Spade Luxator Straight
CAD 189.99
Product Features
- Straight blade design – Direct apical access for anterior and premolar teeth in both arches
- Spade-shaped tip – Thin, flat blade for precise PDL space entry
- Primary Use:Â Extractions in the premolar-to-premolar zone (upper and lower arch)
- Versatile Coverage:Â Works on incisors, canines, and premolars in both maxilla and mandible
- PDL Fiber Severing:Â Progressive push-and-twist motion loosens single-rooted teeth efficiently
- Blade Width: ~3 mm | Overall Length: ~18–19 cm (7–7.5 in)
- Material: High-grade stainless steel – polished and corrosion-resistant
- Sterilization: Fully autoclave-compatible (134°C / 273°F)
- Reduces alveolar bone fracture risk by minimizing forceps force needed
- Ideal introductory luxator for dental students and general practitioners
The Spade Luxator Straight is a straight-blade dental luxation instrument used for extractions across the premolar-to-premolar region in both the upper and lower dental arches. The straight orientation is ideal for anterior and premolar teeth where direct, perpendicular access to the periodontal ligament space is available. The flat spade blade inserts straight into the sulcus, applying apical pressure to sever the PDL fibers and loosen the tooth. Suitable for both simple and surgical extractions in the front and bicuspid segments, this instrument is an essential component of any dental extraction kit. Fully autoclave-compatible stainless steel construction.
The Spade Luxator Straight is the most versatile luxation instrument in the spade series, covering the full premolar-to-premolar zone in both arches. Teeth in this region – upper and lower incisors, canines, and first and second premolars – often have single, conical, or slightly flattened roots that respond well to straight apical luxation. The straight blade allows the clinician to apply direct inward and downward pressure without any angular deviation, making it easier to control the direction of force.
The spade-shaped working end is designed to fit snugly into the narrow PDL space around anterior and premolar roots. A gentle but firm push-and-twist motion breaks down the periodontal ligament fibers incrementally. This “luxation before elevation” approach significantly reduces the physical force required during elevator use, resulting in cleaner socket walls, less risk of alveolar plate fracture, and faster postoperative healing.
Clinical Indications:Â Extraction of upper and lower incisors, canines, and premolars (premolar-to-premolar zone in both arches); also useful for root tip retrieval in the anterior segment.
Material & Build: High-grade stainless steel with a polished finish for smooth tissue entry. The handle is designed for a comfortable palm grip during apical pressure application. Autoclave-sterilizable at 134°C (273°F).
Blade Specifications: Straight spade-shaped blade, approximately 3 mm blade width, tapered tip for PDL penetration, overall length approximately 18–19 cm (7–7.5 inches).
The Spade Luxator Straight is highly recommended as a starter luxator for dental students and a routine workhorse instrument for general dentists and oral surgeons dealing with anterior and premolar extractions daily.
