Dental retractors are instruments used in dentistry to hold back soft tissue such as the lips, cheeks, or tongue during dental procedures. These instruments provide better visibility and access to the area being worked on, allowing the dentist or dental hygienist to work more effectively and efficiently.

There are several types of dental retractors, including:

  1. Lip retractors: These are used to hold the lips out of the way during dental procedures. They can be made of metal or plastic and come in various sizes.
  2. Cheek retractors: These are used to hold the cheeks away from the teeth and gums, providing a clear view of the area being worked on. They can also be made of metal or plastic and come in various sizes.
  3. Tongue retractors: These are used to hold the tongue down and out of the way during dental procedures. They are typically made of metal and come in various sizes and shapes.
  4. Mouth prop retractors: These are used to hold the patient’s mouth open during dental procedures. They are typically made of plastic and come in various sizes and shapes.

Overall, dental retractors play an important role in maintaining a clear field of view during dental procedures and ensuring that the dentist or dental hygienist can work effectively and efficiently.
