Elevators

Dental Elevators for Extraction, Root Removal, and Surgical Access

Dental elevators are essential surgical instruments used to loosen teeth, mobilize roots, elevate retained fragments, and support controlled extraction procedures. Designed to assist with luxation, leverage, and access, elevators help clinicians separate periodontal ligament fibers, expand the socket, and prepare teeth or root tips for atraumatic removal.

Common clinical applications include:

• Tooth elevation before forceps extraction
• Root tip and fractured root removal
• Socket expansion and controlled luxation
• Surgical extraction and oral surgery procedures
• Access support in difficult extraction cases

The Elevators category includes a wide range of patterns and working-end designs, including Straight, Universal, Seldin, Heidbrink, Cryer, Miller, Apexo, Flohr, Bernard, Luxating, Lux-Tome, specialty, modified, and premium elevator options. These instruments support different extraction techniques, access angles, root anatomy, and clinician preferences.
