Description

A finger tip grip instrument used to extract root tips from patients.

• Does NOT attach to High or Low Speed Handpieces
• Working end has a sharp surgical screw tip, with each thread designed to be an anchoring, cutting edge which secures into the root’s dentin once seated
• Surgical cutting edges are designed to allow the Root Tip Remover (RTR) to “self-seat” into the root canal walls
• Designed to find and access the root canal within the limited space and visibility of the patient’s mouth
• Cutting edge angle of the RTR easily anchors into a larger root tip canal, providing leverage to sever the periodontal ligament in most cases
• Due to the various degrees of ligament attachment to the root, luxation may be needed. Inserting the RTR prior to luxation is recommended
