Hole Punch Pliers Clear Aligner Braces Plier

Hole Punch Pliers – Clear Aligner / Braces Tool

These Hole Punch Pliers are specialized orthodontic instruments made to create precise cutouts in clear aligners and thermoformed retainers. The tool enables the punching of half-moon or circular holes to accommodate elastic hooks, buttons, or to relieve aligner pressure around attachments. By removing small segments of the aligner plastic, it prevents impingement on soft tissue and helps secure anchorage points without compromising the integrity of the appliance.

Key Features

• Half-Moon or Circular Punch Design
  Precisely cuts out material in a half-moon or circular shape to create space for bonded attachments (like buttons) or soft-tissue relief points.

• Soft Tissue Clearance
  Removes plastic strategically to avoid aligner impingement on gums or delicate oral areas, improving patient comfort.

• Surgical-Grade Stainless Steel Construction
  Made from corrosion-resistant stainless steel to withstand repeated clinical use and sterilization.

• Ergonomic Grip & Precise Control
  Designed with a balanced handle and textured grip for controlled manipulation and accurate placement.

• Autoclavable & Reusable
  Built to endure standard sterilization cycles, making it suitable for long-term clinical use.

• Multiple Size Options
  Available in different punch diameters, such as 3 mm, to accommodate various aligner systems and clinical needs.

Applications

• Creating relief cutouts in clear aligners around elastic buttons or hooks for better treatment mechanics.
