Description
The Hoexter #4 periosteal elevator is a dual-ended instrument designed for reflecting and retracting the mucoperiosteum, combining two distinctly shaped working ends to support different stages of flap management.
One end features a sharper, angled blade measuring approximately 5.7 mm, intended for initial periosteal incision and controlled separation of the mucoperiosteum from bone. This angled edge allows precise entry and effective engagement when beginning flap reflection.
The opposite end has a broader, rounded blade measuring approximately 6.9 mm, designed for deflecting, lifting, and retracting tissue once the flap has been elevated. Its smooth contour distributes force evenly, supporting atraumatic retraction and stable tissue control.
This complementary design allows clinicians to progress from initial elevation to controlled retraction without switching instruments, improving efficiency during routine oral surgery, periodontal procedures, and implant access.
Key features
Designed for reflecting and retracting the mucoperiosteum
5.7 mm angled edge for controlled initial elevation
6.9 mm rounded blade for deflection and retraction
Dual-ended design for efficient workflow
Suitable for oral surgery, periodontal surgery, and implant procedures
Manufactured from surgical stainless steel to Hu-Friedy standards, the Hoexter #4 periosteal elevator is durable, corrosion resistant, and fully autoclavable.
Clinical takeaway: The Hoexter #4 is a practical, purpose-driven periosteal that combines a cutting-angle entry end with a rounded retraction end, making it well suited for predictable mucoperiosteal flap management in everyday surgical cases.
