Ring removal is indicated in a number of clinical
circumstances to manage or prevent tourniquet effect of the
digit. A ring made from hardened metal may defy commonly

difficulty in removing a ring of hardened metal composition
using a dental drill. We believed the unusual circumstances
of this case is likely to be repeated in some other clinical practice and this instrument is an appropriate option to consider in such cases.
