Elevator Bayonet 8mm

Elevator Bayonet 8mm

The Elevator Bayonet 8mm Dental Elevator is a reusable dental surgical instrument designed for controlled tooth and retained-root elevation during extraction procedures. Its bayonet-style offset configuration helps position the working end within the posterior oral cavity while keeping the handle away from the direct working line.

The current Peak Surgicals model is identified as PS-929 and is manufactured from German stainless steel. The product carries an 8mm model designation and is listed within the Peak Surgicals dental elevator range for professional dental surgical use.

8mm Bayonet Dental Elevator

The current product is specifically identified as Elevator Bayonet 8mm. This 8mm designation distinguishes the instrument from the standard Elevator Bayonet and the separate Elevator Bayonet 8mm Straight product also listed within the Peak Surgicals dental elevator collection.

The current product page does not explicitly define whether the 8mm measurement represents working-tip width, blade width, or another dimensional reference. Buyers requiring the exact dimensional interpretation should therefore confirm it before ordering.

Bayonet Offset Shaft Design

The defining feature of the instrument is its bayonet-style offset design. Peak Surgicals' dental elevator collection describes the Bayonet Elevator pattern as having an offset shaft that helps keep the handle out of the direct line of sight when working toward the back of the mouth.

This configuration can provide a different working approach from a completely straight dental elevator when posterior access is required.

Dental Extraction and Root Elevation

Peak Surgicals lists this model within its Dental Elevators range. Dental elevators are used to loosen teeth or retained roots before or during extraction by providing controlled leverage around the tooth or root structure.

The exact technique, point of application, and amount of leverage should be determined by the dental professional according to the tooth, root anatomy, surrounding structures, and planned extraction approach.

Posterior Oral Access

The bayonet configuration is particularly relevant when working within deeper areas of the oral cavity. By offsetting the main shaft from the working end, the instrument design can help reduce obstruction of the operator's direct view compared with a fully straight instrument profile.

The exact working-end geometry and shaft offset dimensions are not stated on the current product page and should not be assumed from another manufacturer's Bayonet Elevator.

German Stainless Steel Construction

The current Peak Surgicals specification confirms German stainless steel construction. The metallic design provides the rigid structure required for a reusable dental elevator used during controlled manual elevation.

The exact stainless-steel alloy grade is not stated on the current product page. Dental clinics, hospitals, distributors, and procurement teams requiring a specific steel designation or supporting material documentation should confirm that specification before ordering.

Reusable Dental Surgical Instrument

Peak Surgicals specifically identifies PS-929 as reusable. The instrument is intended for repeated professional use when properly cleaned, inspected, and reprocessed according to applicable manufacturer instructions and the dental facility's validated procedures.

Before reuse, the working end, shaft, handle, and all instrument surfaces should be inspected for corrosion, deformation, surface damage, or other conditions that could affect normal elevator function.

Satin, Dull and Mirror Finish Options

The current Peak Surgicals product specification lists satin, dull, and mirror finish options. These allow dental practices, distributors, and procurement teams to select a surface finish appropriate for their existing instrument inventory.

If a particular finish is required, the selected configuration should be confirmed when placing the order.

Selectable Size Option

The live storefront contains a Size selector in addition to the 8mm product designation. However, the individual selectable values are not exposed in the currently accessible page information.

Buyers requiring confirmation of whether additional sizes or working-end configurations are supplied under PS-929 should verify the exact variant before purchase.

Product Specifications

For Dental Clinics and Instrument Procurement

The Elevator Bayonet 8mm is relevant for dental clinics, oral surgery practices, hospitals, dental instrument distributors, teaching facilities, and procurement teams sourcing reusable extraction elevators.

For accurate purchasing and inventory identification, buyers can reference PS-929, the 8mm Bayonet Elevator designation, German stainless-steel construction, and required finish option. Buyers requiring exact working-tip width, shaft length, overall instrument length, handle dimensions, or stainless-steel alloy grade should confirm those specifications before ordering because they are not stated on the current Peak Surgicals product page.
