Cow Horn Extracting Forcep 23 American Pattern

Cowhorn 23 forceps, also known as #23 extraction forceps or mandibular molar forceps, are specialized dental instruments used primarily for extracting lower molars. Here are the key details:

Applications:
1. Tooth Extraction: Specifically designed for the extraction of mandibular (lower) molars, particularly those with bifurcated roots.
2. Molars with Heavy Calculus: Effective for extracting molars that may be heavily calcified or difficult to remove with standard forceps.
3. Firm Grip on Roots: Used to grip the tooth at the furcation area of the roots to facilitate extraction.

Features:
1. Design: Features beaks that resemble cow horns, which fit into the bifurcation of the molar roots, providing a secure grip.
2. Material: Made from high-quality, medical-grade stainless steel for strength, durability, and ease of sterilization.
3. Handles: Ergonomically designed handles to provide a firm grip and maximum leverage during extractions.
4. Beak Alignment: The beaks are aligned to ensure they fit around the molar roots securely, minimizing the risk of breaking the tooth during extraction.
5. Leveraging Power: Designed to use the natural leverage of the instrument to facilitate the extraction with minimal force.
