The tips are designed to grasp each Radiance bracket under the tie wing rather than making contact at the enamel/adhesive interface. These pliers are pre-adjusted with set screws to ensure that an optimal amount of pressure is applied to the bracket when the handles are squeezed together. To debond Radiance brackets, place the opposing tips of the pliers occlusal/gingival under the tie wings while applying constant pressure to the handles of the pliers. Gently move the angle of the instrument to the occlusal or gingival of the tooth with increasing force until the Radiance bracket releases from the tooth. 001-408 Replacement tips (Qty. 2 with wrench) Tips are easily replaced and should be disinfected prior to use. Wedge tips between bracket base and tooth either mesial/ distal or occlusal/gingival. Place opposing tips occlusal/gingival under the tie wings and gently angle instrument in one direction, either occlusally or gingivally. 001-301E Ceramic Bracket Debonding Pliers Also known as Sushi pliers, this unique debonding instrument is specially designed for removing ceramic brackets. Only one edge of each blade is sharpened to ensure optimal fit along the enamel/adhesive interface. Opposing edges are parallel when the debonding instrument is open 3 mm, which is the average width of a ceramic bracket. Leave arch wires and ligatures in place during debonding. Remove adhesive flash from the mesial and distal edges of the bracket. Place debonding blades along the enamel/adhesive interface. Squeeze handles slowly until bracket releases from the tooth. 001-301E Debonding blades are parallel when placed along mesial and distal sides of ceramic brackets, ensuring consistent debonding. Remove adhesive flash. Place tips mesial/distal along interface between tooth and adhesive and squeeze slowly. 800.558.7687 | 920.457.5051
