ROOT ELEVATORS NES-811

Fig. 3
The NES-811 is a Schlemmer elevator, a design generally associated with root tip elevation in situations where a broader blade would struggle to find purchase. The Schlemmer pattern carries a narrow, precise working end suited to engaging small or partially retained root fragments, the kind of work where control matters more than raw leverage.
That precision becomes especially valuable once a root has fractured below the crest or a fragment remains lodged after the bulk of the tooth has come free. A wider elevator can end up displacing more bone than necessary trying to reach a small target, while a Schlemmer’s finer tip is built to work directly against the fragment itself, applying focused pressure without disturbing the surrounding socket walls more than needed. This kind of targeted design is part of why specific patterns like this one remain a fixture alongside more general-purpose dental root elevator options in a well-equipped surgical kit, rather than being treated as interchangeable with them.
Typical situations for the NES-811:
Elevating small or partially retained root fragments
Fine retrieval work following a fractured extraction
Cases where a standard elevator risks unnecessary bone disturbance
Supporting a more conservative, atraumatic retrieval approach
Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel, the NES-811 is built to retain its fine tip geometry through repeated autoclave cycles, an important consideration given how much this instrument’s usefulness depends on precision. Some extractions end with the easy part. This is the instrument for the part that follows.
