GDC Canine Contouring Plier (3000/310)

The GDC Canine Contouring Plier (3000/310) is a dental instrument that is specifically designed to contour and shape the canine teeth on an archwire during orthodontic treatment. Canine teeth are often longer and more pointed than the surrounding teeth, and they may need to be reshaped to fit properly in the arch and improve the patient’s bite.

The plier has a unique design with curved and angled tips that allow the orthodontist to easily access the canine teeth and gently shape them without causing damage to the tooth or the archwire. The plier is made of high-quality stainless steel and is precision engineered to ensure consistent performance and durability.

• 1 x Canine Contouring Plier

• Prepare the archwire: Make sure the archwire is properly inserted in the brackets on the teeth.
• Locate the canine teeth: Identify the position of the canine teeth that require contouring.
• Position the plier: Hold the plier perpendicular to the archwire and position the curved jaws around the canine tooth.
• Apply gentle pressure: Apply gentle pressure to the plier to contour the archwire around the canine tooth. Be careful not to apply too much pressure, as this can damage the archwire or the tooth.
• Check the fit: After contouring the archwire around the canine tooth, check the fit to ensure that it is properly aligned with the other teeth.
• Repeat as necessary: If additional contouring is needed, repeat the process on the other side of the canine tooth or as directed by the orthodontist.
• Clean the plier: After use, clean the plier thoroughly with a disinfectant solution and dry it before storing it in a safe place.
