Abstract
A dental apparatus includes a center gripping portion defining a central axis, a mesial portion and a distal portion. The mesial portion includes an open-oriented constant diameter tip, the first leg projecting at an obtuse angle and the second leg projecting orthogonally from the first leg toward the central axis. The distal portion includes a closed-oriented constant diameter tip, the first leg projecting at an obtuse angle parallel to the mesial tip first leg and the second leg projecting orthogonally from the distal tip first leg and away from the central axis parallel to the mesial tip second leg.
