ROOT ELEVATORS NES-982

12RX
The NES-982 is a single‑ended root elevator patterned after the classic “98” design, intended for controlled luxation of upper and lower third molars. Its slim blade and strong stainless steel construction make it particularly effective for engaging deep root surfaces and separating periodontal ligament fibers in posterior extractions.
This instrument belongs to the group of dental root elevators used when conventional forceps cannot achieve purchase or when fractured root fragments remain. The NES-982 is built with a narrow working end that can be seated cleanly into the ligament space, allowing gradual socket expansion while minimizing trauma to surrounding bone.
Blade design: The Size 98 blade is tapered and strong, ideal for elevating retained roots in posterior molars.
Working end: Single‑ended design provides focused leverage without excess bulk.
Handle style: Round, textured handle offers tactile feedback and stable control during luxation.
Material: German stainless steel resists corrosion and maintains integrity through repeated autoclave cycles.
Clinical use: Commonly applied in upper and lower third molar extractions, fractured root removal, and atraumatic elevation where bone preservation is critical.
In practice, the NES-982 helps clinicians apply controlled pressure to separate ligament fibers and mobilize roots in difficult posterior cases. Its balanced design ensures predictable handling across repeated procedures, making it a dependable instrument for oral surgery workflows.
