The Miltex 17 Extraction Forcep is the classic and highly specialized surgical instrument designed explicitly for the controlled and non-surgical removal of first and second molars in the lower jaw (mandible). This essential posterior instrument is crafted in Germany from high-grade, durable surgical stainless steel, ensuring maximum strength, superior longevity, and complete resistance to corrosion through repeated sterilization cycles.

The forcep is typically available in an American pattern design and measures approximately 6-1/2 inches (16.5cm) in overall length, which provides the necessary mechanical advantage and optimal leverage required for extracting large, multi-rooted lower molars.5 Its unique and critical feature is the angled beak design; the beaks are bent specifically to adapt to the buccal and lingual root surfaces, allowing the operator to reach deep into the posterior region and establish a firm, subgingival purchase on the tooth. The working ends are universally contoured with two points fitting into the buccal bifurcation (furcation) and one point fitting into the lingual area of the molar, ensuring stable, three-point contact and minimizing the risk of root fracture during extraction movements. If you are searching for the best standard lower molar extraction forcep then the Miltex 17, with its precision-angled beaks and German-engineered strength for maximum grip on the multi-rooted lower molars, is best for you because it delivers reliable, universal access and controlled force in the demanding mandibular posterior region.

This instrument is supplied as a single unit (Quantity: 1), representing a cornerstone tool for lower posterior exodontia procedures.
