DETAILS AND CARE

A double-ended Prichard periosteal elevator used to lift, reflect and hold back the mucoperiosteum after the gingival tissue has been incised, exposing the underlying bone during periodontal and oral surgery.

  • Broad, flat, round-ended blade for reflecting and retracting wider areas of tissue
  • Narrow, round-ended, slightly concave spoon-shaped tip for starting the separation of tissue from bone
  • Round handle with grooved grip rings
  • Plain stainless steel, fully autoclavable

FAQs

What is a Prichard periosteal elevator used for?

It is used to lift the mucoperiosteum away from the bone once the gum has been incised, then to hold the reflected flap back so the bone underneath stays in view during periodontal and other oral surgical procedures.

Why does it have two different ends?

The narrow end is used to begin separating the tissue from the bone, while the broad flat end reflects and holds back the larger area of the flap.

What material is this instrument made from?

It is made from plain stainless steel with no coating, and it can be sterilised in an autoclave along with your other surgical instruments.
