Apical Elevator – Left is a dental elevator / luxator designed for dental surgery, education, and laboratory applications where appropriate.
Key Details:
• Material: Surgical-grade stainless steel.
• Application: Left-angled apical root elevation during extractions, loosening the tooth from gingiva and surrounding tissues while helping reduce trauma to adjacent teeth and soft tissue.
• Working End: Apical tip geometry supports precise root-fragment retrieval.
• Handle/Grip: Balanced dental-elevator handle for controlled grip and leverage.
• Key Features: Controlled leverage and precise insertion; designed to assist atraumatic extraction and root-fragment retrieval; corrosion-resistant construction for professional dental use; polished finish supports easy cleaning and oxidation resistance.
The instrument is reusable and designed to withstand a large number of autoclave sterilization cycles when properly maintained.
Recommended Sterilization Procedure:
1. Thoroughly clean the instrument before sterilization. Do not use metal brushes, as they may damage the instrument’s surface.
2. Immerse the instrument in an appropriate sterilizing solution according to the manufacturer’s instructions. After soaking, rinse it thoroughly with running water and dry it completely.
