Description
The 9H Howard periosteal elevator is a classic, general-purpose instrument intended for reflecting and retracting the mucoperiosteum following gingival incisions. It is commonly used in routine oral surgery, periodontal flap procedures, and basic implant site access where predictable handling and uncomplicated performance are preferred.
The Howard design focuses on controlled tissue reflection using familiar geometry, making it a dependable choice for everyday surgical workflows rather than specialized or technique-driven applications.
Key Features
• Double-ended configuration with angled, bi-beveled blades to support controlled tissue reflection and separation • Blade geometry designed for steady entry and smooth periosteal elevation rather than aggressive cutting • Precision-finished edges to promote clean mucoperiosteal reflection with minimal tissue disruption • Available with a large knurled #522 octagon handle for secure grip and control • Optional #6 Satin Steel handle for clinicians who prefer a slimmer profile and balanced feel
Clinical Advantages
• Reliable for initial flap reflection, access extension, and routine periosteal separation • Consistent control across varying tissue conditions • Durable surgical stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance and repeated sterilization • Integrates easily into mixed surgical trays alongside more specialized periosteals
Clinical Takeaway
The 9H Howard periosteal is a straightforward, time-tested instrument for clinicians who want familiar handling and predictable flap management in everyday periodontal, oral surgical, and implant-adjacent procedures.
