Endodontic Forceps 14cm, Long Three-Stage Lock

KOHLER · ENDODONTIC FORCEPS

It locks. That is the whole point of this one.

Kohler’s 14 cm endodontic forceps for retrieving separated instruments. It is the locking half of a pair – grip the fragment once and the forceps holds it, rather than asking your hand to keep the pressure on while you work it free.

This pack: Kohler Endodontic Forceps, 14 cm, three-stage locking with inner spring · single instrument · QED REF 8400

Kohler on what it is for: “Endodontic forceps, to grasp and remove broken endodontic instruments from the root canal.”

Kohler’s own feature list

›  “Extra slim, serrated working part, fine teeth and longitudinal groove in the beak.”

›  “Three-stage locking, the inner spring system leaves the beak in slightly open position – ready to use.”

›  “For gripping and removing broken instruments from the root canal.”

8400 or 4658?

Kohler position them as alternatives for the same job, not as a range – their film introduces the 4658 with the words “alternative to #8400 endo forceps”. The difference you are choosing on is that this one locks, and the 4658 is angled at 45 degrees. Both are £80 and both do the same work.
