Ivory Type Rubber Dam Forceps

The Ivory Type Rubber Dam Forceps by Businessmed Instruments are engineered for superior performance in clamp placement and retrieval during dental isolation procedures. Designed for both anterior and posterior applications, these forceps help dentists achieve reliable field isolation quickly and with precision. With an integrated locking ring and smooth spring mechanism, the Ivory Type Forceps minimize hand fatigue while maximizing clamp control, allowing seamless workflow in general dentistry, restorative work, and endodontic procedures.

Built from surgical-grade stainless steel, these forceps are autoclavable and resistant to corrosion, ensuring safe, long-term use in clinical environments. Whether used by experienced clinicians or students in training, these forceps improve procedural safety, visibility, and moisture control. Their universal compatibility with all standard rubber dam clamps makes them a practical choice for daily operatory use. Compared to alternatives like Brewer Type Rubber Dam Forceps or University of Washington Type Rubber Dam Forceps, the Ivory style is favored for its locking-ring stability and precise tip alignment.
