Elevators – Medic Instrument’s Best-Selling Dental Tools
Introduction
Dental procedures require efficiency, accuracy, and the right set of instruments. Among the most essential tools in dentistry, elevators play a crucial role in tooth extractions. These instruments help loosen teeth from their sockets, making the extraction process smoother and less traumatic for both the dentist and the patient.
At Medic Instrument, we take pride in manufacturing high-quality elevators designed for superior performance and durability. Our best-selling dental elevators are trusted by professionals worldwide, ensuring reliability in every procedure. In this blog, we will explore the importance of elevator, their types, benefits, and why Medic Instrument’s elevator stand out in the market.
What Are Dental Elevators?
Dental elevators are specialized instruments used in oral surgeries and extractions to loosen teeth from the periodontal ligament before extraction. By doing so, they minimize the force required by forceps, reducing trauma to surrounding tissues.
How Elevators Work
- The thin blade of the elevator is inserted into the periodontal ligament space.
- The instrument is then rotated or levered to separate the tooth from the socket.
- This loosens the tooth, making the extraction easier and less painful.
Elevators are particularly useful for difficult extractions, such as impacted teeth, root fragments, or broken teeth.
Types of Elevators Offered by Medic Instrument
At Medic Instrument, we provide a variety of elevators to meet the needs of dental professionals. Our best-selling models include:
1. Straight Elevators
These are the most commonly used elevators. They feature a straight handle and blade, making them ideal for general tooth extractions. They work by applying force along the long axis of the tooth.
2. Cryer (Triangular)
These elevator have sharp, triangular tips and are used for removing broken roots. They work by engaging the remaining root and applying force in a levering motion.
3. Root Elevators
Designed for delicate extractions, these elevator help remove root fragments without causing excessive trauma to surrounding tissues. They come in different angulations for better access.
4. Periosteal Elevators
Although not used for direct tooth removal, periosteal elevators are essential for lifting and retracting soft tissues before extractions or implant procedures.

How to Use Dental Elevators Properly
To maximize the efficiency of your elevator and ensure patient safety, follow these steps: Choose the Right Elevator
Select an elevator that best fits the tooth’s position and condition. For example, use luxating elevator for atraumatic extractions and Cryer elevators for broken roots.
Insert the Elevator Correctly
Place the elevator’s blade into the periodontal ligament space with gentle pressure. Avoid excessive force to prevent damage to surrounding tissues.
Apply Controlled Force
Use a slow and steady levering motion to loosen the tooth. Do not rush the process, as it may cause unnecessary trauma.
Remove the Tooth Gently
Once the tooth is sufficiently loosened, use forceps to complete the extraction with minimal resistance.
Sterilize the Instrument
After each procedure, properly clean and sterilize the elevator to maintain hygiene and prolong their lifespan.
