Abstract:
A pair of dental pliers for use by a parent to extract a non-permanent tooth from a child's mouth. The dental pliers include a left leg and a right leg that are pivotally engaged with each other. Each of the left and right legs has a handle and a jaw. The handles are fabricated from a flexible material that flexes when too much force is applied thereto when moving the jaws to a closed position. The flexible handles thus limit the amount of force that may be applied to extract a tooth. The jaws include jaw tips that taper inwardly toward each other and angle downwardly from the handles. The jaw tips include angled interior surfaces that define a cupped region shaped to be able to contact a base of the tooth during the extraction process. The pliers are able to be cleaned and sanitized in a dishwasher after use.

Claim (Index 24):
The method according to  claim 16 , wherein the providing of dental pliers having jaw tips further comprises:\n providing the jaw tips as detachable members that include a shaft and a head; inserting the shaft of each jaw tip into a socket defined at an end of the second region of the base of the jaw of one of the left leg and the right leg of the dental pliers; and pushing the shaft inwardly until the head abuts the end of the second region of the base of the jaw of the one of the left leg and the right leg of the dental pliers.
