Description

Stainless-Steel Dental College Tweezers (Dressing Pliers)

These college tweezers provide controlled pickup and placement of small items during restorative and hygiene procedures without blocking sightlines. The curved variant improves approach in posterior regions and around cheeks, while the straight variant is a good all-rounder for trays and anterior fields. Serrated jaws stabilize cotton pellets, matrix tabs, and wedges to reduce drops and re-grabs.

The instrument’s 16 cm length balances reach and maneuverability for typodonts, simulation arches, and standard clinical setups. The stainless-steel build maintains alignment over repeated use when properly cleaned and dried.

FAQs

Is this autoclavable?
Only if the manufacturer explicitly rates this exact model for steam sterilization. If there is no labeling, use it as non-sterilizable handling/demo equipment.

Straight or curved—how do I choose?
Straight is versatile and tray-friendly. Curved improves access/visibility in posterior areas and around cheeks.

What is the tip texture?
Serrated jaws are used to grip cotton, wedges, and matrix tabs; they avoid excessive clamping force.
