Additional Information for Periosteal Elevator-Retractor
Periosteal Elevator-Retractor is a type of instrument used in medical and surgical procedures. It is commonly used in dental and orthopedic surgeries.
A periosteal elevator-retractor is designed to lift and retract the periosteum, which is the thin layer of connective tissue that covers the surface of bones. It is used to separate the periosteum from the underlying bone, allowing access to the surgical site and facilitating the placement of implants or performing other procedures.
The instrument typically consists of a handle and a blade. The blade is thin and curved, allowing it to be inserted under the periosteum and gently lifted or retracted. The handle is designed for a comfortable grip and control during the procedure.
Periosteal elevator-retractors come in various sizes and shapes to accommodate different surgical needs. They are typically made of stainless steel or other durable materials that can be sterilized for reuse.
Overall, periosteal elevator-retractors are essential tools in medical and surgical settings, particularly in dental and orthopedic procedures, where they help in accessing and manipulating the periosteum for optimal surgical outcomes.
