GDC Tweed O’Brien Plier (3000/97)

GDC Tweed O’Brien Plier (3000/97) is a specialized orthodontic instrument designed for precise bending and manipulation of metal strips and orthodontic wires. It features a graduated cone that allows accurate formation of omega loops and closing loops, supporting detailed and controlled wire adjustments during treatment.

The micro-serrated beaks provide a secure grip on the wire, effectively preventing slippage while ensuring non-marring performance. This makes the plier ideal for creating small helical loops, performing intraoral tip-back bends, and forming precise 90-degree angles on stainless steel wires. It is especially suitable for working with square and rectangular archwires, including utility archwires, and for de-torquing archwire ends.

Designed with fine precision tips, the plier supports accurate wire contouring, clasp adjustment, and appliance bending. Its versatility allows orthodontists to hold, shape, and manipulate wires efficiently, as well as create controlled contact points for adjacent teeth. Durable, reliable, and easy to handle, the GDC Tweed O’Brien Plier is an essential tool for advanced orthodontic procedures requiring accuracy and consistency.

The Tweed Arch (Loop) Forming Plier is used to create closing loops in square or rectangular wires. Graduated cone to form precise omega and closing loops. Micro serrated beaks to prevent wire slippage.
