Luxator Instruments
Why Choose Luxator
Created in Sweden, Luxator instruments from Directa Dental make extractions as trauma-free as possible.
Inspired by Dentists
Specifically developed to incorporate subtleties that only a practising dentist would appreciate, all Luxator instruments are ergonomically designed for optimum comfort and maximum control during use.
The unique size and shape of each instrument handle minimises the force required during procedures. It’s this careful attention to detail that sets Luxator instruments apart from others on the market.
Only high-quality, medical-grade materials are used during the manufacturing process. Ultra-durable materials ensure that these dental Luxators deliver supreme and reliable performance throughout their lifetime, retaining their strength and sharpness after repeated use and sterilisation.
Embrace Comfort and Precision
During dental surgery, Luxator instruments offer a modern alternative to traditional forcep extractions. By reducing bone loss and tissue trauma, procedures can be carried out in a safer and more precise fashion.
It is this ability to provide a more comfortable experience that has made Luxator synonymous with tooth extraction in dental practices around the world.
Dental Luxators feature a fine tapered blade that compresses the alveolar, cuts the membrane, and lightly separates the tooth from its socket. This minimises destruction to the surrounding tissue and ensures the implant site remains intact.
The slim, stainless-steel Luxator blade can be easily inserted between bone and tooth root with minimal effort. And for even smoother entry, the titanium-coated blades of the Titanium and P-Series dental Luxators reduce friction by up to 43 per cent.
Once the tooth is removed from its socket, any loose fragments attached to the periodontal ligament can be removed using the Luxator RootPicker. Capable of gripping small and slippery remnants, RootPickers are the ideal tool for clearing unwanted debris.
