SurgiWorld – Straight Steiglitz Post and Point Removal Forceps

Clinical Use

The Straight Steiglitz Post and Point Removal Forceps are used to remove silver points, separated files and broken posts. The narrow profile and straight alignment make it a first choice for deep canal access where visibility and a firm grip are essential.

Design and Handling

The straight pattern follows the line of the canal, so the beaks can reach the end of the object without being deflected. The narrow profile leaves space beside the instrument for visibility and irrigation.

It is best for anterior teeth and wherever the canal opening can be seen directly.

Retrieval Technique

Retrieving a silver point, post or separated file is done under magnification with good light. Create access to the exposed end, take hold of it with the beaks, and apply gentle, steady pressure along the line of the canal. A twisting or rocking movement will often loosen a point that a straight pull does not.

Take your time. Forcing the retrieval can fracture the root or push the object deeper. Rinse and clean the beaks after each case so debris is not left between the serrations.

Retrieval forceps are fine instruments, so avoid using them to pry, and check that the beaks still meet cleanly before each case.

Material and Sterilization

Made from medical grade stainless steel. Autoclavable for repeated sterilization cycles. Clean and dry the instrument after each use, and check the working ends for wear or damage before it goes into the pouch.
