Design and Clinical Performance

As a specialized angled root elevator dental instrument, the #62 features an angled shank that provides improved access to posterior regions and difficult angulations where straight instruments may be limited. The 4 mm flat blade tip enables precise engagement beneath the periodontal ligament, facilitating atraumatic elevation and minimizing collateral tissue disruption.

The standard handle incorporates a thumb-rest, allowing the clinician to maintain firm directional control throughout the elevation stroke. This ergonomic feature reduces hand fatigue during extended procedures and improves tactile feedback — a key consideration when working near critical anatomical structures.
