In our dental clinic in Milan, we practice piezoelectric or piezosurgery. This has changed the way of operating on hard tissues because it allows cutting the bone while respecting the soft tissues. The three main advantages of this innovation are:
- Better intra-operative visibility,
- Reduced bone trauma,
- Reduction of risks of damage to gums, mucous membranes, and nerves.
Traditional tools such as drills and saws involve cutting any soft tissue during dental surgery procedures. The use of the Piezosurgery 3® instrument by the professionals in our dental clinic allows cutting the bone with greater selectivity. Thanks to its special ultrasonic microvibrations, no soft tissue is damaged. This allows working with precision that facilitates the surgical procedure while reducing post-operative discomfort for patients.
DENTAL CLINIC SPECIALIZED IN PIEZOSURGERY
In our clinic, we have been using piezoelectric bone surgery for several years and specialize in applying this technique in numerous areas. Among the most common are periodontology, endodontics, implantology, orthodontics, and maxillofacial surgery.
We prefer piezosurgery technology because it offers better visibility of the oral cavity during procedures. Additionally, our experience has shown us greater ease and speed of recovery for patients in the post-operative phase. The extraction of complex teeth, for example, is less painful and invasive because it does not involve the use of traditional drills.
Piezosurgery Technology and Main Applications
The original piezosurgery technique operates through special ultrasonic microvibrations capable of cutting bone without involving soft tissues. There are various types of inserts that allow the use of this osteotomy and osteoplastic technique. The microvibrations reduce inflammatory cells and promote the production of osteoblasts and bone healing. The principles of minimal invasiveness and surgical predictability underlie this technology.
The most significant procedures that can be performed using this instrument are as follows:
- Micrometric cutting for minimally invasive surgery with maximum precision and intra-operative sensitivity;
- Selective cutting that protects any type of soft tissue. During bone cutting, nerves, blood vessels, or membranes will not be injured. Piezosurgery 3® offers maximum safety for both surgeons and patients;
- Cavitation effect with optimal intra-operative visibility. The cavitation effect of the physiological solution leads to a surgical site without bleeding.
