VISTA Tunneling Kit 5 pcs

The VISTA Tunneling Kit 5 Pcs contains five single-purpose subperiosteal tunneling elevators; VISTA 1 through VISTA 5, each constructed from surgical-grade stainless steel with blue Titanium Nitride coated working tips. Each elevator carries a distinct shaft angulation and atraumatic tip geometry, progressing from a near-straight first elevator through increasingly curved and offset configurations for VISTA 2 through 5. All five instruments are stored in a perforated stainless-steel autoclavable cassette that keeps each piece positionally fixed and separated during sterilization.

Each instrument’s 9mm diameter handle delivers a thick, slip-resistant grip that distributes finger force evenly, reducing wrist strain during the sustained pressure required for subperiosteal elevation. The VISTA Tunneling Kit tips’ blue TiN coating preserves working-edge sharpness across repeated use cycles, resists surface corrosion, and provides clear visual contrast against oral tissue and bone. All five instruments tolerate full steam autoclave sterilization at 134°C without tip distortion, coating delamination, or handle warping, supporting reliable multi-cycle clinical reuse.

Periodontists performing the Vestibular Incision Subperiosteal Tunnel Access technique use this Vista – Tunnel Set to treat multiple adjacent gingival recession defects without incisions directly over recession sites. After a single vertical vestibular incision, the five elevators are used in progressive sequence, each successive instrument extending and widening the subperiosteal tunnel further coronally, to position connective tissue or acellular dermal matrix grafts beneath an intact papilla-preserving flap, maintaining blood supply and minimizing post-surgical scarring.

Periodontists building a dependable microsurgical armamentarium recognize Leader Surgical as a source that delivers technique-specific instrument sets with the build quality that makes each procedure go exactly as planned.

What is included in the 5-piece kit?
The kit typically includes five specialized tunneling elevators (often numbered 1 through 5) designed with various curvatures and bayonet tips for precise tissue reflection. Most kits come in a professional stainless steel sterilization cassette.
