TOUCHGRIP Ergonomic Design

The TOUCHGRIP handle, developed in collaboration with Dr. Hürzeler and Dr. Zuhr, is specifically engineered to reduce hand fatigue and enhance tactile feedback during delicate root elevation procedures. The carpal handle geometry promotes a natural grip posture, allowing clinicians to apply controlled, precise force when luxating teeth or elevating root fragments. As a professional-grade Dental Elevator, this instrument reflects Helmut Zepf's longstanding commitment to precision German craftsmanship and instrument quality.

Clinical Application

The 3mm beveled right working end is suited for right-side access during root elevation and tooth luxation procedures. The straight, short shaft configuration provides excellent visibility and maneuverability in restricted intraoral spaces. This Dental Elevator is the instrument of choice for general dental practitioners and oral surgery specialists who require both precision and ergonomic comfort in a single, well-balanced instrument.
