Pennington periosteal elevator d/e 21cm

Clinical Application

A Pennington periosteal elevator is used to elevate and reflect periosteum and other soft tissues from bone surfaces to create exposure during dissection. Its geometry is well suited for controlled lifting and blunt dissection around delicate structures in procedures such as septoplasty, rhinoplasty, sinus surgery, oral and maxillofacial surgery, dental surgery and select orthopedic or craniofacial exposures where precise tissue elevation is required.

Design & Configuration

The double-ended format provides opposing working tips or angles without changing instruments, improving efficiency in confined surgical fields. The Pennington-style triangular elevator tip offers a broad, tapered face that spreads force over tissue for atraumatic elevation while permitting precise engagement of periosteum along bone contours. The 21 cm overall length gives extended reach into deeper cavities while maintaining tactile control at the handle.
