Advanced Surgical Precision with Piezoelectric Technology
Gentle, Precise, and Safer Dental Surgery with the Surgical Piezo
At Denta Dental of Odessa, we believe in delivering care with precision, safety, and patient comfort in mind. That’s why we’ve invested in piezoelectric surgical technology — also known as the surgical piezo — to enhance the way we perform oral and periodontal surgery.
Unlike traditional rotary instruments, the surgical piezo uses ultrasonic micro-vibrations to cut hard tissues like bone while preserving soft tissue, nerves, and surrounding structures. It’s the modern solution for minimally invasive dental surgery, designed to improve outcomes and recovery time.
What Is a Surgical Piezo?
A surgical piezoelectric device uses controlled ultrasonic vibrations to gently and precisely cut bone tissue. This advanced technology is ideal for:
Tooth extractions
Sinus lifts
Bone grafting
Implant site preparation
Cyst or lesion removal
Crown lengthening
Periodontal bone surgery
Unlike high-speed rotary drills, the piezo targets only mineralized tissue (bone), leaving soft tissues like gums, nerves, and blood vessels unharmed — making surgery safer and more predictable.
Benefits of Piezo Surgery Over Rotary Instruments
1. Greater Precision and Control
The ultrasonic micro-vibrations allow for extremely precise bone cutting, minimizing unnecessary tissue removal and improving surgical outcomes.
2. Preservation of Soft Tissue
One of the most significant advantages is that the surgical piezo does not damage soft tissue, reducing the risk of nerve or membrane injury — especially in sensitive areas like sinus lifts or nerve-adjacent extractions.
3. Less Bleeding and Swelling
The piezo helps seal small blood vessels during surgery, leading to cleaner procedures, less bleeding, and faster healing.
4. Improved Patient Comfort
Because it’s gentler than traditional drills, piezo surgery often results in less postoperative pain, swelling, and trauma.
5. Faster Recovery
Minimally invasive techniques lead to a quicker recovery time and reduced need for pain medication.
6. Ideal for Complex Cases
For procedures near nerves, the sinus floor, or delicate bone structures, the piezo offers safe and predictable resultswhere rotary instruments may pose greater risks.
