ROOT ELEVATORS NES-899

4 MM
Periotomes occupy a specific niche within extraction instrumentation, built for cases where preserving the socket matters as much as removing the tooth. The NES-899 combines a luxating blade profile with the fine, tapered geometry associated with periotome design, making it suited to atraumatic extraction protocols where bone preservation supports later implant placement. Among the dental root elevators in this collection, this dual purpose instrument is often the one selected when the treatment plan already anticipates a graft or implant.
The blade is thin enough to slide along the root surface within the periodontal ligament space, expanding that space gradually rather than displacing bone to create room. A 4 mm tip keeps the working end narrow enough for careful, incremental advancement, which matters when the surgical goal includes maintaining the buccal plate intact.
This pattern is typically chosen for:
Extractions preceding immediate or delayed implant placement
Cases where socket preservation is part of the treatment plan
Anterior teeth where the buccal plate is thin and easily compromised
Situations calling for gradual ligament expansion over rapid luxation
Sequential use alongside a standard elevator once initial space is created
The instrument is manufactured from reusable surgical steel and finished for repeated autoclave cycles, consistent with standard sterilization protocols. For practices building extraction into a broader implant workflow, having a dedicated periotome pattern on hand supports that continuity of care.
