Description
The Hu-Friedy West 9 Series Root Tip Picks are ultra-delicate apical instruments designed for precise removal of fractured root tips. This product groups the straight (9), left (9L), and right (9R) West patterns, allowing clinicians to select the appropriate orientation based on socket anatomy and access requirements.
All three instruments feature fine West-pattern working ends engineered for controlled root teasing in the apical third of the socket. The straight, left, and right configurations provide flexibility for direct, mesial, or distal access while maintaining consistent tactile feedback and control.
Manufactured from Immunity Steel™, these root tip picks are designed for strength, corrosion resistance, and durability through repeated sterilization. Handle options include the classic #6 satin stainless steel handle and the #503 stainless steel handle, offering different grip profiles while maintaining a balanced, controlled feel.
