(d) Upper Bicuspids misplaced, as shown in [fig. 41], can be removed with forceps, as shown in figs. 18 and 22, the blades being applied on the anterior and posterior aspects of the tooth. Force should be applied in a backward and forward direction, the movements being repeated and persevered with until the tooth is loosened in its socket.
