Dental extraction instruments are used to remove teeth, restoration and roots when clinically necessary. These instruments can take a wide range of forms as different designs are required to access and remove dentition in different places of the mouth and different states of decay. These instruments should be designed to remove tissue as atraumatically as possible. As with all dental instruments, look for extraction instruments that are durable and made from stainless steel or other materials that are easy to sterilize.
