A Cheek Retractor, also known as a Mouth Retractor or Lip and Cheek Expander, is a dental instrument used to pull and hold the cheeks and lips away from the teeth and gums during dental or orthodontic procedures. This provides the dentist or hygienist with clear visibility and easy access to the working area inside the mouth.

Cowhorn Forceps are specialized dental extraction instruments designed for removing mandibular molars, particularly those with intact bifurcated roots. The name “cowhorn” comes from the distinctive curved beaks of the forceps, which resemble a cow’s horns. These beaks are engineered to grip deeply into the furcation (the space between the roots) and elevate the tooth out of its socket with minimal bone loss.
