• Features parallel short pad beaks specifically constructed to grasp rectangular wires securely. • Delivers optimal leverage for applying precise degree-specific torquing forces along arch wires. • Enables accurate formation of 90-degree bends and intraoral offset modifications without wire slippage. • Crafted from premium surgical stainless steel to ensure high structural integrity and long-term durability. • Designed with smooth, rounded handle contours to maximize tactile feedback and clinician comfort. • Facilitates repeatable wire handling during classic Tweed and ribbon arch clinical mechanics. • Maintains precise alignment at the working ends to protect wires from localized structural damage or surface scoring. • Engineered to endure repeated autoclave cycles and chemical disinfection standard in orthodontic practice.

The GDC Ribbon / Tweed Arch - Short Pad Plier (3000/51) is a specialized orthodontic hand instrument built specifically for detailed wire bending and torque application. Engineered for use with rectangular and square wires, this tool allows orthodontists to make precise localized adjustments that are fundamental to achieving targeted tooth movement during treatment.

Featuring a short pad beak geometry, the plier delivers concentrated gripping force directly to designated wire sections. This specialized shape enables clinicians to execute sharp 90-degree bends, offset step-bends, and controlled third-order torque adjustments while minimizing unnecessary distortion along adjacent segments of the archwire.

Constructed from surgical-grade stainless steel, the instrument combines structural durability with resistance to corrosion. Its smooth, ergonomic handles ensure comfortable handling during demanding archwire fabrication tasks, and the complete assembly withstands standard thermal autoclaving procedures for routine clinical reuse.

1 Pack Contains: • 1 × GDC Ribbon / Tweed Arch - Short Pad Plier (3000/51)

1.Clean and autoclave the plier prior to clinical use according to standard infection control protocols.

2.Select the appropriate rectangular or square arch wire segment requiring modification or torque placement.

3.Position the short pad working tips securely onto the target wire segment.

4.Squeeze the ergonomic handles to engage a firm, non-slip hold across the wire surface.

5.Apply controlled rotational or bending force to impart the required torque angle or offset bend.

6.Verify wire geometry against the arch template before final intraoral placement.

7.Disinfect, clean, and sterilize the instrument following completion of the procedure.
