Hu-Friedy #25 Palti Periosteal Elevator

The Palti periosteal elevator is a single-ended instrument designed for reflecting and retracting the mucoperiosteum during surgical procedures. Its defining feature is a large, round working blade that provides broad, even contact with tissue, supporting stable flap reflection and retraction without aggressive cutting.

With a working blade measuring approximately 25 mm, the Palti periosteal is well suited for procedures where wide-area tissue control and gentle, distributed force are preferred, including routine oral surgery, periodontal flap procedures, and implant site exposure.

Key Features

• Single-ended design for consistent orientation and controlled handling
• Large, round working blade designed for broad mucoperiosteal reflection and retraction
• 25 mm blade size supports even force distribution across the flap
• Smooth, precision-finished blade surface to promote atraumatic tissue handling
• Rigid construction for steady leverage and reliable tactile feedback

Clinical Advantages

• Effective for holding and retracting larger mucoperiosteal flaps
• Provides stable tissue control during access and visualization
• Reduces point loading by distributing force over a wider surface
• Durable surgical stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance and repeated sterilization
• Integrates easily into oral surgery and periodontal surgical trays

Clinical Takeaway

The Palti PP25 periosteal is a practical choice for clinicians who require a single-ended instrument with a broad working surface for controlled, atraumatic mucoperiosteal reflection and retraction in everyday surgical workflows.
