Dental Luxation Elevator with Straight 3mm Blade and Textured Grey Handle
The luxating elevator is a specialised dental instrument designed to sever the periodontal ligament before extraction. Unlike a traditional elevator used for leverage, this tool functions as a fine knife, slicing through the ligament with minimal force to preserve the surrounding alveolar bone.
This model features a straight, 3 mm wide tapering blade forged from surgical stainless steel. The fine tip allows for precise entry into the periodontal space. It is paired with a textured, ergonomic grey handle, ensuring a controlled and secure grip. The instrument is designed for repeated sterilisation cycles in an autoclave or chemiclave.
Primarily used by dentists and oral surgeons for atraumatic extractions. Its precision also lends it to delicate separation tasks in model making, electronics repair, or palaeontology preparation where separating bonded components without damage is critical.
