Allen Periosteal Elevator, Posterior, Black Line

The Posterior Microsurgical Elevator, Black Line, is designed to facilitate blunt dissection in the tunnel technique. The angle of the shank provides improved access for posterior interradicular dissection. The blade is inserted into the sulcus of the posterior tooth and directed toward the distal aspect of the papilla on the mesial aspect of the tooth. Elevation of the interradicular tissues is accomplished by dissecting from the posterior toward the anterior.
