<p><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Extraction procedures are sometimes traumatic and may require more postoperative healing time. As dentists, we want a quick and efficient procedure that is comfortable for patients as well. Using the right tools creates all the difference required for quick post-operative healing. This also aids in a completely Atraumatic procedure that can allow immediate replacement of teeth.</span></span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">The Atraumatic extraction technique focuses on causing minimal trauma to the surrounding bone and tissues. This preserves the Jaw bone, and the technique is acceptable to first-time nervous patients as well.</span></span></span></p>

<h2><strong>How is it Done?</strong></h2>

<p><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">The conventional technique for extraction uses forceps to wriggle the tooth out of its socket. Horizontal forces are applied to the tooth to tear away the periodontal fibers and pull the tooth out. The Atraumatic tooth extraction technique involves the use of specialized instruments. These apply vertical forces on the tooth to prevent adjacent soft tissues from unnecessary damage.</span></span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">To be in control of the procedure, you need to have the correct instruments. Suitable instruments and techniques will give you the best overall advantage. Correct instruments have narrow tips and working ends to prevent tearing of the gingiva. It also prevents the buccal bone from damage. Correct instruments focus their work on the roots. These can navigate the periodontal space and help sever the ligament while still expanding the socket appropriately.</span></span></span></p>

<h2><strong>Instruments:</strong></h2>

<p><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">The <a href="https://www.gerdentusa.com//surgical-dental-atraumatic-extraction-kit"><strong>Atraumatic extraction kit</strong></a> includes three Anglevators and six forceps. The kit is ideal for clean extraction procedures anywhere in the mouth. Anglevators are instruments that combine the effects of six instruments in one. While using the Anglevator, there is no need to switch back between instruments for extraction. The Anglevator works efficiently as a Periotome, Crane pick, Luxator, Chisel, Elevator, and Proximator. This instrument not only luxates but elevates the tooth out of its socket. It severs the periodontal fibers and goes apically to expand the socket and lift the tooth out. This instrument cleanly luxates and elevates the teeth and makes it easier for the forceps to grasp the luxated tooth. The Atraumatic extraction kit includes a five-millimeter Anglevator and a 3mm Anglevator right and left.</span></span></span><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">&nbsp;</span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">The kit also includes Universal forceps, Universal mini forceps, Bird beak, Bird beak mini, Cowhorn, and 222 forceps. The universal forceps are instruments that can remove any teeth in the mouth. The beaks are designed to conform to facial and lingual root contour. Both beaks of the forceps fit equally well on the facial and lingual surfaces of the right and left quadrants of the mouth. Universal mini forceps feature a small beak for anterior teeth and premolars. </span></span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Bird beak forceps are instruments that remove the mandibular anterior teeth and premolars. These forceps have a gap between their beaks when closed. This is to conform to the junction between the crown and root of the tooth. Mini Bird Beak forceps extract teeth that are smaller than the usual size.</span></span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">The cow-horn forceps are unique instruments that come in use to extract mandibular first and second molars. The cow horn design features pointed beaks that conform to the bifurcation of the mesial and distal roots. The Forceps grasps the tooth by the furcation to deliver it Occlusal. The wider aperture of the forceps allows crown grasping while the narrow pointed beaks provide better access to the furcation and permit easy access inside the surrounding denser mucosa. The finer shape of the Cowhorn prongs limits any defect to the surrounding mucosa. The use of furcation forceps provides a better mechanical advantage for the extraction of the most difficult teeth. These instruments, in conjunction with the Anglevators, are used for <strong>Atraumatic extraction procedures</strong>.</span></span></span><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">&nbsp;</span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">The 222 forceps are third molar extraction instruments designed to conform to the complex anatomy of the third molar teeth. Their short conical beaks are ideal for performing third molar extraction procedures. </span></span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">All in all, the <strong>Atraumatic extraction kit</strong> includes all <a href="https://www.gerdentusa.com/pages/dental-surgical-instruments"><strong>Dental surgical instruments</strong></a> that are needed for a clean and effective extraction procedure. <strong>Atraumatic extraction</strong> is the best solution for the placement of immediate implants. Conventional extraction techniques and instruments delay the socket&#39;s healing, and hence implant placement is difficult in these cases. The healing time for an Atraumatic extraction alone is about two weeks. Hence, the key takeaways are that the extraction kit includes instruments that feature fine blades that compress the alveolar bone, cut the membrane, and ease the tooth from its socket. The ergonomically shaped handles of the instruments provide good control. The instruments preserve bone integrity with minimal damage</span></span></span></p>
