00.2 - Description of the Device
Thanks to its controlled three-dimensional ultrasound oscillations, the original Piezosurgery
technique rings in a new age for osteotomy and osteoplasty in Implantology, Periodontol-
ogy, Endodontics and Orthodontic Surgery. Its main features are:
- Micrometric cutting: Maximum surgical precision and intra-operative sensibility;
- Selective cutting: Maximum safety for the soft tissues;
- Cavitation effect: Maximum intra-operative visibility (bloodless field).
The equipment has an automatic tuning circuit that offsets wear of the inserts, thus ensur-
ing work in constant conditions of maximum efficiency.
