ROOT ELEVATORS NES-728

Fig. A
Reaching the distal root of a lower molar cleanly is one of the trickier access problems in posterior extraction work. The socket geometry, the position of the adjacent tooth or retromolar pad, and the angle of the root itself all conspire to limit what a straight elevator can do from the buccal.
The NES-728 is a Cogswell pattern elevator, built specifically to solve that problem. Its curved, offset blade is shaped to seat distal to the root, where it converts handle rotation into directional force against the root surface without the clinician needing to reposition or apply awkward lateral pressure with an ill-fitting instrument.
Clinicians working through a busy surgical day will find the Cogswell pattern appearing among the root elevator they reach for most consistently during lower posterior cases.
The NES-728 performs well in these situations:
Elevating the distal root of mandibular first and second molars after sectioning
Accessing the distal socket when buccal approach instruments lose mechanical advantage
Supporting controlled root mobilization in partially erupted or angled lower molars
Working in tight posterior spaces where handle clearance is limited
The offset blade geometry keeps the handle positioned away from the occlusal plane, which reduces the risk of slipping off the root under load and gives the clinician better control through the full elevation stroke. That positional stability matters in the posterior mandible, where the surrounding bone is dense and root resistance can be significant.
The NES-728 autoclaves reliably and holds its blade geometry through repeated sterilization cycles, making it a dependable choice for any surgical extraction tray. Order the NES-728 today.
