The Quinelato Seldin Elevator #1R is a right-oriented surgical elevator built around a wide, flag-shaped blade and a double-angled shank. It engages the periodontal ligament space to sever the attachment, mobilize molar roots, and separate periosteum from the alveolar bone.
Key Features
Right-oriented blade — angled to the right so the working end sits square against teeth in right-side segments
Double-angled shank — carries the blade to the posterior region while the handle stays clear of the opposing arch
Wide flag-shaped tip — engages bulky molar root structure, including the palatal roots of maxillary molars
Periosteal reflection capability — the same edge lifts periosteum and soft tissue off the alveolar bone
One-piece blade and shank — transmits rotational force from the handle straight to the working end
