"They cleve the periodontal ligament & bish bash bosh out it comes. They are just brilliant!!!! It is worth the investment just for there efficiency & smoothness of the whole procedure. If James Bond were a dentist l'm sure Q would make sure he had the whole range."

"Directa luxators are the only instrument I use for tooth extractions, well made and ergonomic, there isn't another option for me"

Prof. Jason Motta Jones

Adjunct Professor Humanitas University, Milano, Italy

"Extraction of fractured roots and apices is made very easy with Luxator Dual edge. It's shape and cutting action are extremely useful and precise to carry out the
procedure with a mini invasive bone preservation approach"

Dr. Aleksandar Dakic

Periodontist, Paris, France

"Since l've started to use Luxator for extractions, I never begin an extraction without them. It is my magic wand. Even if you broke an apex on a difficult tooth, you can go for it with all the different shape and size of Luxator"

Dr. Melissa Tayefi Bergvall

General Dentist, Stockholm, Sweden

"My obvious choice! Luxator fits right in my hand, good color coding on the
instrument and I easily find the Periodontal gap whith the fine sharpnes of the egg."

Dr. Mateo Sánchez Acedo

Stomatologist, Spain

"Extraction is an intrinsically aggressive treatment but Luxator reduces its abruptness".

Prof. Dr. David Peñarrocha-Oltra

DDS, MSc, PhD, Spain

"I have used Luxator now for approximately half of my professional career, which allows me to easily compare how my daily routine as Oral Surgeon was pre- and post- Luxator. It is one of those very rare cases in which you can find a 100% agreement among professionals about the utility of an instrument. Luxator makes every dentist life easier by making conventional extractions easier and almost imposible extractions possible. It certainly reduces chair-time and professional stress, while improving bone preservation and, thus, patient morbidity and subsequent implant treatment outcomes. I consider Luxator as the state-of-the-Art basic instrument to perform dental extractions. For this reason, both undergraduate and postgraduate students training under my supervision use Luxator on a daily basis."

"Perfect grip with your favorite dental Luxators is the name of the game in the field of Oral Surgery, because nothing can compete with our patients comfort and safety, and you
can find it in Directa. It's just like playing golf, perfect grip gives you a perfect swing."

treatment for the patient"

"Extraction made easy that's the luxury of having a Directa Luxator"

Dr. Jure Poglajen

DDS, Slovenia

"A standard choice for extractions primary because they are extremely efficient, easy to handle and with proper use saving a lot of adjacent tissue such as bone and therefore ensuring a low biological cost after the tooth is gone."

Especially I like the dual edge periotome models DE3, DE5 with two cutting directions what come handy at extracting roots deep in the bone. We are all aware bone is always needed regardless what therapy follows from implants through fixed prosthodontics till removable ones. To my colleagues I always present Luxator instruments as a smart choice for tissues friendly extraction. Luxator instruments surely enable me to extract a vast majority of the cases, only the most difficult ones which require a surgical approach are being referred to the specialist."

Luxator, the original.

The entire Luxator production takes places in Sweden, using high quality Swedish stainless steel.  These instruments are extremely durable, retaining their strength and sharpness after repeated use and sterilization. 

Luxator In Production

Luxator Periotomes are specially designed with a fine tapered blade that compresses the alveolar bone, cuts the membrane and gently eases the tooth from its socket. The tip of the blade is extremely thin. Luxator is tested and evaluated by a team of highly-qualified and renowned Swedish and international dental professionals.

Use it right, and you won't be disappointed.

And what does that mean exactly? Luxator Periotome is a surgical instrument specially designed for extraction by vertical luxation, if correctly used, it's an indispensable instrument in every dental clinic. To bend, chip or otherwise damage the tip, strong elevation forces are required that should not occur by regular vertical luxation. Should such forces be applied there will be damages to the cheekbone before damage to the tip is made. Luxator Periotomes are not intended for use as elevators!
