Description
The Mead #3 periosteal elevator is a classic, general-purpose instrument designed for reflecting and retracting the mucoperiosteum after incisions of the gingival tissue. It is a reliable choice for routine oral surgery, periodontal flap procedures, and basic implant site access where straightforward performance is needed.
Key Features:
- Double-ended configuration with one flat rounded blade for broad initial reflection and one sharper/angled blade for precise separation and elevation.
- Smooth, precision-finished edges support controlled tissue reflection with minimal trauma.
- Available in two handle options: the contoured Mead handle ( #522 large knurled octagon for secure grip) and the #6 Satin Steel handle for ergonomic balance and user preference.
Clinical Advantages:
- Dependable for initial flap reflection, periosteal separation, and routine surgical tasks
- Balanced design offers good control and tactile feedback across varying tissue conditions
- Durable surgical stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance and longevity through repeated sterilization
- Integrates easily into mixed trays as a foundational tool alongside more specialized periosteals
The Mead #3 is a time-tested, uncomplicated periosteal for clinicians seeking familiar, predictable flap management in everyday periodontal and oral surgical workflows.
