PLIERS

Bird beak pliers

are a type of orthodontic plier used to bend and shape and adjust wires, loops, bands, and retainers.

Bird beak pliers

a type of hand tool that features long, narrow jaws with pointed tips, designed for precision work

Square-jaw-opposite-round-jaw configuration

This configuration is used in conjunction with finger pressure to adjust appliance wires

Round and pyramid beaks

are smooth to prevent wire scoring

ADERER

“Three-jaw” or “Three-prong pliers”

ADERER

Designed for precise wire bending,

making it useful for forming loops, omega

loops, and other intricate wire shapes.

ADERER

useful for grasping wires and clasps

for intraoral arch wire adjustments as

well as for lingual arch adjustments

stainless steel wire

most commonly used wire with Aderer

TWEEDARCH

Also termed Tweed torquing pliers,

Tweed arch-forming, arch-bending, or

arch-adjusting pliers, these pliers are

used as a pair.

TWEEDARCH

specifically for adjusting

square or rectangular archwires.

Tweed technique

emphasized the use of precise wire

bends in stainless steel archwires to

enhance tooth positioning, which led to the

development of specialized pliers for

creating loops, step bends, and torque

adjustments.

TWEEDARCH

Primarily used for torquing and bending

stainless steel wires.

TWEEDARCH

Suitable for stainless steel wires up to

.021” x .025” in dimension.

TWEEDARCH

Rectangular, angled beak helps in

creating sharp and precise bends without

wire distortion.

TWEEDARCH

JARABAK PLIER

JARABAK PLIER

Ideal for precise bending of

lighter wires.

JARABAK PLIER

It is a versatile light wire bending pliers

with fine serrations on the flat beak

provide non-slip control of the wire and is

designed to for working with round wires

of diameter up to 0.020” or 0.508 in mm.

JARABAK PLIER

It has three precision grooves that

ensure accurate bending & closing of

loops and ensures a non-slip grip.

LIGATURE FORMING PLIER

Helps secure archwires to brackets

LIGATURE FORMING PLIER

LIGATURE FORMING PLIER

Forms and shapes ligature wires

LIGATURE FORMING PLIER

Ties off elastic chains or power chains

TWEED LOOP

TWEED LOOP

Used to create helical, omega, and

closing loops in square or

rectangular wires.

TWEED LOOP

Three-step cylindrical beak for small,

medium, and large loops.

Standard Tweed Loop Forming Plier:

-Used for creating helical, omega, and closing loops.

-Features a three-step cylindrical beak for precise

bending.

Tweed Arch Forming Plier

-Specifically designed for shaping archwires.

-Ideal for creating ideal arch forms and adjusting wire contours.

Tweed Torquing Plier

-Used for applying torque to rectangular wires.

-Features a flat beak for better control during torque application.

RUHLAND LOOP FORMING PLIER

RUHLAND LOOP FORMING PLIER

designed with precision tips that allow for the accurate

bending of various orthodontic loops, such as vertical T-

loops, or helical loops

helix loops, omega loops, u loops , and T-loops

loops made in RUHLAND LOOP FORMING PLIER

RUHLAND LOOP FORMING PLIER

Provides consistent and symmetrical

loops.

RUHLAND LOOP FORMING PLIER

tapered and conical, which allows the formation of

symmetrical loops

Optical (Hollow Chop)

Optical (Hollow Chop)

The primary function of this is to create loops in orthodontic archwires, a critical aspect of controlling tooth movement.

Optical (Hollow Chop)

The hollow design ensures that the

wire is manipulated in a precise area, creating uniform loops that

lead to more predictable results.

Optical (Hollow Chop)

forming loops include circular loops, zig-

zag loops, and double loops, each serving a specific purpose in

guiding tooth movements.

MATHIEU

MATHIEU

positive locking pliers intended for holding, placing, and tying ligatures and elastics

MATHIEU

They also can be used for grasping and guiding a needle when suturing

Mathieu Ligature Plier with Notch

precision instrument designed for the placement and manipulation of ligatures and elastics in orthodontic treatments.

HOWE

It is designed for handling and adjusting orthodontic appliances, particularly for placing and removing elastic modules (also known as O-rings) on brackets

HOWE

• The plier has a unique design that makes it efficient and precise for orthodontic procedures.

WEINGART

• a versatile orthodontic instrument primarily used for handling and manipulating archwires in braces. 

WEINGART

• They help in gripping, inserting, and removing wires efficiently, especially in tight spaces within the oral cavity.

WEINGART

Makes it easier to take out wires during adjustments or when switching to a new wire size

DISTAL END CUTTER

used mostly in orthodontics to

cut orthodontic wires so that no sharp ends remain

sticking out past the brackets or molar bands.

DISTAL END CUTTER

The angled jaws help reach the back of the mouth

and make precise cuts near the molar brackets,

which are difficult to access with straight

instruments.

DISTAL END CUTTER

The tool ensures that wire ends do not protrude,

reducing patient discomfort

FLUSH CUT

DISTAL END CUTTER

for cutting standard-sized

orthodontic wires.

HEAVY-DUTY DISTAL END CUTTER

for cutting thicker wires, such as stainless steel, these cutters

provide extra force and durability

PIN AND LIGATURE CUTTER Wire Cutting Pliers
