Description
Hu-Friedy E38 and E39 Elevators are surgical elevators used to loosen teeth or root fragments from the periodontal ligament and ease extraction. They are designed as mirror-image opposites and are recommended for use as a paired set to improve access and ergonomics during luxation.
Both instruments feature a serrated, long and narrow concave working area with parallel walls and a flat working edge rather than a pointed tip, allowing controlled engagement along the root surface.
Clinical use
Loosening teeth from the periodontal ligament
Controlled luxation prior to forceps application
Elevation of teeth or root fragments requiring broad, stable contact
Design overview
The E38 and E39 are designed to provide secure engagement along the root surface without point loading. The serrated, parallel-wall concave working area increases control, while the flat edge supports even force distribution during luxation. Mirror-image geometry allows efficient alternating access from opposite directions.
Available patterns
E38 Elevator Serrated elevator with a long, narrow concave working area and flat edge, designed for controlled luxation from one approach angle.
E39 Elevator Mirror-image counterpart to the E38, providing the opposite engagement orientation for paired use.
Used together, the E38 and E39 improve access, reduce hand repositioning, and support smoother extraction progression.
Key features
Serrated concave working areas with parallel walls
Flat working edge for controlled engagement
Mirror-image E38 and E39 pair
Designed to loosen teeth from the periodontal ligament
Surgical-grade stainless steel construction
