King Saud University has received a new patent from the US Patent and trademark office for a new multi-bladed dental tool inby a member of KSU’s faculty. KSU recieved that patent last month for the tool invented by Dr. Fahad Ibrahim Al-Fatiny. As for the importance of this invention, Khalid Al-Saleh said that straight single-blade teeth levers are considered some of the most effective tools to use for uprooting teeth in terms of wedging and lifting movements. But most other dental extraction tools only touch the tooth surface at one point, which can means tools can slip and move while a dentist is trying to manipulate a tooth and can cause damage to the mouth and other teeth, or even breaks which require surgery.
