A periosteal elevator is a dental and surgical instrument used to gently detach the periosteum, the thin layer of tissue covering the bone.

This instrument plays an important role in surgical procedures, such as tooth extractions, jaw surgery, and implant placements, where bone access is required. The periosteal elevator is often used for procedures involving molars, premolars, and canines in both the upper and lower jaws.
