- A powerful and precise ultrasonic handpiece specifically designed for advanced bone surgery procedures using the Acteon Piezotome CUBE surgical unit
- It is not an endodontic or scaling handpiece but is used for a variety of minimally invasive bone and implant surgeries
Uses
- Atraumatic Extractions:
- Gently cutting the periodontal ligament to facilitate tooth removal with minimal force and maximal bone preservation, which is paramount for immediate implant placement
- Sinus Elevations:
- Performing precise bone cuts for sinus lifts, preserving the delicate sinus membrane due to its cutting selectivity
- Ridge Splitting/Expansion:
- Performing controlled osteotomies (bone cuts) to widen the alveolar ridge for implant placement
- Bone Block Grafting and Harvesting:
- Precisely cutting and shaping bone blocks with minimal bone loss for grafting procedures
- Implant Site Preparation:
- Used for preparing the implant osteotomy in cases with complex anatomy
Features
- LED Illumination:
- Features a bright LED ring integrated into the handpiece head, providing optimal visibility of the surgical field, which is often deep and hard to see
- Piezotome Technology:
- Designed to work with the Piezotome CUBE generator, using controlled linear ultrasonic vibrations that selectively cut mineralized tissue (bone) while sparing soft tissue (nerves, arteries, gingiva)
- Dynamic Power System Inside (DPSI):
- The handpiece works with the unit's intelligent system, which continuously monitors tip pressure and intuitively adapts power output as resistance is encountered, ensuring efficiency and safety
- Controlled Irrigation:
- Ensures a consistent flow of sterile irrigation solution reaches the end of the tip, preventing bone overheating (osteonecrosis) and ensuring a clear field of vision
- Autoclavable:
- The entire handpiece assembly (including the cord) is fully autoclavable, meeting stringent infection control requirements
- Ergonomics:
- The handpiece is designed to be lightweight and well-balanced, reducing hand fatigue during long surgical procedures
- Durable:
- Made with high-quality, corrosion-resistant materials for a long lifespan
Benefits
- Enhanced Safety:
- The most significant benefit is the preservation of soft tissue and vital anatomical structures (like nerves and membranes), as the Piezotome technology only affects hard tissue
- Minimal Patient Trauma:
- Minimally invasive procedures lead to significantly less post-operative pain, swelling, and complications, enhancing patient recovery and comfort
- Superior Outcomes:
- The precision and control facilitate faster, more predictable surgical results with minimal bone loss, which aids in better aesthetic outcomes and improved conditions for immediate implant placement
- Improved Efficiency:
- Powerful cutting performance speeds up surgical procedures compared to conventional methods like burs
- Clinical Versatility:
- Expands the clinician's surgical portfolio, allowing for the safe execution of a wide range of complex bone procedures
