What is Piezotome Technology?
The Piezotome CUBE device is an advanced form of dental technology that works to make certain dental treatments easier to complete and improve their outcomes. It’s quickly becoming one of the most trusted pieces of equipment used by oral surgeons, especially on treatments involving oral bone tissue. With it, Dr. Shah is capable of performing procedures more quickly, more accurately, and with minimal trauma.
Whether precise areas of bone need to be modified or removed, the process becomes more comfortable when using the Piezotome CUBE device, especially compared to traditional dental instruments.
How Does the Piezotome CUBE work?
The two most common treatments this device is used for include tooth extractions and preparation for dental implants. During intra-operative phases of care, (or during the actual procedure), the device selectively cuts away fibers that hold the tooth in bone and preserves the bone.
To accomplish this, the device regulates pressure using its proprietary Newtron® technology. In layman’s terms, this sophisticated hardware alternates between low and high intensity to ensure all healthy bone and soft tissue is maintained. Not only can we at Edison Prosthodontics better preserve your existing oral structures, but we can also improve the healing of these areas dramatically compared to traditional methods.
How Does It Benefit Patients?
When patients experience the Piezotome CUBE, they’ll have a much better understanding of why Dr. Shah brought it to his practice in the first place. One of the most notable benefits is it removes the need for forceps and excessive force during extractions, helping to keep the surrounding bone as whole and healthy as possible (and therefore better suited to receive a dental implant.) This is especially important if the dentist intends to place a dental implant immediately, a common practice for those looking to replace teeth as soon as their previous ones have been extracted. Even so, better conservation of the bone allows for a better long-term outcome of implant treatment.
Additionally, the Piezotome CUBE helps patients:
- Facilitate faster recovery
- Lessen swelling following surgery
- Reduce the need for post-op prescription painkillers
- Minimize trauma of the surrounding bone and gums
- Gain a far more comfortable dental experience
