Learning Objectives:
Upon completion of this CE webinar, the student will be able to:
• Understand the difference between cutting bone with a conventional bur, bone saw, and piezoelectric technology.
• Identify which piezoelectric tips are appropriate for each procedure.
• Demonstrate settings for different densities of bone found in the mouth.
• Explain how using Piezotome 2 will conserve bone harvesting for block grafts compared to a conventional rotary instrument.
• Appreciate the safety of using Piezotome 2 close to vital soft tissue structures including the posterior superior alveolar artery and the mandibular canal.
• Understand how to minimize sinus membrane perforations by using Piezotome 2 to make the lateral window for a sinus bone graft.
• Compare removing a failing implant or tooth with a trephine or rotary instrument vs. Piezotome 2.
Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.
