8 1/2" Obwegeser Periosteal Elevator 6mm tip blunt/sharp

Controlled Periosteal Elevation with Versatile Tip Options

The 8 1/2" Obwegeser Periosteal Elevator is designed for lifting and separating periosteal tissue during surgical exposure and related tissue-handling tasks. Its 6mm tip combines blunt and sharp configurations, supporting selection of the working edge appropriate to the step at hand while maintaining a familiar elevator format. The 8.5" overall length provides useful reach within the operative field and supports controlled handling in both General Surgery and Maxillofacial Surgery workflows. As a focused elevator instrument, it helps organize exposure tasks where deliberate tissue elevation and access are required.

Use Cases

• Elevate and separate periosteal tissue during surgical exposure in General Surgery procedures.
• Support periosteal elevation and access tasks in Maxillofacial Surgery workflows.
• Use the blunt tip for controlled tissue elevation where a less pointed working edge is preferred.
• Use the sharp tip for targeted initiation or separation tasks appropriate to the operative step.
• Apply the 8.5" length when additional reach is useful within the surgical field.

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Clean the elevator according to facility protocols and the applicable manufacturer instructions for use.
• Inspect the blunt and sharp tip surfaces before and after use for damage, deformation, or retained soil.
• Handle the sharp tip carefully during cleaning, transport, and storage to reduce the risk of contact injury or instrument damage.
• Store the instrument in a manner that protects the tip and keeps it separated from objects that could cause damage.
