A dental torque wrench is a specialized hand-held tool designed to apply precise rotational force during dental procedures. Clinically, it tightens, loosens, or removes components like dental implants or surgical instruments within the oral cavity, often used in guided surgery or implant placement.
These devices are typically reusable and made from metals or polymers, often featuring a calibrated scale and ratchet function. Regulation and classification vary by jurisdiction, and they are not classified as screwdrivers, requiring adherence to dental tool standards.
