Standard Extraction Procedure

Step 1 Separate the gingival attachment from the tooth. All upper teeth, including molars can be extracted without any sectioning. Lowers molars occasionally need to be sectioned (lingual buccal) to insure a more predictable extraction, by significantly reducing resistance to extracting forces.	Step 2 With the handles wide open, set the beak into the depth of the lingual or palatal sulcus on solid root surface. A secure purchase point on solid root surface is critical to successfully rolling out the tooth. When necessary, create a small trench with a small flame shaped diamond burr to engage the beak more securely on solid root surface.
Step 3 Set the bumper perpendicular to the tooth at about the level of the mucogingival junction. Holding that position securely, Freeze Don't Squeeze the handles. Note: the greater the distance between the beak and the bumper, the greater the arc of rotation, consequently achieving vertical lift.	Step 4 WITHOUT SQUEEZING THE HANDLES OR MOVING YOUR ARM, begin to apply a steady, very slow rotational force in the direction of the bumper. Patiently, continue to apply this steady force for 30 to 40 seconds. This force or creep will continue to build, allowing time for the periodontal ligament to release, the bone to slowly expand and the tooth to disengage.
Step 5 The buccal rotation of the tooth and vertical lift is successful by rotating your wrist only. This wrist action is very similar to using a bottle opener. You will soon feel the tooth move and slightly elevate occlusally from the socket. Stop rotating at this point.	Step 6 Initially, you may want to avoid unnecessary damage to the buccal plate by not proceeding with the Physics Forceps beyond the first sign of the tooth 'popping' loose. If the tooth has not elevated sufficiently to grasp it with your fingers, consider using a hemostat, rongeurs or conventional forceps to lift it out.

FAQ

How do the Physics Forceps differ from the conventional forceps?

Regular extraction forceps’ beaks are adapted to the buccal and lingual contours of the tooth. Rotational and tractional movements are used (squeezing, pulling, grabbing). Current Instruments require two equal forces placed on the crown of the tooth, and a third force to extract the tooth with your arm. If the crown is missing or the tooth is decayed you need to lay a flap, cut the bone, and perform surgery to remove the tooth. This is time consuming, painful, and traumatic for the patient.

The Physics Forceps® requires no squeezing, pulling, or grabbing. Instead, once in position the handles are rotated toward the facial aspect of the tooth. The Physics Forceps® require two opposing forces. The first force is placed into the lingual sulcus of the tooth below the gingival with the beak. The second force is placed on the alveolar ridge with the bumper. These two opposing forces cancel the need for a third force. If the crown is missing or the tooth is decayed there is no need to lay a flap because these same principles apply.

Do the Physics Forceps® fracture the buccal bone?

If used properly the Physics Forceps® will rarely cause fracture. When a rotating force is applied, the stress to the tooth and periodontal complex is increased. The force applied to the gums and bone by the bumper of the Physics Forceps® is a compressive force that braces the buccal bone. If you think there is a slight possibility we suggest taking a flame shaped diamond bur to remove buccal tooth structure a mm or two apically.

Is elevating required with the Physics Forceps®?

No. Although in some cases you may want to separate the gingival attachment from the tooth.

Do you need to reflect a flap with these instruments?

No. The Physics Forceps® virtually eliminates the need for surgical flaps.

Does the Physics Forceps® work on teeth that have divergent roots?

Yes, sectioning is advised only on lower molars when roots appear to be divergent.

Is sectioning required with the Physics Forceps®?

All upper teeth including molars can be extracted without any sectioning. Lower molars with divergent roots can be sectioned to ensure a more predictable extraction, by significantly reducing resistance to extracting forces (due to bone density and curvation of roots).

Do the Physics Forceps work on endodontically treated teeth?

Yes, extraction of endodontically treated teeth requires a greater distance between the bumper and beak, and requires a good purchase point. While extracting these teeth one must go exceptionally slow (suggested extra 15 to 20-seconds, or more).

Do the instruments work on teeth that have been decayed at the gumline?

Yes. When necessary, create a small trench on the lingual, with a small flame shaped diamond burr to engage the beak more securely on solid root surface.

Can they extract root tips?

Yes, if one can engage the beak into the lingual or palatal sulcus of the root, the root tips can easily be removed with out reflecting a flap. If necessary, create a trench (with a flame shaped diamond bur) to obtain a good purchase point.

Testimonials

My patient was a 72 year old white female with a fractured mesial root on tooth 19. There were divided roots and very little lingual purchase however I was able to easily extract the tooth using slightly longer and lighter pressure.

- Dr. Walter Dimmitt (Port Huron, Michigan)

Got the Physics Forceps yesterday(4/8/2008). I watched the video at home last night. I just took out 25 teeth in 18 minutes with no loss or fracture of bone anywhere. One of the upper canines had two roots, and it came out in under 1 minute. All of these teeth had gross decay around the gum line. At least half of them would have required surgical extractions "the old way". The other doctors in our office watched, along with our staff. We are all believers. Forget that 90 day guarantee; you'll have to pry these wonders of physics from my cold dead fingers. Thanks for a great product.
-Dr. Judd Boehme (Rolla, Missouri)

My patient was a 49 year old white female with a lower molar decayed to bone level on tooth 30. The tooth was solid and double rooted so I experienced some creep however with longer steady pressure the Physics Forceps worked like a charm!

- Dr. Walter Dimmitt (Port Huron, Michigan)

Unbelievably, everything you say about the Physics Forceps is true. They really work. It’s not like “pulling teeth” anymore. For a change, there is no “buyer’s remorse.”

- Jerry Rosenbaum DDS, MS, (Ft. Lauderdale, Florida)

The best dental instruments I have seen!! They live up to every expectation I had. In fact, I believe the manufacturer understates their usefulness!!
- Dr. Michael Creighan (Nova Scotia, Canada)

This instrument is going to change the way I practice dentistry!!! Thanks again for your help in getting me started with these wonderful instruments... I have a presentation scheduled with my study club with the typodont... I can't wait to share this "find" with my colleagues!!
- Gregory F Ceraso DMD

Great Instrument!!

- HD Allick Maryland (Rockville, Maryland)

I just wanted to say I used the Physics Forceps for the first two times this past week (#4 and #20 both decayed to the
gum line). Both teeth were out in less than 1 minute and I was elated. These forceps are fantastic!

- Dr. Justin Dugas

To date I have extracted over 50 teeth with the physics forceps. I have only used them since I received them. Access to mandibular second and third molars can be difficult. More offset from the handle could make this a little easier. I would like to see a smaller instrument for primary teeth. All in all, I continue to be extremely amazed and impressed.
