Design and Clinical Application
The Heidbrink root tip elevator curved features a curved working end that allows improved access to posterior regions and root apices that are difficult to reach with straight instruments. The 2.5 mm working tip provides precise engagement with root structures, minimizing trauma to adjacent bone and soft tissue. The Flohr handle offers a secure, ergonomic grip that supports controlled force application throughout the procedure.
