How to choose the forceps to be used on each tooth?

To extract this type of teeth whose characteristic root shape is conical and flattened in the mesiodistal direction, the ideal solution is a straight button to perform the dislocation and a straight forceps for upper incisors. The jaws of this forceps are rectangular and the internal faces are concave, perfect for adapting to the convexity of the vestibular and palatal faces of the tooth. The width of the forceps should be chosen according to the thickness of the neck of the tooth.
