A non-electric, hand-held dental instrument intended to be used to remove a permanent or temporary cemented dental prosthesis restoration (e.g., crown, denture, bridge) from a tooth or implant abutment; it is not a thermal detacher. It consists of a metallic instrument with a handle and a pointed, angled distal end used to secure the instrument at the margin of the prosthesis to be removed; it may be designed as a manual, pneumatic or spring-loaded instrument whereby light force is applied to detach the restoration. This is a reusable device.
