Description
The Hu-Friedy RAF Root Tip Picks are apical instruments designed for controlled removal of fractured root tips where precision and access are critical. The RAF pattern is used for careful root teasing and elevation in confined or deep sockets, supporting predictable apical manipulation without unnecessary bone disruption.
Both RAF 1 and RAF 3 feature fine working ends intended for accurate engagement of small root fragments. The difference between the two lies in their access profile, allowing clinicians to select the instrument that best matches socket anatomy and the direction of approach required.
Available patterns
RAF 1 – Straight access profile for direct apical engagement
RAF 3 – Angled access profile for improved reach in difficult-to-access areas
Key features
Fine RAF-pattern working ends for precise apical root tip removal
Straight and angled access options to match socket anatomy
Designed for controlled root teasing and fragment elevation
Surgical-grade stainless steel construction
Fully autoclavable
Clinical use
Removal of fractured root tips
Delicate apical root teasing procedures
Situations requiring precise control in narrow or deep sockets
Selection of straight or angled access based on approach requirements
