About PDL Luxating Elevator Set, 7 Pieces
Luxating elevators have thin, sharp blades that slide down the periodontal ligament (PDL) between tooth and bone and cut it. Loosening a tooth this way relies on cutting the ligament rather than heavy leverage. This set gives you seven luxating elevators with different tip profiles in one cassette.
What is in the set
- Seven single-ended luxating elevators, each on its own handle.
- Thin blue tips in straight and angled profiles for front and back teeth.
- Colour-coded handle ends so each instrument is quick to identify.
- A matching metal cassette that holds all seven.
The cassette is included in addition to the seven instruments.
Luxating elevator or conventional elevator?
A luxating elevator cuts the ligament with a thin blade and is used with gentle, controlled pressure. It is not designed for heavy levering. For leverage, use a straight elevator or one of our root elevators. Our elevator, luxator and periotome guide explains the differences.
Ordering

Care
The thin tips are easily damaged. Keep the instruments in the cassette, check the tips before use and follow the supplied processing instructions and your facility's validated protocol.
