Woodpecker / DTE Lip Hooks / 1pk

In endodontic procedures, Woodpecker / DTE Lip Hooks are essential accessories used in conjunction with apex locators to accurately determine the working length of root canals. These hooks establish a circuit by connecting the apex locator to the patient's oral tissues, typically the lips, cheeks, or gingiva, ensuring precise measurements during treatment.

Key Features:

Ergonomic Design: Crafted for comfort and ease of use during endodontic procedures.
Lightweight Construction: Minimizes strain and enhances maneuverability.
Premium Materials: Ensures durability and long-term reliability in clinical settings.
Autoclavable: Can be sterilized under high temperature and pressure, effectively preventing cross-infection.

Usage Instructions:

• Preparation: Ensure all components, including the lip hook, are clean and properly sterilized.
• Attachment: Connect the lip hook to the measuring wire of the apex locator.
• Positioning: Place the lip hook in contact with the patient's lips, cheek, or gingiva. It can also be positioned under a rubber dam if necessary.
• Measurement: Insert the endodontic file into the root canal and observe the apex locator readings to determine the canal's working length.
• Post-Procedure Care: After use, remove the lip hook and autoclave it to maintain hygiene.

By ensuring a reliable connection between the apex locator and the patient's oral tissues, lip hooks play a crucial role in achieving accurate measurements during root canal treatments.
