The “N” in Fig. 67N stands for a narrower beak configuration, purpose-built for upper third molars in patients with tighter arch widths or reduced interdental spacing. Standard third-molar forceps can feel oversized in these cases, making initial engagement harder than it needs to be.
Article-NES-073 trims down the beak profile without sacrificing the structural strength needed to withstand the leverage applied during extraction. The tips remain wide enough to grip securely along the root surface, but the overall footprint is slim enough to slide into position with less soft tissue displacement—a detail that matters when working around inflamed or crowded posterior sites.
Like every piece in the NES catalog, this instrument is forged from surgical-grade stainless steel and built to survive repeated autoclave sterilization without warping or losing tip accuracy. The handle retains the same balanced weighting found across the broader range of extracting forceps, so clinicians switching between narrow and standard models don’t lose the muscle memory they’ve built up over years of practice.
At $28 per unit, NES-073 is a smart addition for oral surgery practices that regularly encounter narrow-arch patients or tighter surgical fields. Order 100 or more units and receive a 10% volume discount through Next Edge Surgical LLC.
