Monfort Crown Splitter
Constructed of surgical-grade German stainless steel, our Monfort Crown Splitter is an essential dental instrument designed for the efficient and controlled removal of crowns and bridges. Featuring a sharp, chisel-like beak and a high-leverage handle, this tool allows for precise sectioning and splitting of dental crowns with minimal damage to the underlying tooth structure.
- Beveled, Chisel-Tipped Beak: The sharp, angled design ensures clean and efficient sectioning, reducing the need for excessive force.
- High-Leverage, Box-Joint Design for Controlled Force Application: Enhances stability and grip, allowing for greater control while minimizing hand fatigue.
- Textured, Non-Slip Handles for Secure Grip: Ensures firm handling during procedures, improving precision and patient safety.
- Designed for Sectioning Metal and Porcelain Crowns: Ideal for removing single-unit crowns and bridges, even in cases where traditional crown removers are ineffective.
Applications:
- Crown Removal: Allows for efficient splitting of metal and porcelain crowns, ensuring a smooth and atraumatic removal process.
- Bridge Sectioning: Can be used to cut and separate fixed bridges before their removal.
- Endodontic and Restorative Procedures: Assists in removing crowns before root canal treatments or other restorative work.
- Minimizing Trauma During Extractions: Used in cases where sectioning a crown helps preserve the underlying tooth structure for further treatment.
- Orthodontic Band Removal: Effectively removes cemented orthodontic bands with controlled force, minimizing damage to enamel and surrounding structures.
The Monfort Crown Splitter was designed to streamline crown removal procedures, providing a mechanical alternative to rotary instruments. It is often used when crown-removing forceps or elevators are insufficient to detach a restoration. This instrument may also be referred to as a Monfort Crown Remover or a Monfort Bridge Cutter.
