Matson Periosteal Elevator 22cm

Clinical Application

Designed for controlled subperiosteal dissection, this Matson-style periosteal elevator is used to elevate and reflect periosteum and soft tissues away from bone. Common applications include exposure of bony surfaces during orthopedic procedures, oral and maxillofacial surgery, ENT procedures, trauma fixation, and implant site preparation. The 22 cm length gives extended reach for deeper fields while allowing tactile control during sharp or blunt elevation.

Design & Configuration

The instrument features a rigid shaft with a tapered working end that permits precise placement beneath the periosteum. The Matson pattern balances a low-profile blade for sliding in tight planes with sufficient edge geometry to separate soft tissue from cortex without excessive tearing. The overall length provides leverage and reach for deeper dissections while a hand-friendly shaft supports controlled manipulation and directional force during use.
