Description
This is a description of forceps, which are a type of medical tool. Forceps are used to grasp and stabilize soft tissue during suturing. They are typically used in oral surgery to grasp loose, excised tissue as well as to manage placement of oral tissue while it is being sutured. Serrated forceps are used on tissue; counter-intuitively, teeth will damage tissue less than a smooth surface because one can grasp with less overall pressure. Smooth or cross-hatched forceps are used to move dressings, remove sutures and similar tasks.
