Obwegeser Periosteal Elevator 18cm

Introduction of Obwegeser Periosteal Elevator

The Obwegeser Periosteal Elevator stands as a specialized surgical instrument trusted across maxillofacial surgeries. Surgeons rely on it to elevate and separate the periosteum from the underlying bone, making delicate tissue work more predictable during demanding reconstructive and corrective procedures on the face.

Its primary function centres on periosteal elevation — lifting fibrous tissues cleanly and atraumatically while minimizing trauma to the surrounding tissue. This controlled approach lets clinicians dissect planes accurately, protecting healthy structures throughout intricate corrective work near the skull and jaw.

Crafted from high-quality stainless steel, this reusable instrument pairs robust construction with dependable durability and reliable performance across countless cases. Supplied non-sterile, its balanced overall length suits routine handling, giving surgical teams a lasting, precise tool for everyday theatre demands.

Key Features of Obwegeser Elevator 

The principal use of this instrument centers on maxillofacial surgery, where surgeons detach periosteum folds from the mandible and maxillary bone. Its controlled elevation enables precise manipulation throughout surgical procedures that demand careful, deliberate handling of delicate maxillofacial anatomy near sensitive regions.

Beyond core jaw work, practitioners rely on it during rhinoplasty and facelifts, plus cranial interventions requiring effective separation of soft tissue from underlying bone structures. The gentle lift it delivers supports lengthy procedures while minimizing tissue trauma and protecting surrounding structures throughout.

Across varied surgical settings, its optimal control becomes valuable when working membrane away from bone during prolonged use. Experienced practitioners recognize genuine surgical advantages here, since the tool navigates confined operative fields without compromising accuracy or tissue integrity throughout demanding cases.

The 18cm (18.0 cm, 7 inches, 7″) instrument features an oval blade, shaped blade with a 7.0 mm wide blade and semi-sharp edge, slightly curved with a slight curve for reach along its length. Its ergonomic design and ergonomic handle—whether flat handle or hollow handle—include longitudinal ridges that aid gripping, deliver grip stability, superior grip, and comfort, plus prevents slippage through a balanced approach while reducing hand fatigue. Convenient secure payment method and non-contact shipping complete the package.
