Description:

Ideally used for retracting & elevating mucoperiosteum during minor or major oral surgery Periosteal Elevators are mainly used to lift full thickness soft tissue flaps.
Double Ended Instrument with one rounded , blunted end & other end is sharp pointed.
Blunt end is Spoon – Shaped.
Spoon shaped End is used to raise gingival tissue at cervical region which is to be detached for the extraction of the tooth.
Reflects the mucoperiosteum away from the bone to prevent it being crushed – as bone is used as fulcrum.
Sharp Pointed End is used to reflect dental papillae.
Three ways to elevate / reflect soft tissues are :
Pointed end is used in prying motion for elevation of flap. Usually use for elevation of dental papilla between teeth.
ush Stroke – Broad end is pushed under flap to separate periosteum from bone.
Pull Stroke – tends to tear tissue if not used carefully.

Direction to Use:

An elevator should be positioned such that the ventral surface of the tip contacts a hard point(s) on the tooth particle being extracted, while the dorsal surface of the elevator working end
contacts a hard intra-oral point(s), such that if a force of a specific magnitude and direction is applied to the tooth particle at the ventral contact point of the elevator tip,
the tooth particle will move progressively
