Physics Forceps - Pedodontic Series (GMX 50)


Tooth Extraction Forceps - Instruments

The Pedodontic set of Physics Forceps is designed specifically for use on deciduous (primary) teeth. This set of extraction forceps are similar to the Standard set of Physics Forceps, but they are much smaller (approximately 30%) and are designed for use on deciduous teeth.

The Physics Forceps are a unique type of extraction system that provides:

  • Predictable and efficient extractions in less than four minutes
  • Atraumatic extractions where you preserve the bone
  • Elimination of root tip fractures
  • No need for elevating or laying a flap
  • Very little operator movement (or strength) necessary

The unique design of the Physics Forceps allows for light but constant pressure to be applied to the tooth which leads to chemical changes in the PDL and subsequent release of the Sharpey's fibers. Once the tooth releases, it can be removed simply with a rongeur or even just your fingers.

Pedodontic Physics Forceps Set Includes
Four (4) Physics Forceps Instruments

  • Upper Right – Teeth #B-A
  • Upper Left – Teeth #J-I
  • Upper Anterior – Teeth #H-C
  • Lower Universal – Teeth #K-T

About the Physics Forceps

The Physics Forceps are an innovative design that provides a simple mechanical advantage by employing first-class lever mechanics. Utilizing the patented "beak and bumper" technique, you can simply and predictably extract virtually any tooth in any condition, while preserving the buccal bone and socket. The beak of the Physics Forceps is designed to apply controlled pressure parallel to the long axis of the root. The bumper acts as a simple fulcrum or pivot point. While traditional instruments grasp, squeeze and twist, the Physics Forceps employs a slow, steady force that releases the tooth from the alveolar bone.

Why the Physics Forceps Are So Effective

By combining the biomechanical advantages of a first-class lever with the biochemical reaction that is occurring, extracting teeth has never been easier than with the Physics Forceps. When the periodontal ligament is traumatized with forceps or elevators, hyaluronidase is released. Once this chemical breakdown of the periodontal ligament by hyaluronic acid is sufficient, the tooth is released from its attachment to the alveolus and can be removed.

This explains why the Physics Forceps with its steady unrelenting trauma to the periodontal ligament quantitatively creates a greater release of hyaluronidase in a shorter period of time than traditional forceps or elevator extractions because the trauma from those techniques is intermittent. This is what makes the Physics Forceps more efficient, faster, and less traumatic to the alveolar bone.

Preserving the Bone

By utilizing the Physics Forceps Technique (no squeezing, applying constant steady pressure with the wrist only and using the bumper as a pivot/fulcrum), it is uncommon to break the buccal bone or cortical plate. Think of the Physics Forceps as an elevator – all you want the instrument to do is move the tooth 1-3mm through constant steady pressure allowing the PDL to separate from the tooth. Once this chemical breakdown of the periodontal ligament by hyaluronic acid is sufficient, the tooth elevates coronally. You are now finished with the Physics Forceps. You can deliver the loose tooth with a traditional instrument. Also, the bumper is a compressive force that is holding the bone in place. Even though you are not squeezing, it is supporting the bone.

"The huge benefit of the Physics Forceps technique is that you are not leveraging or elevating against adjacent adult teeth when extracting a primary tooth"
