The Artman Root Extraction Screw for Back Teeth is specifically designed to assist clinicians in the controlled removal of broken or retained posterior tooth roots. This precision instrument features a sharp, pointed tip with H-file–style threading that gradually locks into the root canal as it is rotated clockwise, ensuring secure engagement without excessive force. When used correctly, the tool allows predictable root removal while preserving surrounding bone structure.
The ergonomic handle provides stability and tactile control, enabling gentle and controlled traction along the natural axis of the tooth. A safety hole is incorporated into the screw head to allow floss attachment, reducing the risk of accidental slippage during intraoral use. Manufactured from premium medical-grade stainless steel, the instrument offers durability, corrosion resistance, and consistent performance under repeated sterilization cycles.
