Orthodontic Instruments
Hu-Friedy Orthodontic Slim Collection
Hu-Friedy’s complete line of slim orthodontic instruments allows practitioners to deliver the ultimate in patient care, with eight instruments
whose working ends are, on average, 10% - 50% slimmer than other orthodontic instruments on the market today. The collection includes
cutters, pliers, tweezers and a distal cinch back hand instrument, all featuring a slimmer working end. The Hu-Friedy Slim Collection, like
all Hu-Friedy orthodontic instruments, is manufactured with the company’s exclusive Immunity Steel
®
which ensures long-lasting, precision
performance. Additionally, unlike other orthodontic instruments on the market, Hu-Friedy orthodontic instruments are designed to withstand
the rigours of steam sterilisation while still maintaining their beauty and functionality.
