Frequently asked questions
Does the ergonomic handle improve surgical control?
Yes, the hollow handle design integrated with vertical grooves is specifically engineered to provide superior tactile feedback and a highly secure, non-slip grip. This design allows clinicians to maintain better control during complex craniomaxillofacial maneuvers compared to standard instruments.
Is the stainless steel construction highly durable?
Absolutely. This instrument is crafted from high-quality stainless steel, ensuring it remains reliable and durable even in the most demanding surgical environments. It is a professional-grade tool designed for long-term use.
Are the tip edges designed for patient safety?
Yes, the instrument features a slightly curved design with a blunt and rounded working edge. This configuration is specifically intended to facilitate effective tissue manipulation while balancing safety to prevent unintended trauma during the stripping of the periosteum.
Can this elevator be reused for multiple procedures?
Yes, this is a reusable surgical instrument. It is built to withstand repeated clinical use and sterilization processes required in a surgical setting.
Is the instrument suitable for latex-sensitive environments?
Yes, the Sklar Obwegeser Periosteal Elevator is 100% latex-free and is not made with natural rubber latex, making it safe for use in environments where latex sensitivities are a concern.
Does the design assist in precise periosteum stripping?
The instrument is specifically engineered to strip the periosteum from the mandible with high precision. Its slightly curved tip and blunt edge allow for effective separation of tissue from bone without unnecessary damage to the surrounding area.
Are there different sizing options available for the tip?
Yes, to better accommodate different anatomical needs and procedural requirements, this instrument is available in four different tip widths.
Does this tool meet government procurement standards?
Yes, the Sklar Obwegeser Periosteal Elevator is TAA compliant, making it suitable for government and institutional procurement requirements.
Is the instrument ready for use upon delivery?
Please note that the instrument is delivered non-sterile. Before its first use in a surgical environment, it must be properly cleaned and sterilized according to your facility’s standard protocols for surgical instruments.
How long is the instrument overall?
The instrument measures 7 inches in length, providing an optimal balance between maneuverability for the surgeon and reach for craniomaxillofacial procedures.
