Technical Specifications

Round Dental Mouth Mirror

The round mouth mirror provides indirect visualization of teeth and oral structures that may be difficult to observe through direct vision. It may also assist with reflecting light toward the examination area and gently retracting the cheeks, lips or tongue when clinically appropriate.

The handle includes a textured grip section to support precise control while the instrument is being positioned inside the oral cavity.

Double-Ended Dental Explorer

The double-ended explorer features two fine working ends with different angled profiles. It is designed to assist trained dental professionals with controlled tactile examination of tooth surfaces, pits, fissures and the margins of existing restorations.

The explorer should be used with an appropriate clinical technique and light, controlled pressure. Excessive force should not be applied to tooth surfaces or soft tissue.

College Pliers

The College pliers, also commonly called dental cotton pliers or College tweezers, feature an angled working profile for improved access within the oral cavity. Their fine tips assist with the placement and retrieval of cotton pellets, gauze, wedges and other small dental materials.

The serrated gripping section provides controlled finger contact while the spring-action body allows the tips to open automatically when pressure is released.
