Heidbrink Root Tip Elevator

The Heidbrink Root Tip Elevator Angled Right is a specialized dental extraction instrument designed for controlled access to retained root tips and small root fragments. Its right-angled working configuration provides an alternative approach when a straight root-tip instrument does not provide convenient access to the required area.

The current Peak Surgicals model is identified as PS-958. It is manufactured from German stainless steel, is listed as reusable, and is available with selectable size and surface-finish options for professional dental and surgical instrument sets.

Right-Angled Heidbrink Design

The defining feature of this instrument is its angled-right working end. The Heidbrink root-tip pattern is used within dental extraction instrumentation when access to a retained root tip or fragment requires a different working approach than a straight elevator or pick.

Established dental instrument catalogs also distinguish Heidbrink patterns into straight, right-angled, and left-angled configurations. The right-hand version is specifically intended to provide angled access where a straight working end may be less suitable.

Designed for Root Tip Retrieval

The Heidbrink pattern is associated with elevating and retrieving retained root tips during dental extraction procedures. The fine working end allows the clinician to approach small root remnants where a larger conventional extraction elevator may provide excessive bulk.

The exact method of use should be determined by the dental surgeon according to root position, surrounding anatomy, visibility, and the extraction technique being performed.

Access to Difficult Root Fragments

A right-angled root-tip instrument can be useful when the fragment cannot be conveniently approached with a straight instrument. The change in working direction allows the distal end to reach around or beside the retained root according to the available access.

The current Peak Surgicals page does not state the exact angular degree of PS-958, so a specific 90-degree configuration should not be assumed from comparable Heidbrink instruments sold by other manufacturers.

Dental Extraction Instrument

Peak Surgicals identifies PS-958 as an Elevator. Its product name further defines it as a Heidbrink Root Tip Elevator Angled Right, placing it within the specialized group of dental instruments used during tooth and root extraction procedures.

The instrument may be incorporated into oral surgery and extraction instrument sets where dedicated root-tip access instruments are required.

German Stainless Steel Construction

The current Peak Surgicals specification confirms German stainless steel construction. The metallic design provides the rigidity required for a reusable manual dental elevator while supporting professional instrument handling and reprocessing.

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 Instrument

Peak Surgicals specifically identifies the Heidbrink Root Tip Elevator as reusable. Following clinical use, the working tip, shaft, handle, and all instrument surfaces should be cleaned, inspected, and reprocessed according to applicable manufacturer instructions and the healthcare facility's validated procedures.

Before subsequent use, inspect the working end for deformation, tip damage, corrosion, or other visible deterioration that could affect normal instrument function.

Selectable Size Options

The live Peak Surgicals storefront provides a Size selector for PS-958, indicating that selectable configurations are available.

The exact selectable dimensions are not exposed in the current product information. Buyers requiring a particular overall length, handle size, tip width, or working-end measurement should therefore confirm the selected configuration before ordering.

Satin, Dull and Mirror Finish Options

The current Peak Surgicals specification lists satin, dull, and mirror finish options. These surface choices allow clinics, hospitals, distributors, and dental instrument buyers to select a finish suitable for their instrument inventory.

If a specific finish is required, the chosen option should be confirmed when placing the order.

For Dental Clinics and Extraction Instrument Procurement

The Heidbrink Root Tip Elevator Angled Right is relevant for dental clinics, oral surgery departments, hospitals, dental schools, instrument distributors, and procurement teams sourcing specialized extraction and root-tip instruments.

For accurate purchasing and inventory identification, buyers can reference PS-958, the Heidbrink angled-right configuration, German stainless-steel construction, and required size or finish option. Buyers requiring exact overall length, tip dimensions, angle degree, handle dimensions, or stainless-steel alloy grade should confirm those specifications before ordering because they are not stated on the current Peak Surgicals page.
