A dental forceps that include an elongated handle and a pair of tooth engaging members or jaws extending out of the one end of the handle and a post located in the handle with a disc at the top with a ball at the other end of the post. The post ball end inserts into the post ball holder to provide a stable support so that the dentist has leverage to extract the tooth straight out. The post disc and post ball provide the forceps with side-to-side and back-and-forth movement, thus allowing the forceps to align to the growth angle of the tooth to be extracted.
