Luxator Periotomes are specially designed with fine tapering blades that compress the alveolar bone, cut the membrane and gently ease the tooth from its socket. The Luxator Titanium Periotome offers enhanced durability and extractions are performed with a minimum of tissue damage. The titanium coating lowers the friction with 43% compared with stainless steel, making it easier to glide into the socket. The new durable titanium coated tip does not require sharpening.
