Orthodontic Plier
A Dental Orthodontic Pliers are a hand tool used to hold objects firmly, possibly developed from tongs used to handle hot metal in Bronze Age Europe. They are also useful for bending and compressing a wide range of materials. The jaws can also be used to manipulate objects too small or unwieldy to be manipulated with the fingers. Most orthodontists and general dentists who perform orthodontic work keep several pairs of orthodontic pliers on hand. These pliers can be used for a variety of specific tasks, including arch wire work like loop forming and contouring, as well as torqueing and placing stops in the arch wire. They’re designed to fit in the mouth for easy orthodontic appliance adjustment, and give clinicians more control during placement and removal. Orthodontics is the study of the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of irregularities of the teeth and jaws. Orthodontic instruments are used in conjunction with fixed and removable appliances.
