Orthodontic Forming pliers
in orthodontics are used to create specific shapes and configurations in wires and appliances.
Their function includes:
-
Forming loops, springs, and clasps
-
Shaping archwires and auxiliary components
-
Customizing orthodontic appliances to fit the patient
In short, they are used for precise shaping and fabrication of orthodontic wire components.
