In dental implantology, Pterygoid Bone Osteotomes are essential tools that enhance the precision and reliability of the implantation process. These instruments are designed for challenging anatomical regions, specifically within the posterior maxilla.
Overview of GDT Pterygoid Bone Osteotomes
The Pterygoid Bone Osteotomes are crafted from high-grade stainless steel, ensuring durability and reliability. The set includes two osteotomes:
- The first osteotome, with a sharp tip and a diameter of Ø2.0mm, creates the initial hole after the pilot drill. This tool navigates through the cortical bone to the pterygoid bone, establishing a pathway crucial for implant stability.
- The second osteotome, featuring a concave tip and a diameter of Ø3.0mm, efficiently expands the implant socket, accommodating the final implant. Depth marks at 16.0mm, 18.0mm, 20.0mm, 22.0mm, and 25.0mm provide visual cues, ensuring controlled insertion depths.
Steps for Using Pterygoid Bone Osteotomes
Using these osteotomes involves several critical steps. After the pilot drill creates the initial pathway:
- Advance Through Cortical Bone: The Ø2.0mm osteotome is used to advance through the cortical bone to the pterygoid bone. The surgeon applies controlled pressure to ensure accurate progression without causing unnecessary tissue trauma.
- Expand the Socket: The Ø3.0mm osteotome further expands the socket, promoting optimal osseointegration by gradually widening the implant site. The depth marks aid in achieving the precise depth required for the specific implant.
Quality and Design
Manufactured in Israel and adhering to stringent quality standards, these osteotomes are integral to GDT’s Max/Basal Kit, which supports Basal/Cortical implant procedures. Their ergonomic design and biocompatible materials enhance the accuracy and safety of dental surgeries.
