The Long Posterior Band Removing Plier 678-207 is designed for orthodontic use, specifically for removing bands from the posterior teeth:
Posterior Band Removal: The pliers are equipped with an occlusal pad and a tip that is well-aligned for the removal of bands from the posterior, or back, teeth. The design is aimed at providing an efficient and safe means to remove bands that have been placed around the molars.
Pads and Alignment: They come with a 3/16" pad already loaded in the working end and an additional 1/4" pad to try out, which suggests that they can be customized for different sizes or preferences. Replacement pads are available to order, ensuring the tool can be maintained for repeated use.
Ergonomics and Efficiency: The long handle of the pliers is designed to facilitate better reach into the back of the mouth, which is essential when working with posterior bands that are typically more challenging to access and remove.
This tool is crucial for orthodontists when it is necessary to remove bands from a patient’s molars, especially after orthodontic treatment is completed or when adjustments are needed.
