A precision orthodontic plier designed specifically for the safe removal of molar bands with minimal patient discomfort. The compact 5.5-inch (≈14 cm) “short” configuration provides control and access in posterior regions, while the design ensures effective debonding of bands from teeth.

Key Features

• Compact Short Design (5.5″ / ~14 cm)
