Dental avulsion is a common surgical procedure in dentistry, often involving the use of forceps to grasp and remove the tooth from its socket. However, the use of forceps can be associated with a certain degree of trauma to the surrounding tissues, resulting in pain, swelling, and post-operative complications, such as bone and root fractures. In recent years, a new tooth extraction technique<\/strong> that does not require forceps, called “Extraction Without Forceps<\/strong>” (EWF<\/strong>), has been developed. This technique, conceived and perfected by me, Dr. Fabio Cozzolino, is based on using elevators to luxate and remove the tooth a-traumatically.<\/p>\n Levers are simple machines that allow the amplification of the applied force. The operating principle of a lever is based on the law of moments, according to which the moment of a force around a point is equal to the product of the force and its distance from the point. In other words, a small force applied at a great distance from the fulcrum can generate a large force at a short distance from the fulcrum.<\/p>\nPhysical Principles of Levers<\/h2>\n
