What is the difference between a winged elevator and a luxator?
An elevator uses controlled leverage and rotation to release the ligament fibres and loosen the tooth, while a
luxator features a sharper, thinner blade that severs the periodontal ligament with a gentle pushing motion. Both
are used in veterinary tooth extraction; the choice depends on technique and tooth type.
Is the iM3 Sapphira Winged Elevator autoclavable?
Yes. The iM3 Sapphira Winged Elevator is fully autoclavable to 134°C and is constructed from high-quality stainless
steel throughout.
