Dentra Children's Extraction Forceps Fig 139, Upper Premolars, Spring Handle
Dentra Fig 139 is a children's extraction forceps for upper premolars, with a spring handle. Paediatric forceps are not simply smaller adult instruments. A child's mouth gives less working room, primary and newly erupted teeth have finer roots that fracture more easily, and the whole procedure has to be completed before the child's cooperation runs out. The spring is the detail that matters most in practice: it returns the beaks to the open position on its own, so the operator never has to force the handles apart with the fingers between attempts. That frees the hand for grip and control, and it keeps the instrument compact in the palm, which is quietly useful when managing an anxious child.

Supplied non-sterile, sterilise before use
- This instrument is supplied non-sterile. It must be decontaminated and sterilised in line with the receiving practice's decontamination policy before any clinical use, including before first use.
- For use by a suitably qualified dental professional. Extraction technique, case selection and instrument choice are clinical decisions.
- Paediatric patterns are sized for children's teeth. Applying a children's forceps to an adult tooth risks damaging the instrument and fracturing the tooth.
- Inspect the beaks, the tips, the joint, the handle alignment and the spring action before each use. Confirm the spring returns the beaks fully and evenly.
- Retained primary roots close to a developing permanent tooth need care in instrument selection. That is a clinical judgement, not a property of the forceps.
Where Fig 139 is used
Fig 139 is listed in children's forceps ranges as the upper premolar pattern, and it belongs to the group of paediatric figures a practice carries together, alongside upper incisor, upper molar, lower incisor, lower molar and root patterns. Practices doing regular paediatric extraction work generally build that set rather than buying one figure at a time.
The design differences from an adult instrument are consistent across the range. The beaks are smaller and more closely set, so they seat on a small crown without the operator having to open the instrument wide in a small mouth. The overall instrument is shorter and lighter, which improves tactile feedback when the force needed is a fraction of an adult extraction. And the spring holds the instrument open between applications, which is the difference between a smooth sequence of attempts and a fumble with both hands in a child's mouth.
Key features
Children's upper premolar pattern, sized and shaped for a child's tooth rather than scaled down from an adult instrument.
Spring handle, returning the beaks to the open position without the operator forcing the handles apart, which frees the hand for grip and control.
Compact in the palm, which helps when managing an anxious child and keeps the instrument less visually imposing.
Smaller closely set beaks, seating on a small crown without opening wide in a confined mouth.
Better tactile feedback at the low forces a paediatric extraction requires, which matters when fine roots fracture easily.
Part of a paediatric set, alongside upper incisor, upper molar, lower incisor, lower molar and root patterns for children.
Stainless steel construction, reusable and suited to repeated steam sterilisation.
Dentra own brand from Elarix Medical, individually referenced as REF 60139 so reordering is by code rather than description.

Figure numbering and confirmed specification
Figure 139 denotes the children's upper premolar pattern in paediatric forceps ranges. The same number is used for a different indication in some adult catalogues, so this reference should be ordered as the children's pattern described here rather than by number alone. Overall length, beak dimensions, joint type, the forceps pattern designation and the exact steel grade are not stated here pending confirmation against the production record and material certificate. Ask before ordering if any of these details is needed.
Reprocessing and care
| Stage | Action |
|---|---|
| Before first use | Remove all packaging, decontaminate and sterilise |
| Point of use | Keep the instrument moist after use so blood and debris do not dry into the serrations, the joint and the spring |
| Cleaning | Process per the practice decontamination policy, with the joint opened fully so the hinge and the spring seat are reached |
| Inspection | Check beak alignment, tip integrity, joint movement and that the spring returns the beaks fully and evenly |
| Lubrication | Apply instrument lubricant to the joint where the local policy requires it |
| Sterilisation | Steam sterilise per the validated cycle for the load, with the instrument in the open position |
| Storage | Store dry and protected, avoiding contact that could chip a beak tip or distort the spring |
| Withdrawal | Remove from service on any sign of corrosion, cracking, beak misalignment, a slack joint or a weakened spring |
The above is general guidance. The practice decontamination policy and current national guidance on decontamination in primary care dental practices take precedence.
