Description
The Freer periosteal elevators (#15 Freer P15 and #16 Freer P16) are classic, double-ended instruments designed for reflecting and retracting the mucoperiosteum following gingival incisions. These periosteals are widely used in oral surgery, periodontal procedures, and implant access where precision, visibility, and control are required, particularly in anterior regions or confined surgical fields.
The Freer design is characterized by a slim profile and flat blade geometry, allowing controlled tissue separation without relying on excessive leverage. Their straightforward, non-aggressive design makes them reliable tools for predictable flap elevation and refinement.
Key Features
Double-ended design with flat, slender blades for controlled mucoperiosteal separation and retraction.
One end is typically straighter and more defined for entry, while the opposing end is blunter for lifting and retraction.
Precision-finished edges support smooth reflection with minimal tissue disruption. Slim instrument profile supports access and visibility in confined surgical areas.
Models Included
P15 (#15 Freer) is a lighter, finer configuration intended for precision work in smaller or more delicate sites. P16 (#16 Freer) offers a slightly longer and more robust profile, providing added reach and control while maintaining the slim Freer geometry.
Clinical Advantages
Well suited for controlled elevation, reflection, and retraction in anterior regions and tight surgical fields.
Useful for flap refinement and tissue management after initial access has been established. Complements broader periosteals used earlier in surgical workflows.
Constructed from surgical stainless steel for durability, corrosion resistance, and repeated sterilization.
Clinical Takeaway
The Freer periosteal family delivers dependable, precision-oriented performance for clinicians who need slim, versatile instruments for everyday periodontal, oral surgical, and implant-adjacent procedures.
