3mm Curved Luxator PHX Dental Tooth Extraction

PHX 3mm Curved Dental Luxator for Angled Periodontal Access

The PHX 3mm Curved Dental Luxator is a specialized dental extraction instrument designed for procedures where the periodontal space is better approached with a curved working end. Its combination of a 3mm blade and PHX configuration gives this model a distinct role among luxators used for progressive tooth mobilization.

The 3mm curved blade provides a focused working profile for entering an accessible portion of the periodontal space. Its relatively compact dimension allows the tip to be positioned around suitable areas of the tooth while maintaining a defined contact surface for gradual periodontal separation.

The curved geometry is the main functional distinction of this instrument. Instead of following a completely straight path toward the tooth, the working end creates an offset approach that can be positioned according to the available anatomy. This can be useful where tooth position or surrounding structures make a direct linear approach less convenient.

The PHX handle provides a dedicated gripping configuration behind the curved working shaft. Its shape allows the instrument to be positioned and repositioned while maintaining a stable relationship between the hand, shaft, and working tip throughout the mobilization process.

The working edge can be introduced into an appropriate area of the periodontal space and progressively repositioned as separation develops. This gives the luxator a specific role during the tooth-loosening and mobilization stage before subsequent extraction steps.

The PHX 3mm Curved Dental Luxator can be incorporated into procedures involving periodontal ligament separation, tooth loosening, progressive tooth mobilization, and extraction preparation. Its curved 3mm configuration is particularly relevant when a focused working end and an angled approach are both desirable.

Selection should be based on tooth position, root anatomy, periodontal access, surrounding structures, available working space, and the clinician's preferred extraction technique. The instrument is intended for repeated professional use with appropriate dental instrument cleaning and sterilization procedures.

FAQs

What is the PHX 3mm Curved Dental Luxator used for?
It is intended to assist with periodontal ligament separation and progressive tooth mobilization during suitable extraction procedures where a curved approach is appropriate.

What does the 3mm specification refer to?
The 3mm measurement identifies the working blade dimension and distinguishes this model from PHX luxators with different working sizes.

Why is the blade curved?
The curved blade creates an offset route toward the working area, which can be useful when a straight approach does not provide the most practical access.

What distinguishes the PHX configuration?
PHX identifies the specific handle and working arrangement of this luxator, giving it a distinct configuration compared with other luxator designs.

Can the PHX 3mm Curved Luxator help loosen a tooth?
Yes. It can be incorporated into appropriate extraction workflows where periodontal separation and gradual development of tooth mobility are required.

When should a curved 3mm luxator be selected?
Selection should take into account the tooth's position, periodontal access, surrounding anatomy, available working space, and the clinician's preferred extraction technique.
