Dental Elevators
Dental elevators are essential surgical tools widely used in tooth extractions and oral surgeries. These instruments are specially designed to loosen teeth from the periodontal ligament and alveolar bone, making extraction easier and less traumatic. Dental elevators come in various shapes and sizes, each designed for specific functions, such as luxating, elevating, and root tip retrieval.
At Davicon Surgical, we offer a wide range of high-quality stainless steel dental elevators that meet clinical demands with precision and durability. Whether you’re performing a simple extraction or a complex surgical procedure, our elevators ensure better access, reduced tissue damage, and improved control.
Types of Dental Elevators Available:
Straight Elevators: Used for general tooth elevation and luxation, especially in anterior regions.
Cryers Elevators: Ideal for removing broken root tips or teeth in the posterior region.
Root Tip Elevators: Designed for precise removal of small, fractured root tips.
Winter Elevators: Perfect for exerting lateral force to loosen the tooth from the socket.
Heidbrink Elevators: Slim and fine-tipped, these are excellent for root tip removal and delicate areas.
Why Use Dental Elevators?
Dental elevators help reduce excessive force during extraction, minimizing trauma to the surrounding bone and tissues. They are particularly useful when forceps alone are not sufficient to remove a tooth, such as in cases of decayed, broken, or impacted teeth.
Our dental elevators feature ergonomic handles, sharp working ends, and anti-slip grips to provide comfort and precision for dental professionals. All instruments are autoclavable and made from surgical-grade stainless steel for long-term use.
