🦷 Precision in Motion: The Periosteal Elevator for Maxillofacial Surgery

Maxillofacial surgery demands a unique blend of precision, control, and tissue sensitivity. Among the essential tools in this field, the periosteal elevator stands out as a cornerstone instrument—used to gently reflect and lift the periosteum from the underlying bone. Whether you're performing implant placement, bone grafting, or trauma repair, a well-designed periosteal elevator can dramatically improve surgical outcomes.

Osung USA, a leader in high-quality dental instrumentation, offers periosteal elevators engineered to meet the rigorous demands of modern oral and maxillofacial surgery.

🔍 What Is a Periosteal Elevator?

A periosteal elevator is a surgical hand instrument designed to separate the periosteum—a dense, fibrous membrane that covers bone—from the bone surface. This step is critical in exposing the surgical site while minimizing trauma to surrounding soft tissues.

🛠️ Clinical Applications

Periosteal elevators are indispensable in a wide range of procedures:

• Tooth Extractions: Especially for impacted teeth, where gentle separation of gingiva and periosteum is needed.
• Implantology: Creating mucoperiosteal flaps for precise implant placement and osseointegration.
• Bone Grafting: Preparing the recipient site and covering graft material.
• Periodontal Surgery: Facilitating flap surgeries for root planing and regenerative procedures.
• Cyst and Tumor Removal: Accessing bone lesions while preserving soft tissue.
• Trauma Management: Reflecting tissues to address fractures of the maxilla or mandible.
