Woodson Elevator, De, 7″

The Woodson Elevator DE 7″ is a high-quality double-ended surgical instrument commonly used in dental, oral surgery, and maxillofacial procedures for the elevation of periosteum and soft tissues. It is specifically designed to provide surgeons with precision, control, and reliability during delicate tissue dissection and reflection tasks.

This instrument features a double-ended (DE) configuration, allowing surgeons to use two different working tips in a single tool. One end is typically sharper or more tapered for initial tissue separation, while the opposite end provides a broader or more rounded profile for controlled elevation and retraction. This dual functionality improves surgical efficiency and reduces the need for instrument switching during procedures.

With a total length of 7 inches, the Woodson Elevator DE offers an optimal balance between reach and maneuverability. It allows excellent access to both shallow and moderately deep surgical sites while maintaining precise tactile feedback. This makes it especially useful in confined oral cavities where control and visibility are essential.

Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the Woodson Elevator DE ensures long-lasting durability and resistance to corrosion, rust, and wear. The material is designed to withstand repeated sterilization cycles without losing structural integrity or performance quality. Its polished finish enhances smooth handling and makes cleaning easier after surgical use.

The ergonomic handle design provides a secure grip, minimizing slippage and improving control during delicate procedures. This reduces hand fatigue during prolonged surgeries and allows for more stable and accurate tissue manipulation. The instrument’s balanced weight distribution further enhances precision and surgeon comfort.

The Woodson Elevator DE 7″ is widely used in procedures such as tooth extraction, periodontal surgery, flap elevation, implant site preparation, and bone exposure. It is an essential tool in oral surgical setups where controlled elevation of periosteal tissues is required for optimal access to underlying bone structures.

Its smooth edges and refined tips are designed to minimize trauma to surrounding tissues, ensuring safer surgical outcomes and improved healing conditions for patients. The instrument is fully compatible with standard sterilization methods, including autoclave and chemical sterilization processes, ensuring strict infection control compliance in clinical environments.

The Woodson Elevator DE 7″ remains a trusted instrument for dental professionals and oral surgeons due to its versatility, durability, and precision-focused design. It is a reliable addition to any surgical instrument set where controlled tissue elevation is required.
