Orthodontic Cutter
A Dental Orthodontic Cutters are used for cutting hard wires used in orthodontic appliances. When choosing orthodontic cutters, be sure to consider composition, joint and handle construction, quality and ability of cutting tip and longevity. Most orthodontic cutters are made of stainless steel. The handle construction should be balanced in your hand and feel comfortable at any angle. Most orthodontic cutters either employ a box joint or a sliding joint. Many orthodontic cutters boast Tungsten Carbide or diamond honed cutting blades for cutting with ease through the hardest of wires. The vendor should also indicate the maximum size wire that the pliers are able to efficiently cut.
Tungsten Carbide Cutter is made out of stainless steel. The gripping portion of the jaws have two pieces (inserts) made out of the metal tungsten carbide. The tungsten carbide inserts are a harder metal
than stainless steel. TC instruments are designed to stay sharp for a significantly longer period of time than other standard instruments. TC instruments are identified by gold handles.
