Forceps similar to a pair from 1948 by
CH Dubs shown on page 59 in Bennion's 'Antique Dental Instruments'
and displayed in the Macauley Museum of Dental History S Carolina. A
central telescopic screw extends and is held secure with the blades
allowing the root to be tapped. Sadly all before the advent of the
anaesthetic. This set of forceps is marked M Evans who was an
American instrument maker in the Civil War Period.
