Product Details
The CeraTipā¢ instrument is made of a mixed ceramic composed of zircon dioxide oxide partly stabilized by yttrium and aluminum ceramic. Komet's CeraTipā¢ is a simpler and less invasive alternative to controlling gingival hypertrophy. The CeraTip tissue trimmer can be used for mucosal surgery applications, gingivectomy and can replace the use of scalpels and electrosurg.ā£ Other features and benefits include:
- Bleeding is reduced because, during operation, the instrument tip causes thermal coagulation, sealing the blood vessels
- Durable one-piece construction prevents premature detachment from a metal support
- Ergonomically constructed with no metal support to get in the way, the CeraTip can cover all tissue trimming indications
- The metal-free CeraTip is biocompatible and remains free of corrosion
Indications for Use
- Exposure of intra-osseous implant sites
- Dilation of the sulcas following crown build-up
- Exposure of deep cavities in the neck of the tooth
- Exposure of impacted teeth
- Removal of hyperplastic gingiva (papillectomy)
Recommendations for Use
- Use the CeraTipā¢ without water to allow the instrument tip to generate heat during rotation. This allows it to produce thermal coagulation and cauterize the tissue while trimming.
- Work gently in intermittent mode, exerting little pressure. Operate the instrument at optimal speeds of (clockwise) 300.000 - 450.000 rpm.
- Always clean the instrument with a nylon brush. Metal brushes can leave discoloration caused by friction on the instrument.
