As bone grafting and expansion procedures become more commonplace in implantology, Komet USA is introducing three new specialized instruments for the safe and effective removal of bone and soft tissue, according to the company.
Trepan burs: Trepan burs (TRT.205.045/055/065) are designed for the removal of bone blocks. The cutting teeth are arranged in pairs, allowing a nontraumatic treatment for optimal results. Large perforations within its working parts allow for an unobstructed view of the site and facilitate the removal of bone cylinders. Depth marks around the periphery allow exact determination of preparation depth.
Centering burs: Congruent centering burs (TRC.205.045/055/065) precede the trepan burs and allow for precise positioning and controlled guidance. The triangular tip optimizes centering and eases bone penetration, while the staggered (inclined) front toothing provides a nontraumatic treatment and the creation of a circular guide groove.
Bone chip extractor: The bone chip extractor (9126.204.042/060) is designed with a self-centering tip to ensure correct positioning at the operative site. This rotary extractor allows precise, gentle removal of bone chips, which can be collected and evacuated using any standard bone filter.
The MaxilloPrep instruments were developed in conjunction with Dr. Stefan Neumeyer of Eschlkam, Germany. They are available in both a stainless steel starter kit (Kit 4571, containing one of each instrument) or a complete kit (Kit 4572, containing all eight instruments, treatment tray, and container for sterilization).
