Dental Extraction Forceps No. 44 - Upper Roots

DENTIFY® Dental Extraction Forceps 44 - Upper Roots

DENTIFY® English Extracting Forceps No. 44 are used for the extraction of maxillary (upper) roots, fractured tooth fragments, and narrow upper anterior teeth. Featuring a straight, ultra-slender architecture with elongated, tapered jaws, this pattern is designed to slide deep into the upper alveolar socket. The parallel-closing beaks provide a non-slip grip on minimal root structures below the gumline.

Traditional English-pattern design provides excellent control, balanced handling, and a secure grip during extractions. 

The knurled handle enhances grip and provides optimal control. Manufactured from high-quality stainless steel, they offer durability, corrosion resistance, and consistent clinical performance.

Key Features of Extraction Forceps No. 44

Maxillary Root Design: Elongated, parallel-closing beaks optimized specifically for accessing deep-seated upper roots and fragments.

Ultra-Slender Profile: Narrow working ends easily pass into the upper periodontal space with minimal dilation of the socket walls.

Traditional English-Pattern: Delivers balanced weight distribution and heavy-duty physical force transfer.

Premium Construction: Crafted from medical-grade stainless steel for high corrosion resistance and long-lasting durability.

Knurled Handle: High-friction textured surface ensures a confident grip and reduces hand fatigue.

Atraumatic Efficiency: Designed to grip below the enamel line to reduce the risk of crown fracture.

Clinical Uses of Extracting Forceps No. 44

Extracting Forceps No. 44 are the clinical standard for removing retained maxillary roots, sectioned upper molar roots, and crowded upper anterior teeth. The thin, straight profile allows for clean apical progression along the root surface. This precise fit facilitates controlled, gentle luxation and a straight pull trajectory, effectively preserving the surrounding bone plates and accelerating post-operative healing.
