APICAL9 - Complete Set of 9 Apical Retention Forceps
The Complete Set of 9 Apical Retention Forceps by Karl Schumacher expands on dentistry’s original solution for atraumatic extractions. Engineered with five major mechanical advantages, these forceps are designed to help overcome the limitations of traditional designs, which often provide only minor, supra-gingival contact.
Featuring parallel, anatomically correct beaks, Apical Retention Forceps help achieve greater surface contact along the tooth. Their sharpened, tapered outer profile is intended to assist penetration deep into the alveolus for a more secure purchase on the root structure. Precision-cut longitudinal serrations within the beaks can help facilitate engagement during axial rotation, supporting a confident and secure grip throughout the procedure.
Building on the original Full Set of Six, this expanded collection includes narrow versions of the Upper and Lower Universal Forceps for crowded situations, as well as both Standard and Narrow Ash-pattern Forceps for canines and premolars.
For over 20 years, Karl Schumacher Apical Retention Forceps have been trusted by practitioners to help reduce the risk of root fracture and securely engage compromised teeth—delivering the superior surgical results clinicians and patients expect.
