DIMPLE Bubble Thermal Forming Pliers
Product Code: N2119T011
Fix Retention Without Remaking the Appliance 
A clear aligner or retainer that’s lost its snug fit usually means one thing: starting over. The DIMPLE Bubble Thermal Forming Pliers give you a faster path — creating a precise pressure-point “bubble” directly in the thermoplastic to restore retention and tooth engagement, without fabricating a new appliance from scratch.
Precision-machined working tips produce a consistent indentation every time, giving you a repeatable, chairside adjustment for aligners, retainers, bleaching trays and Essix-type appliances in a fraction of the time a remake would take.
Controlled Force, No Cracked Material
Manufactured from premium surgical stainless steel, this instrument delivers the precision and durability clear aligner therapy demands. Its engineered working tips are designed to deform thermoplastic material consistently while minimizing the risk of cracks or material fatigue — so the adjustment holds without compromising the appliance.
