The
winged edge of the elevator is designed to expand the alveolus (tooth socket) by expanding it as the instrument is ‘rocked’ in the periodontal ligament space. The tip is moved down the tooth root
in a rolling fashion. Widening the alveolus and moving gently down the tooth root will reduce the risk of fracturing the tooth and root during extraction. The Six sizes make them ideal for cats
to large dogs.
