Directions To Use :

Guiding principles for use of elevators:
The following rules should be observed when using elevators in
general:

• Never use an adjacent tooth as a fulcrum, unless that tooth is to be
  extracted itself in the same visit, and the fulcrum should always be
  bony one (alveolar bone).
  
• An elevator should always be supported to avoid slippage and
  injury to the patient.
  
• Avoid the use of excessive force if the tooth/root resist luxation, by
  gentle rotation, then stop, look for the obstruction to elevation, and deal
  with it.
