Dental Root Elevator Fig 6 Loos

Dental Root Elevator

A dental root elevator is a tool used by dentists and oral surgeons to aid in the extraction of teeth. It is designed to loosen a tooth from the periodontal ligament and surrounding alveolar bone, making it easier to extract.
Our Root Elevators are made with Surgical Grade Material which makes them long lasting.

Fig 6 Loos Elevator

It is designed to aid in loosening the tooth from the surrounding periodontal ligament and bone, making extraction easier and less traumatic.

• Tooth Luxation:
  • The Fig 6 Loos elevator is primarily used to luxate (loosen) teeth before extraction. By inserting the blade between the tooth and bone and using a rocking motion, it helps break the periodontal ligament and expand the socket, making the tooth easier to extract.
• Root Tip Removal:
  • It is particularly useful for removing root tips and fragments that remain after a tooth has been partially extracted or if the tooth has fractured. The curved blade helps reach and dislodge these small, hard-to-access pieces.
• Sectioned Tooth Removal:
  • In some cases, a tooth may need to be sectioned or split for removal (e.g., multirooted teeth). The Fig 6 Loos elevator can be used to elevate the individual sections of the tooth.
