Gumilyovsky forceps

Gumilyovsky forceps are a medical instrument that is used to remove teeth and other body parts. It was invented by Russian doctor Vladimir Gumilevsky in the early 20th century. The tongs have two handles that are connected by a hinge. The ends of the handles have sharp teeth that allow you to grab and remove teeth or other body parts.

Gumilyovsky forceps were very popular in Russia at the beginning of the 20th century, but over time they were replaced by more modern tools. However, they are still used in some health care settings, especially in rural areas where modern treatments are not available.

The use of Gumilevsky forceps has its advantages and disadvantages. On the one hand, they allow you to quickly and effectively remove teeth, which can be useful in emergency situations. On the other hand, using forceps may damage surrounding tissue and cause bleeding. In addition, the use of forceps is not always possible due to the anatomical characteristics of the patient.

Overall, Gumilyovsky forceps are a useful tool for tooth extraction, but their use should be limited and only performed by experienced professionals.
