Physics® Forceps Standard Set

The Physics® Forceps are an atraumatic extraction system that provides a simple, predictable, and unconventional method of extracting teeth.

Dentist statement:
“Thank you very much for lending me the Physics Forceps Standard set. I am very enthusiastic about its ability to elevate orally, when there is an adjacent deciduous tooth. I used it on an upper first molar, where it was so easy. I did not have to section the tooth, which often must be done when there is no stable adjacent tooth”
Amanda Pedersen, Dental Care Aarhus.

How does it work?
The Physics Forceps® operate as an elevator, rather than forceps, using first-class lever mechanics. One handle is connected to a “bumper,” which acts as the fulcrum, that is placed deep in the vestibule. The other handle is connected to the “beak,” which is positioned most often on the lingual or palatal root of the tooth into the gingival sulcus. No aspect of the instrument grasps the crown and there is no advanced elevation needed. Once the instrument is properly placed, the handles are rotated a few degrees with only wrist movement in a slow, steady and controlled manner — no squeezing!

When to use?
The Physics Forceps® are effective in most cases, including badly decayed or broken down teeth, endodontically treated teeth, fractured or fragile teeth, curved or long rooted molars and cuspids, or any tooth that would historically be challenging with conventional instrumentation. The Physics Forceps® are ideal for the implantologist who wants to preserve the surrounding bone and tissue in preparation for dental implants.

Why does it work?
The Physics Forceps® place a constant and steady load on the tooth, allowing “creep” to build, releasing hyaluronic acid, resulting in the break down of the periodontal ligaments. Studies have proven this breakdown occurs in a much faster time period than conventional methods that employ intermittent, rocking or brute strength types of forces.
