The Quinelato Prichard Periosteal Elevator #3 is a double-ended instrument used to elevate, reflect and retract the mucoperiosteum after a gingival incision so the underlying bone is exposed. It is made from surgical stainless steel and pairs a large flat blade with a narrow blade, covering broad reflection and work in tight interproximal spaces.
Key Features
Large flat blade — reflects and holds the mucoperiosteum across a broad area of the surgical field.
Narrow blade — reaches interproximal and confined sites where the working end has to stay close to the bone.
Double-ended shaft — carries both working ends on one instrument for continuous flap management.
Surgical stainless steel — holds up to routine steam sterilization across repeated use.
One-piece stainless construction — no seams or moving parts along the shaft to trap debris during cleaning.
