Description
The #3 / 9A periosteal elevator is a double-ended instrument that combines two well-established designs into a single, versatile tool for controlled mucoperiosteal reflection and retraction. One end features the spatula-style Prichard #3 blade, while the opposite end incorporates a 9A-style periosteal with a central suturing hole, allowing the clinician to move efficiently from flap elevation to stabilization and closure.
This combination is widely used in periodontal surgery and is increasingly favored in implant and regenerative procedures where precise access, soft-tissue control, and suturing assistance are required.
Key Features
• Double-ended configuration combining Prichard #3 and 9A-style periosteal designs • Prichard #3 spatula-style blade for broad, controlled mucoperiosteal reflection • Flat blade geometry supports stable flap elevation and tissue retraction • 9A-style periosteal end with central hole to assist with suturing and soft-tissue manipulation • Rounded, non-aggressive edges designed for controlled separation rather than cutting • Precision-finished stainless steel for smooth tissue handling and reliable tactile feedback
Clinical Advantages
• Allows seamless transition between flap reflection and suturing without instrument changes • Supports broad flap elevation as well as precise manipulation in interproximal areas • Well suited for periodontal flap procedures, implant-adjacent surgery, and regenerative workflows • Central hole on the 9A end provides added utility during flap stabilization and closure • Durable surgical stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance and repeated sterilization
Clinical Takeaway
The #3 / 9A periosteal is a practical, multifunctional instrument for clinicians who value the broad reflection capability of a Prichard #3 combined with the added suturing utility of a 9A-style periosteal. It is particularly useful in procedures where efficient tissue handling and closure are part of the same workflow.
