Product Name: Heidbrink Root Elevators Set.

Usage: Heidbrink root elevators are specialized dental instruments used to extract tooth roots and fragments that may break off during a tooth extraction procedure. They are used to lever and dislodge the root from the surrounding alveolar bone and periodontal ligament, which firmly anchors the tooth. The elevator’s blade is placed between the root and the bone, and the handle’s rotation generates force to displace the root from its socket.

How Heidbrink Root Elevators Work

1. Insertion:
The curved blade of the elevator is carefully inserted into the space between the tooth or root and the alveolar bone.
2. Fulcrum:
The alveolar bone acts as a fulcrum.
3. Leverage:
By rotating the handle around its long axis, the blade generates force to lift and displace the tooth root out of its socket.
4. Support:
The operator’s index finger is often extended along the blade to provide support and control, preventing the instrument from slipping and causing damage.

Key Features and Uses

Extraction of Root Tips:
They are especially effective at removing broken root tips that are difficult to reach.
Loosening the Tooth:
The primary function is to loosen the periodontal ligament and surrounding tissues, easing the extraction process.
Multiple Angles:
Heidbrink elevators are available in straight, left, and right-angled versions to allow for proper access and engagement with different roots.
Minimize Trauma:
The design aims to apply controlled force to the root, minimizing trauma to adjacent hard tissues and the alveolar bone.

Components of a Dental Elevator

Handle: A large, comfortable handle allows the dentist to grip and apply controlled force.
Shank: The strong connection between the handle and the working end.
Blade: The tip of the instrument, which is designed to fit into tight spaces and apply leverage. The shape and size of the blade vary depending on the type of tooth and the specific extraction situation.
