Luxator – Straight, 3 mm – Small Handle

The Luxator 3 mm – Straight – Small Handle is a precision instrument designed for delicate, atraumatic tooth and root loosening. Its thin straight blade allows access into the periodontal ligament space to help sever fibers with controlled, minimal-trauma movement. The straight profile is especially useful for anterior and interproximal areas where visibility, access, and tip control are important. This discontinued small-handle version features a compact 8 cm handle with a longer 7 cm tip section, giving the instrument a shorter overall profile compared with the standard-handle version.
