Stainless Steel Root Elevator 5B Key benefits Precise root engagement: Blade geometry of the 5B design provides controlled elevation of root fragments and luxation of teeth where required. Durable material: quality stainless steel construction resists corrosion and maintains edge integrity through repeated use. Comfortable handling: Balanced handle profile improves grip and tactile feedback for steady manipulation during procedures. Easy to maintain: Smooth surfaces allow straightforward cleaning and standard sterilization according to clinic protocols. What this instrument does Designed to assist in the elevation and loosening of roots and root fragments during dental extractions. Provides leverage and access in confined areas where direct forceps use is limited. Works alongside extraction forceps and surgical elevators as part of routine oral surgery and operative dentistry sets. Key features and specifications Model: 5B root elevator Material: Surgical grade stainless steel Function: Root elevation and luxation assistance Compatibility: Intended for use with common dental extraction and surgical instrument kits Design elements: Narrow blade profile for accessing periodontal sockets and fractured root remnants; ergonomically shaped handle for controlled force application Practical use scenarios Removal of a fractured root tip embedded near the socket where direct forceps access is restricted. Luxation of a tooth to expand the socket before applying forceps during routine extractions. Working in posterior regions to engage and elevate retained root fragments prior to curettage. Care and handling Inspect instrument before each use for cleanliness and integrity. Clean according to clinic protocols and process through standard sterilization methods compatible with stainless steel instruments. Store in instrument trays or holders to protect the blade and maintain readiness. Suitable for general dental and oral surgery applications where precise root elevation and controlled leverage are required.
