ROOT ELEVATORS NES-898

3 MM
The NES-898 is a 3 mm Luxating Elevator built to periotome specifications, a thinner and more refined variation of the standard luxator designed specifically for cases where preserving the socket wall is the top priority. Among our dental root elevators, this instrument sits at the precision end of the luxating category, with a blade thin enough to work through periodontal ligament fibers with minimal disruption to the surrounding bone.
The core mechanism is the same slicing action found in other luxating designs, but the thinner profile changes what the instrument is best suited for. Rather than generating leverage or wedging force, the blade is worked gently along the root surface, severing ligament attachment as it advances. This keeps the extraction process closer to a controlled separation than a mechanical removal, which matters most when the surrounding bone needs to remain intact for later restorative work.
This instrument tends to see the most use in situations such as:
Extractions in the aesthetic zone ahead of immediate implant placement
Cases where socket wall preservation is a stated treatment goal
Single rooted teeth where a slow, controlled separation is preferable to leverage
Complementing a broader luxator set for cases needing the thinnest available blade
Because the technique relies on patience and a light touch rather than force, clinicians new to this style benefit from working slowly and letting the blade do the cutting rather than pushing against resistance. For implant focused practices, the NES-898 fills a specific role that standard elevators aren’t built to handle.
