Articulating paper forceps are dental instruments that are used to hold and manipulate articulating paper, which is a thin paper used to check the patient’s occlusion or “bite.” The forceps are designed with two blades that can be used to grasp the articulating paper and position it in the patient’s mouth.
Articulating paper is typically used during dental restorative procedures to ensure that the patient’s teeth are properly aligned and balanced. The paper is placed between the upper and lower teeth, and the patient is instructed to bite down. The pressure of the bite will leave a mark on the paper, which can then be evaluated to determine if any adjustments are needed to the restoration or the patient’s bite.
Articulating paper forceps make it easier to manipulate the paper and position it precisely between the teeth, allowing for accurate evaluation of the occlusion. The forceps are typically made of stainless steel, which is durable and easy to sterilize to prevent cross-contamination between patients.
When using articulating paper forceps, it’s important to be gentle and avoid applying too much pressure to the teeth or surrounding tissues. The forceps should be sterilized before and after each use, and any damaged or worn forceps should be replaced to ensure reliable and accurate results.
