Spectrum introduces a new style of dental elevator. The stainless steel elevators have winged tips that can be used for most extraction procedures.

Spectrum's wing tip elevators are available in four sizes, 2 mm, 3 mm, 3.5 mm and 4 mm.
Winged tip elevators should not be used in a lever action like standard elevators. The instrument's primary function is to sever the ligament by sliding around the tooth's root. The elevators should be used as a steady, gentle rotational pressure for 10-30 seconds to fatigue the periodontal ligament and cause hemorrhaging among the ligament's fibers.
