Sklar Barry Root Elevator, 320 L T-Bar Handle
A dental root elevator, model 320 L with a T-bar handle, used to luxate and lift a tooth root free from its socket during extraction.
The Sklar Barry Root Elevator is a dental extraction instrument, offered here as model 320 L with a T-bar handle, used to luxate and lift a tooth root free from its socket during a dental extraction. The T-bar handle gives the dentist or oral surgeon a strong, stable grip that allows greater rotational and lifting force to be applied compared with a straight handle, which is useful when a root is firmly held by surrounding bone and periodontal ligament.
This listing covers four model and hand combinations, models 320 through 323 in left and right handed versions, letting the practitioner choose the elevator best suited to the specific tooth position and their own working angle during the extraction. Root elevators of this kind are a routine part of general dental and oral surgery extraction kits, used by general dentists and oral and maxillofacial surgeons in everyday practice.
As a durable hand instrument, it is cleaned and sterilized between patients along with the rest of the extraction tray.
