Clinical Application
Designed for controlled subperiosteal dissection and reflection, this straight periosteal elevator is used to separate periosteum and soft tissue from bone surfaces to expose cortical margins. Common applications include mucoperiosteal flap elevation in oral and maxillofacial surgery, exposure of bone in ENT and plastic procedures, and general periosteal elevation during small and medium-sized orthopedic or dental cases. The straight blade provides direct access for linear approaches and precise tissue handling in confined workspaces.
Design & Configuration
The straight spatula-shaped blade transfers force directly along the shaft for predictable leverage and tactile feedback during blunt elevation. Its narrow profile minimizes soft-tissue trauma while allowing the surgeon to work close to bone contours. At 15 cm overall length the instrument balances reach into moderate-depth cavities with hand-level control, making it suitable for intraoral access and shallow to mid-depth extraoral exposures where a straight approach is preferred.
Instrument Specifications
- Pattern: Farabeuf periosteal elevator
- Geometry: straight blade (spatula-shaped tip)
- Overall length: 15 cm
- Typical uses: periosteal reflection, mucoperiosteal flap elevation, bone exposure
- Construction: surgical-grade stainless steel, reusable
Material & Construction
Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel with a corrosion-resistant finish to withstand repeated cleaning and sterilization cycles. The blade geometry is ground and polished to provide a smooth edge for atraumatic elevation and easy cleaning between uses. Reusable construction supports cost-effective instrument management for clinics and surgical centers.
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.
