A dental retractor (1) has at least one end to enable it to pull the lip and flap tissues. It includes at least one first body (10) with a jaw (11). To make it even clearer the first body (10) can be used as a gingival retractor or lip retractor when needed It can be used. To achieve this, the jaw (11) has at least one nail (111) It includes. The mentioned nail (111) is essentially a 15-inch radius nail located at the tip of the jaw (11). It is a projection that points towards the second axis. The first body mentioned (10) essentially constitutes the main body. Surgeon operation During this process, it performs the operation by grasping the first body (10). The first body (10) contains at least one curved form (50) at one end. The aforementioned curved The form will start from the body extending along the second axis (II) and be in the direction of the first axis (I). It is extended in this way. That is, essentially the curved form (50) with the second axis (II) and the first axis (I) There is an arc between them. Also, the cross-sectional area decreases as it moves away from the body. In other words... Its width decreases towards the end of the first body (10). 25 Dental retractor (1), at least one second body (20) connected to the first body (10) It includes. The second body (20) also includes at least one curved form (50). The second body (20) the curved form it contains (50), as mentioned for the first body (10), at one end It is located and forms an arc between the second axis (II) and the first axis (I). In addition, 30 The cross-sectional area decreases as the distance from the body increases. The second body mentioned (20) is the first projection (21) located at the end of the curved form (50) or it may have a second protrusion (22). The aforementioned second body (20) is the first In addition to pulling the lip and gum (flap) tissue of the trunk (10), another different tissue 35 It enables withdrawal. To achieve this, the first mentioned above... There is a protrusion (21) or a second protrusion (22). 7 The first projection (21) is located at the end of the second body (20) and extends along the first axis (I). It is a structure.
