The Molt periosteal elevatoris a double‑ended surgical instrument used widely in veterinary oral surgery for reflecting and retracting the mucoperiosteum to expose underlying bone. Made from surgical‑grade stainless steel, it is fully autoclavable and designed to provide both precision and control during flap elevation.
Design and Function
The double‑ended design combines two working tips to support different stages of flap reflection:
-
Sharp, narrow tip — initiates flap lifting by gently separating the mucoperiosteum from bone.
-
Broader, rounded tip — retracts and elevates tissue with reduced trauma once the flap is mobilised.
This combination allows clinicians to transition smoothly from initial elevation to broader retraction without changing instruments.
Key Features
-
Stainless steel construction — durable, corrosion‑resistant and fully autoclavable.
-
Double‑ended configuration — supports both fine and broad tissue manipulation.
-
Precision control — ideal for delicate periosteal reflection.
-
Versatile use — suitable for oral surgery, periodontal procedures and flap‑based interventions.
-
Ergonomic handle — provides stability and tactile feedback during elevation.
