Description
The #9 Molt periosteal elevator is one of the most widely used general-purpose periosteals in dentistry. This double-ended instrument is designed for reflecting and retracting the mucoperiosteum following gingival incisions and is commonly used in routine oral surgery, periodontal flap procedures, and basic implant site access.
The Molt 9 design prioritizes controlled flap elevation through balanced leverage rather than aggressive cutting, making it a dependable, familiar tool across a broad range of surgical workflows.
Key Features
• Double-ended design with working ends measuring approximately 4.3 mm and 8.4 mm • Broader, rounded blade for general flap elevation and tissue retraction • Narrower, more pointed blade for precise entry, interproximal separation, and assistance with periodontal ligament fiber release • Precision-finished edges to support smooth tissue reflection with minimal disruption • Standard large knurled hexagon/octagon (#522) handle for secure grip and control • Black Line version (P9X) with matte, performance-engineered coating to reduce glare and improve visibility under surgical lighting
Clinical Advantages
• Versatile for initial flap reflection, periosteal separation, and routine surgical tasks • Balanced rigidity and tactile feedback across varying tissue conditions • Durable surgical stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance and repeated sterilization • Serves as a foundational periosteal in mixed trays, complementing more specialized designs
Clinical Takeaway
The #9 Molt periosteal remains a practical, time-tested instrument for clinicians seeking consistent, predictable mucoperiosteal flap management in everyday periodontal, oral surgical, and implant-adjacent procedures.
