ROOT ELEVATORS NES-1042

5 MM
A 5mm curved tip is a serious commitment, and the NES-1042 delivers exactly that for cases where nothing smaller will do the job. Gold coating adds long-term durability to a blade this size, which matters given the load a wide curved elevator handles during heavier extractions.
This is the kind of instrument reserved for firmly anchored molars or roots with pronounced curvature and substantial mass. The curve lets the tip track along the root’s natural path even at this width, avoiding the straight-line force that could otherwise strain surrounding bone. It’s not an everyday tool for most cases, but when a tooth truly resists, having this option on hand saves time and frustration.
The 5mm curved profile provides maximum leverage while still following root curvature.
Gold coating protects the blade through the repeated stress that wider tips typically encounter.
The instrument autoclaves cleanly, staying compatible with standard sterilization cycles.
Its size makes it best suited to posterior teeth with dense or curved root structure.
Not every kit needs this size, but oral surgery practices that regularly face difficult extractions benefit from having heavier dental root elevators like this in reach. The NES-1042 covers that upper end of the range well.
