That clearance hole exposes a bonded button or bracket the aligner tray would otherwise sit over, or relieves a spot where the aligner's edge is pressing into and irritating the gingival tissue.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fixed 6mm diameter is sized to clear a standard bonded attachment cleanly, without punching an oversized opening that leaves excess aligner material free to catch on soft tissue or reduces the aligner's retention more than the case requires.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eDesign and Handling\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause the punch produces a single clean round perforation in one action, it's faster and more consistent for this specific task than working an opening freehand with a trimming plier not shaped for a round cut, and it leaves a smoother edge around the hole that's less likely to catch or irritate soft tissue.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSurgiWorld stocks this plier alongside its full Clear Aligner Pliers range, covering the vertical, horizontal, tear drop, and hole punch jaw types a clear aligner practice needs for attachment seating, IPR accommodation, elastics hooks, and bracket or button clearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eMaterial and Sterilization\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eManufactured from medical-grade stainless steel, corrosion resistant and rated for full autoclave sterilization without losing jaw alignment or cutting sharpness over repeated cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eProduct Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul class=\"feature-list\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePunches a clean, round 6mm clearance hole through aligner material in one action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExposes bonded buttons or brackets the aligner would otherwise cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRelieves aligner edges impinging on and irritating gingival tissue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFixed 6mm diameter gives a consistent hole size every time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFaster and cleaner than freehand trimming for round clearance cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMedical-grade stainless steel, corrosion resistant, fully autoclavable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SurgiWorld","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67751069188410,"sku":"RT454","price":189.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0826\/2975\/5194\/files\/RT454_The-Hole-Punch-6mm.jpg?v=1792585440","url":"https:\/\/thedentalsolutions.ca\/products\/surgiworld-the-hole-punch-6mm-clear-aligner-plier-rt454","provider":"Dental Solutions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
