The Flush Cut No Hold Distal End Cutter 678-102 is a specialized orthodontic instrument designed for trimming and shaping wires used in dental braces. Here are its specific applications:
Wire Cutting: It's a universal cutter capable of cutting all types of orthodontic wires up to a maximum size of .021" x .025" (.53 mm x .64 mm). This includes both hard and soft wires, making it a versatile tool in orthodontic treatments.
Flush Cut: As the name implies, this cutter provides a flush cut to the wires, which means it cuts the wire off cleanly without leaving any protrusions that could potentially irritate the patient's mouth.
No Hold Feature: Unlike some other cutters that hold onto the wire after cutting, this instrument does not have a holding feature. This means that once the wire is cut, the cut piece may need to be retrieved separately.
Material and Design: The cutter has a curved handle made from Immunity Steel, which is known for its durability and longevity. The pointed tip allows for precision when cutting the wires close to the buccal tubes or brackets.
The Flush Cut No Hold Distal End Cutter 678-102 is designed for orthodontists who require a reliable tool for cutting wires during brace adjustments without the need for the cut piece to be held by the cutter.
