Keep reading to walk through this innovative instrument’s standout features, applications, and more!
Evolution of Dental Elevators
Dental elevators date back to ancient civilizations. Historical evidence shows that Egyptian and Roman veterinary dentists used very basic instruments, like chisels, for tooth loosening and extraction procedures.
Soon, with the passage of time and technological advancement, the basic instruments transformed into dual-ended, specialized elevators (tailored to the small animal dentistry needs) in the 19th and 20th centuries. These instruments offer versatility, allowing veterinarians to perform multiple tasks with a single tool.
However, the instrument’s dual-ended, sharp design poses a risk of back-stabbing to the surgeons, leading to hand injuries.
Plus, the professionals with comparatively smaller hands cannot hold the standard-handle instruments comfortably.
Keeping these challenging factors in mind, GerVetUSA has manufactured safe, single-ended periosteal dental elevators.
Now, let’s discuss the versatility and benefits of our advanced single-ended periosteal elevator.
Introducing GerVetUSA’s Periosteal Dental Elevators
We’ve manufactured this instrument in two variations, including:
• Periosteal Elevator, Single-Ended, Stubby Handle
• Periosteal Elevator, Single-Ended Mini Handle
Both these variations are designed with precision in mind and offer unique benefits to veterinary dental professionals.
Here is how their ergonomic handles make them unique:,
Stubby Handle
The stubby handle comfortably rests in the user’s palm, minimizing the chances of slippage. It enhances tactile sensitivity, allowing veterinarians to apply force with greater precision and feel the underlying structures more accurately. This is crucial for delicate procedures that require careful manipulation of soft tissues. In addition, the shorter stubby handle prevents hand fatigue during extended procedures.
Mini handle
Those with mini handles are designed for a comfortable grasp with smaller hands. The lightweight handle reduces hand fatigue, especially during long procedures. It also plays an important role in maintaining a controlled grip throughout dental procedures.
