The Quinelato Apical Root Elevator #301 is a fine-tipped instrument for retrieving root remnants from the apical third of the socket. Its slender working end travels down the periodontal space to engage and lift fragments that sit close to the apex.
Key Features
Ultra-slim working tip — passes into the narrow apical portion of the extraction socket
Fine tapered point — engages small fragments that offer little surface to grip
Slender shank — keeps the operative field visible while the tip is seated deep in the socket
Bone-conserving approach — the tip is worked along the socket wall to preserve surrounding bone and soft tissue
Surgical stainless steel construction — corrosion resistant and reusable through repeated sterilization cycles
