They crimp the cervical edges of the band to create a snug seal that prevents cement wash-out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eDesign and Handling\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eA band that stands off the tooth at the cervical margin lets saliva reach the cement and wash it out. Crimping brings the edge in against the tooth, so the band closes against the enamel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCrimp the margin a little at a time, check the fit and make sure the edge is not so tight that the band will not seat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCare and Handling\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrthodontic pliers should be used only for the job they are made for. Check that the tips meet evenly before each use, and do not use these pliers to cut wire, which will damage the working surfaces. Keep the box joint free of resin and cement, and put a drop of instrument lubricant on it before sterilization so the pliers keep opening and closing smoothly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRun a cloth or brush over serrations and grooves during cleaning, because debris trapped there reduces grip.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePliers stored loose in a drawer can knock their tips out of alignment. Keep them in a cassette or tray so the beaks are protected between uses and the instrument is ready when the next patient sits down.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eMaterial and Sterilization\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eMade from medical grade stainless steel.
