Flush Cut and Hold Distal End Cutter (Long Handle-Rolled Body)

One of Orthopli's most popular choices of flush distal end cutters, offering all the benefits of a long handle along with a rolled body and rolled tip. The rolled body and tip create a sleek and more slender instrument. This end cutter creates easy access for cutting in the posterior region. By using a longer handle it allows the operator to reach the instrument in an adult patient's mouth during cutting offering more visible access and more comfort to the patient. Flush distal end cutters permit the operator to cut and hold an arch wire flush to the buccal tube leaving no protrusions which will irritate the patient. At the same time the built in holding spring will hold the cut piece of wire preventing the wire from flying into tissue.
