About Dr. Thomas Wietzorke

Dr. Thomas Wietzorke is the clinician whose specifications Helmut Zepf follows for the Easy Lifter: the display is titled "Specifications from Dr. Wietzorke", and each single instrument is the "Easy Lifter By Dr. Wietzorke".

Key Benefits

  • Rounded tip: inserted between the prosthetic crown and the underlying structure with minimal risk of soft tissue injury.
  • Ergonomic handle: supports controlled, repeatable lifting motions; the single lifters come in ten bIONIK handle colors.
  • Alternating-side technique: lifting on alternating sides helps release the prosthesis evenly instead of jamming on one side.
  • Made in Germany: manufactured by Helmut Zepf.

Clinical Use

The lifter is placed between the outer and inner telescope components and used with controlled, alternating lifting motions to loosen the connection and remove the prosthesis, including for patients who have difficulty removing their prosthesis themselves.

Care and Reconditioning

Clean and reprocess the lifters according to the manufacturer's instructions and your practice protocol. Our Dental Instrument Reprocessing & Sterilization Guide covers the general workflow for Helmut Zepf hand instruments.
