Abstract: ABSTRACT SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR A PRESSURE-REGULATED DENTAL ELEVATOR The present invention discloses a system and a method for pressure-regulated dental luxation to prevent surgical complications. The system comprises a dental elevator with an integrated force-sensing module, such as a strain gauge or MEMS load cell, an internal microcontroller, and a feedback module. The method involves detecting real-time lateral and rotational forces during extraction and processing the data via the microcontroller to compare loads against pre-calibrated safe thresholds of 10–20 N. Operators receive immediate visual and haptic alerts through LEDs and vibration motors when force reaches dangerous levels. Encased in an autoclavable sealed housing, the invention ensures standardized, operator- independent force application, minimizing risks of root fractures and dentoalveolar trauma.
