Description
GDC Lindo Levian Root Elevators:
Elevators strongly advocate for the significance of preserving tissue during extractions. Particularly in implantology, preserving tissue can prevent the need for complicated bone augmentation procedures. Root elevators facilitate the comfortable and straightforward extraction of all teeth while preserving the surrounding tissue. This is achieved through:
Pointed working tips
Slim working tips
User-friendly design
Root elevators operate based on the following principles:
Lever Principle
Wheel Principle
Wheel & Axle Principle
They function as a lever to assist in the removal of a tooth or remaining roots. The instrument is inserted between the gums and the tooth surface, helping to loosen the tissue encasing the tooth. By pulling the root elevator straight downward, the barb effect occurs, allowing the root to be extracted without requiring leverage.
