Medical Root Elevator with Concave Tip

The instrument shown in image_3c261a.png is a straight root elevator, commonly used in dental surgery to facilitate tooth extractions. It features a robust, ergonomic white handle designed for a secure palm grip, allowing the practitioner to apply controlled pressure. The stainless steel shaft terminates in a concave blade, magnified in inset “B,” which is designed to be inserted into the periodontal space to luxate the tooth by severing the ligament and expanding the alveolar socket.
