Description
Hu-Friedy Hoexter Luxating Elevators are surgical luxators designed to loosen teeth from the periodontal ligament while preserving the buccal and lingual bone during extraction. Developed around the mesial/distal extraction philosophy articulated by Dr. David Hoexter, these instruments are intended to protect the osseous ridge and support predictable implant outcomes.
Rather than luxating toward the thinner buccal plate, Hoexter elevators are used in the mesial or distal plane, reducing traumatic or ischemic bone loss and helping maintain ridge architecture for bone regeneration and future implant placement.
Clinical use
Atraumatic tooth extractions with ridge preservation
Luxation in the mesial or distal plane
Extractions planned for immediate or delayed implant placement
Design overview
Hoexter luxating elevators feature thin, sharp working ends optimized for controlled periodontal ligament severing rather than heavy levering. Left and right configurations allow precise adaptation to mesial or distal root surfaces while maintaining tactile control.
Available configurations
Mesial Hoexter Luxating Elevators Available in 3 mm and 5 mm widths, each offered in left and right patterns for controlled mesial luxation.
Distal Hoexter Luxating Elevators Available in 3 mm and 5 mm widths, each offered in left and right patterns for controlled distal luxation.
Using matched left and right pairs allows progressive luxation while preserving buccal and lingual bone.
Complete kit option
The full Hoexter Luxating Elevator assortment is also available as a complete set under item HF-IM5080EKIT, providing all mesial and distal configurations in one integrated armamentarium.
Key features
