Designed for Precision Extraction

This angled flat root elevator dental instrument features a 3 mm angled flat working end that allows controlled access to the periodontal ligament space, facilitating efficient luxation and elevation of roots and root fragments. The angled blade orientation makes it particularly suitable for posterior or anatomically complex sites where straight-line access is limited.

The standard handle with thumb-rest promotes a secure, fatigue-reducing grip, supporting clinician control throughout the extraction sequence. At 160 mm in overall length, the instrument offers a well-balanced feel suitable for a wide range of clinical applications.
