Diagnostics
CBCT software — Allows the doctor to computer-simulate surgery and evaluate bone in three dimensions. Evaluating length, depth and height gives the doctor a surgical perspective, presurgically. CBCT software can be used to fabricate custom surgical guides, which provide the most accurate implant placement possible.
Surgical microscope — Allows for microscopic evaluation and treatment for selected procedures.
Bone Augmentation Products
Autogenous — This is bone retrieved from sites in your jaw or even from your leg for bony defects of the jaws.
Allograft® — Bone derived from cadaver source. This bone is processed and sterilized for use in defect sites.
Xenograf® — Bone material from an animal source which can also be used.
BMP – A synthetically produced protein that actually creates bone.
BioActive Modifiers
PRGF — A small blood draw is taken at the time of surgery, platelets are separated and mixed with the bone product to increase healing ability and decrease healing time.
Piezo ultrasonic technology — Using high-frequency ultrasound waves, this bone saw provides greater efficiency in bone surgery and improves healing.
Radiofrequency technology — Using high-frequency radio waves to pass through tissue minimizes bleeding and increases visibility of the surgery site, resulting in accelerated healing.
