114 Johnson Contouring Pliers – Precision Band & Crown Shaping Instrument

This instrument is engineered for the contouring and adjustment of orthodontic bands, crowns, partial dentures, and retainers. It features specialized concave and convex tips that allow precise adaptation of metal components to tooth anatomy, ensuring optimal fit and comfort.

Key Features

• Concave & Convex Tip Design
  One beak is concave, the opposite convex, allowing the pliers to shape both the interior and exterior surfaces of crowns, bands or metal frameworks for a snug and anatomically accurate fit.

• Box-Joint Construction
