Tooth Luxating Oral Surgery Set SPI-1003

Description

A Tooth Luxating Oral Surgery Set is a specialized set of surgical instruments used in the extraction of teeth, especially for luxation procedures, where the goal is to loosen the tooth from its socket without causing damage to the surrounding bone or tissues. Luxating instruments are used to gently dislodge a tooth, making the extraction easier and less traumatic for the patient. These sets are most often used by oral surgeons, periodontists, and general dentists during complex extractions.

Key Components of a Tooth Luxating Oral Surgery Set:

1. Luxating Elevators:
   • Luxating Elevators: These are specialized instruments with thin, pointed blades that are inserted between the tooth and its surrounding bone. The blade is twisted or rocked back and forth to sever the periodontal ligament (the fibrous tissue that holds the tooth in place) without damaging the surrounding bone. Luxating elevators come in various shapes and sizes for different tooth positions (anterior, posterior, or molar teeth).
   • Blades and Curvature: Luxating elevators may have straight, curved, or angled blades depending on the area of the mouth being treated and the type of tooth being extracted.
2. Periotomes:
   • Periotomes: These are thin, flat instruments with sharp edges that are used to cut the periodontal ligament around the tooth, facilitating its loosening. Periotomes are very effective for atraumatic extractions, especially for single-rooted teeth or when minimal bone removal is desired. They come in different sizes, with narrow and broader blades to suit various tooth sizes.
3. Extraction Forceps:
   • Forceps: While luxating instruments are used for loosening the tooth, forceps are used to grasp and remove the tooth once it has been sufficiently loosened. The type of forceps selected will depend on the type of tooth (e.g., maxillary forceps for upper teeth or mandibular forceps for lower teeth).
   • Specialized Forceps: Some forceps are specifically designed for molars, premolars, or incisors, with different shapes to fit the unique anatomy of each tooth.
4. Elevators (Standard):
   • Standard Elevators: These are thicker instruments used to provide leverage for displacing a tooth after it has been loosened with luxating tools. They can be used in combination with forceps or luxating instruments to complete the extraction process.
5. Bone Scrapers:
   • Bone Scrapers: In some extractions, a small amount of bone removal may be necessary to fully dislodge the tooth. Bone scrapers help remove small bits of bone without causing excessive trauma to the surrounding tissues.
6. Sutures and Suturing Needles:
   • After the extraction is completed, the surgical site may need to be closed to promote healing. A variety of sutures (resorbable or non-resorbable) and suturing needles (such as curved or straight) are included in the set to close the wound.
7. Scalpel and Blades:
   • Scalpel: A scalpel may be needed to make an incision in the gum tissue to access the tooth, particularly when the tooth is impacted or there are signs of infection. The scalpel comes with disposable blades for precise incisions.
8. Hemostats:
   • Hemostats: These are used to clamp blood vessels and control bleeding during and after the procedure. They are particularly important in oral surgery to maintain a clean field and prevent excessive blood loss.
9. Bone Curettes:
   • Bone Curettes: After the tooth has been removed, these instruments are used to clean the socket of any debris, infected tissue, or remaining bone fragments, helping to promote healing and reduce the risk of infection.

Purpose and Benefits of the Tooth Luxating Oral Surgery Set:

1. Atraumatic Extractions:
   • The primary purpose of the instruments in this set is to make tooth extractions as gentle as possible, with minimal trauma to the surrounding bone and tissues. This reduces pain, bleeding, and healing time for the patient.
2. Minimized Bone Loss:
   • By using luxating instruments to loosen the tooth, there is less need for bone removal, which helps preserve the natural bone structure. This is especially important if the patient may need a dental implant or other restorative procedures after extraction.
3. Better Healing and Recovery:
   • Atraumatic extraction techniques using luxating instruments reduce the risk of complications such as dry socket, infection, and swelling, leading to faster healing and better outcomes for the patient.
4. Increased Precision:
   • The specialized design of luxating instruments allows the surgeon to work with greater precision, particularly in complex extractions involving impacted teeth, such as wisdom teeth.
5. Less Post-Operative Discomfort:
   • Because the technique is less invasive and gentler on the surrounding tissue, patients often experience less post-operative pain and swelling, leading to a quicker recovery.

Application:

• Tooth luxating procedures are used for removing teeth that are severely decayed, impacted, or diseased. This set is especially useful for extracting teeth in difficult-to-reach areas, such as the back of the mouth (molars), or when a conservative extraction is preferred.

Conclusion:

A Tooth Luxating Oral Surgery Set is an essential tool for oral surgeons and dental professionals who perform tooth extractions. By providing precise, gentle, and effective removal of teeth with minimal trauma, the set promotes faster healing, reduces discomfort, and helps preserve the integrity of surrounding tissues and bone, making it a key component in modern dental surgery.
