The Lingual Hammerhead NiTi Plier 678-704 is used for orthodontic treatments with specific features and applications:
Bending NiTi Wires: It is a multi-use plier designed specifically for bending nickel-titanium (NiTi) wires up to a size of .025" (.64 mm).
Efficiency and Comfort: The pliers are crafted to transform a multi-process step into a single step, thereby increasing efficiency during wire-forming tasks. By simply squeezing the pliers, the desired bend is achieved without the need for heat application. This design consideration is particularly aimed at patient comfort.
Slimmer Working End: Compared to other models like the 678-327, the 678-704 model has a 10% slimmer working end, which makes the tool less intrusive and thus enhances patient comfort during orthodontic procedures.
These pliers are integral to the work of orthodontists, particularly when working with the resilient NiTi wires commonly used in modern braces for their ability to return to a pre-set shape after activation.
