Alexander Periosteal Elevators
Constructed of surgical-grade German stainless steel, our Alexander Periosteal Elevators are designed to provide effective and atraumatic periosteal elevation during a wide range of orthopedic and oral surgical procedures. Named after Dr. W. B. Alexander, a pioneer in surgical instrumentation, these elevators are essential tools for preparing surgical sites and improving surgical access.
- Multiple Sizes: Available in 16 cm (6 1/4") and 20 cm (8") lengths to accommodate different surgical approaches and patient anatomies.
- Sharp, Curved Blades: Designed to effectively elevate periosteum from bone while minimizing tissue trauma.
- Integrated Tamping End: Designed for gentle bone tamping and fragment positioning, enhancing surgical efficiency by combining elevation and tamping in one instrument.
Orthopedic Surgery Applications:
- Essential for periosteal elevation during orthopedic procedures, such as fracture reduction, open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF), and joint replacement surgeries.
- Used to prepare bone surfaces for implant placement and bone grafting procedures.
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery:
- Utilized in oral and maxillofacial surgery for periosteal elevation and bone preparation during various procedures, including dental implant placement and bone grafting.
Podiatric Surgery
- Employed in podiatric surgery for procedures involving bone manipulation and soft tissue dissection.
