Sterilization: Ensure the instrument is properly cleaned and sterilized before the procedure following standard autoclave protocols.

Initial Placement: After administering local anesthesia, place the tip of the elevator at the incision margin between the gingival tissue and underlying bone.

Reflection: Gently slide the instrument along the bone surface to separate and reflect the periosteum and soft tissue flap.

Elevation: Use controlled pushing and lifting movements to gradually elevate the mucoperiosteal flap without tearing the tissue.

Exposure: Continue reflecting the tissue until the required surgical area is adequately exposed.

Post-Procedure: After use, clean, disinfect, and sterilize the instrument properly before storage.
