Throughout history dentists have been taught to extract teeth in the easiest direction — towards the thinnest, supportive buccal bone. However, this technique leads to ischemic or traumatic bone loss of buccal bone resulting in cavernous buccal depressions that will not adequately support an implant. However, if a mesial/distal approach is used, the buccal and lingual bone is preserved and bone regeneration occurs. This enables successful implant positioning and predictable osseointegration. This is why the Hoexter Mesial/Distal Luxating Elevators are designed to protect the osseous ridge in tooth extractions by luxating roots in the mesio-distal plane. —– Design Rationale by Dr. David Hoexter
