Frequently asked questions
Is the stainless steel grade suitable for sterilization?
Yes, this instrument is constructed from high-quality stainless steel specifically designed for repeated clinical use. As a reusable surgical instrument, it is fully compatible with standard autoclave sterilization processes.
How does the T-bar handle improve surgical control?
The knurled T-bar handle is engineered to provide superior tactile feedback and torque. The textured surface ensures a secure grip even when wearing gloves, allowing for precise leverage during root elevation tasks.
Is this elevator safe for patients with latex allergies?
Absolutely. The Sklar Barry Root Elevator is manufactured without natural rubber latex, making it a safe choice for practitioners who need to maintain a latex-free clinical environment.
What is the primary benefit of the pointed working edge?
The pointed working edge combined with the angled, curved tip allows for highly specific tissue manipulation and easier access to tight interproximal spaces where traditional elevators might struggle.
Does the instrument meet TAA procurement standards?
Yes, this product is TAA compliant, meeting the rigorous standards required for government and institutional procurement.
Is the right-angled curvature ideal for specific procedures?
The angled (right) curvature is specifically designed to reach areas that require lateral pressure. It is optimized for the Barry root elevation technique, providing the necessary geometry to perform targeted extractions efficiently.
How durable is this instrument for daily clinic use?
Constructed as a professional-grade, reusable surgical instrument, it is built for longevity. Its robust stainless steel construction ensures it withstands the rigors of frequent use and repeated sterilization cycles.
What is the total length of this elevator?
The Sklar Barry Root Elevator (371 R) has an instrument length of 4-1/2 inches, which provides a balanced profile for optimal control and maneuverability during procedures.
Does the instrument arrive ready for immediate use?
The instrument arrives in a non-sterile condition. You will need to process it through your facility’s standard sterilization protocols before it is ready for use in a surgical or dental setting.
Why is this considered a high-value surgical tool?
The instrument combines precision engineering with high-grade materials. Its specific ergonomic design and durability make it a reliable, long-term asset in a professional surgical toolkit.
