Pin and Ligature Orthodontic Cutters

Pin and ligature orthodontic cutters are designed to cut soft wires, elastic ligatures and pins on orthodontic appliances. These cutters may be straight or angled, most commonly with a 15° or 45° angle, tapered for difficult to reach areas, and may feature a sliding lock joint or a box joint. The tips may be tungsten carbide for superior grip or have diamond-honed edges for flawless cutting. The pin and ligature cutters should be surgical grade stainless steel for strength and corrosion resistance, and be fully autoclavable.
