Piezoelectric Surgery

The Piezo is the best instrument available for many surgical procedures, including extractions and sinus elevation. It is safer, gentler and bone friendly. Make sure your specialist offers the use of the Piezo.

Piezoelectric surgery is the most advanced and gentle way to extract a tooth or to do dental bone surgery. It is very precise, does not overheat and does not damage bone at the cellular level, (as drills do). It is safer than drills or saws. It does not damage vital nerves or blood vessels because the Piezo does not cut soft tissue. You can place the cutting tip in the palm of your hand without any harm.

The Piezo also allows bone to heal more readily, and most importantly it may prevent the very costly need to rebuild bone.

The proper way to extract a tooth or to do dental bone surgery is to protect and maintain the surrounding bone. Loss of bone associated with tooth removal can lead to severe defects. These defects can affect appearance and speech, as well as the surgeon’s ability to place an implant. The Piezoelectric is, without a doubt, the best instrument available for removing multiple rooted teeth, difficult to extract teeth and severely fractured or decayed teeth.

The Piezoelectric can also be used for sinus elevation surgery, a procedure commonly done prior to the placement of dental implants. It can safely and gently cut through the bony covering without tearing the sinus membrane.

The Piezoelectric is highly recommended for any dental surgery involving the bone.
