Clinical Application
Designed for controlled elevation of the periosteum and soft-tissue flaps from bone, this curved Farabeuf periosteal elevator is used to reflect mucoperiosteal and subperiosteal tissues during implant placement, tooth extraction, alveolar surgery, maxillofacial procedures and limited orthopedic exposures. The 15 cm length provides reach for deeper pockets and confined surgical fields while preserving tactile feedback for blunt dissection near delicate structures.
Design & Configuration
The curved working profile follows anatomic contours, enabling access around ridges and convex bone surfaces without excessive retraction of adjacent tissues. The blade geometry converts manual leverage into a controlled lifting motion, letting the surgeon separate periosteum cleanly while minimizing trauma. The handle-to-blade transition is designed to give ergonomic control for precise tip placement and reliable tactile sensation during elevation.
Instrument Specifications

Material & Construction
Constructed from corrosion-resistant surgical-grade stainless steel for durability and repeated sterilization. The metal finish provides a smooth surface for atraumatic tissue contact and resists pitting and corrosion under standard autoclave cycles. Intended for repeated clinical use with appropriate inspection and maintenance between procedures.
Quality & Compliance
Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.
Brand Comparison
Comparable in form and function to equivalent instruments offered by major US medical suppliers.
