One round beak and one square beak let you form loops and bends in round wires of various diameters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eDesign and Handling\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe round beak shapes the inside of a loop, and the square beak holds the wire and provides a flat edge for bending. Rolling the wire around the round beak creates a loop of a consistent size, while the square beak is used for angular bends.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHold the wire near the end of the beaks for small loops, and farther back for larger ones.\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.
