particularly beneficial for accessing lingual areas and other challenging-to-reach spaces within the mouth​​​​.

3. Gripping and Handling: The How Pliers Offset also come with serrated tips, which are essential for gripping and handling the brackets and wires securely during orthodontic procedures​​.

These pliers are a variant of the standard How Pliers and are tailored to provide additional accessibility and handling capabilities for orthodontic professionals when working with dental braces.
