Luxators for Very Tight Spaces
In places you can’t get to with traditional luxating tools, LM-SlimLift™ instruments help you extract teeth as atraumatically as possible. The instrument has an extremely fine tip to fit into very narrow periodontal spaces. LM-SlimLift™ is available in different sizes and angulations.
Working With the LM-SlimLift™
“I use LM-SlimLift™ instruments currently for nearly all extractions. I also use my older preferred luxating instruments while the use of the traditional ones has become less frequent. LM’s thin luxating instrument can enter even particularly narrow periodontal spaces. When wide instruments are used, the luxating force is spread over a wider area to the sides and deeper towards the tip of the roots so that the fracturing risk of the fragile roots, in particular, is limited considerably. The majority of extractions can be performed with luxating instruments without any need for any other operative measures.
“The design and material of the LM-SlimLift™ instrument make it possible to get an excellent grip on the instrument. At first touch, the handles may even feel too big but in clinical work I have noticed they fit the hand perfectly. The instrument can be held either on the palm of your hand or held only with your fingers. It is easy to pick a suitable instrument for any clinical need from the broad size selection. The wide blades are appropriate for the extraction of the lower molars while the narrow tips are perfect, for instance, for the extraction of the narrow roots of the upper teeth.
“I can recommend the LM-SlimLift™ instruments for all dentists: it makes sense to abandon the old and poorly functioning instruments altogether. Too often you hear of cases where the treatment of the root has taken close to two hours.”
