Welcome to DENTSPLY Ash Instruments

DENTSPLY Ash Instruments specialises in the manufacture of high-quality dental hand instruments and is a manufacturing division of DENTSPLY International. DENTSPLY International is the largest manufacturer of dental prosthetics and consumable dental products in the world and has factories in Europe, the Americas and Asia as well as sales distribution facilities scattered throughout the globe. Today the range includes a broad selection of scalers, curettes, restorative plastic instruments, rubber dam products, dental burs, forceps, and sundry items. This catalogue showcases the extraction product range. We also have separate catalogues for our periodontal range, restorative and sundries range, dental burs, and rubber dam, and are available on request, or via our website www.ash-instruments.com

Our origins
The Ash Instruments part in the DENTSPLY story began in 1820 when Claudius Ash, a man from a family of silversmiths and goldsmiths in London (UK) began making denture parts to order with his four sons. The business originally operated from premises in 9 Broad Street (now Broadwick Street), part of London's Soho district close to the famous names of Regent Street and Carnaby Street. By 1854, records show that the business had expanded to 8-9 Broad Street, and was employing 42 workers. During the mid 19th Century, the family business (known as Claudius Ash and Sons Ltd) prospered and the company began manufacturing and supplying a wide range of materials, including porcelain teeth, rubber and waxes, as well as early versions of the burs and hand instruments that Ash Instruments is known for today. By the turn of the 20th Century, the company was supplying products to over 30 countries. In 1924, the company expanded and merged with a Swiss company, DeTrey Ltd, to form the Amalgamated Dental Company Ltd. The company continued to grow until it was sold in 1976, when the major manufacturing businesses became part of the US-based DENTSPLY family, and the name DENTSPLY Ash Instruments was born (along with DENTSPLY DeTrey, based in Konstanz, Germany). Today, DENTSPLY Ash Instruments supplies its high quality product range to countries across the world via the global DENTSPLY network of companies and their dental dealer partners. Please ask your local DENTSPLY subsidiary or dental wholesalers for supplies outside the UK and Ireland.

Ash Instruments Extraction Equipment

All Ash Instruments Forceps, Elevators and Luxation instruments are precisely manufactured to the most exacting standards. To withstand the stresses of clinical use, Ash instruments are subject to vacuum heat treatment to ensure that correct hardness is achieved, without brittleness. This process also contributes to the high corrosion resistance and smooth surface finish of our Forceps, Elevators and Luxators. With correct care, your instruments will give years of trouble-free use. The instruments in this catalogue can be cleaned using all standard methods and all forceps should be lubricated after every application. Luxator and elevator blades should be kept sharp. To avoid risk of cross infection elevators and luxators should be sharpened after sterilisation and re-sterilised prior to use. The Ash Sharpening Kit is available to help you keep your instruments in optimal condition.

Luxation | Luxation Instruments

Ash Luxation Kit
Ash Luxation instrument tips are more finely tapered than excavators tips. Their characteristics are a combination of a Periotome and an elevator. The sharp tip enables more efficient cutting of the periodontal ligament, whilst the tapering shaft assists with controlled expansion of the bony socket. Many practitioners find that a large proportion of extraction procedures become totally forceps free, especially valuable for younger patients, as part of an orthodontic programme or in advance of implant placement. The Ash Luxation Kit comprises of four Luxation instruments, a straight and curved blade version in two different widths, a Lustra Heidebrink root pick elevator, and a sharpening stone and honing rod to keep the instruments in perfect condition.

Hand Instruments Forceps No.159 (Childrens upper premolars)
Product Code 62201159 Forceps No.159 1. WARNINGS:

Instruments are not sterile upon receipt and must be sterilised before use in accordance with the following instructions. Instruments can be damaged by alkaline and acidic detergents. Always use a pH neutral detergent or solution. Do not exceed 140C. Remove all packaging prior to cleaning and sterilisation. Contaminated instruments should be handled with gloves and eye protection should be used. Repeated processing has minimal effect on these instruments. End of life is normally determined by wear and damage due to use. See Inspection.

Visually inspect to ensure all contamination has been removed. Check for distortion, damage and wear. Cutting edges should be free of defects. Discard damaged, worn or corroded instruments.
8. INSPECTION AND FUNCTION TESTING: 9. DRYING:

Dry using paper towelling or dry heat not exceeding 140C.

Instructions
3. POINT OF USE:

10. PACKAGING FOR STERILISATION: The UK Department of Health recommends that validated, pre-vacuum autoclaves are used for sterilising wrapped instruments. Autoclaves drawing only a post-sterilisation vacuum for drying purposes are not suitable for processing wrapped instruments. Instruments may be loaded into dedicated instrument trays or general- purpose sterilisation trays. Ensure that cutting edges are protected. 11. STERILISATION:

Remove all excess soil with a disposable cloth

paper wipe.
4. CONTAINMENT AND TRANSPORTATION: Protect delicate or fine instruments from damage. Instruments should be reprocessed as soon as is reasonably practical following use. Instruments left standing wet may stain or corrode. 5. PREPARATION FOR CLEANING:

Use only validated vacuum autoclaves (Refer to HTM2010: UK only). Do not exceed 140C.
Sterilisation Temperature Range (C) Min 134 Max 137 0.225 3 Nominal Pressure (MPa) Minimum Time at Temperature* (mins)

No specific requirements.

Disassembly not required.

6. AUTOMATIC CLEANING:

Forceps No.162 (Childrens lower anteriors and roots)

Product Code 62201162 Forceps No.162

Use only validated washing machines (HTM 2030: UK only) and validated cleaning agents suitable for both instruments and washing machine. Follow instructions issued by both the equipment and cleaning agent manufacturers. When unloading, inspect for complete removal of visible soil. If necessary, repeat cycle, or use manual cleaning before repeating cycle.

* Minimum holding time when nominal operating temperature and pressure have been reached.

12. STORAGE:

Avoid contamination.

13. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

7. MAINTENANCE: Apply a small quantity of surgical grade lubrication oil to forceps hinges prior to sterilisation.

When sterilising multiple instruments in one autoclave cycle, ensure that the manufacturers stated maximum load is not exceeded. Validated ultrasonic baths may be used with validated cleaning agents. Follow instructions for use issued by both the equipment and cleaning agent manufacturers.
