In the past, straight or angled handpieces were used for osteotomy – traditional crown dissection. Today, instead of using the frictional force caused by the rotation of the drill, the advent of the piezotome perform this process by using ultrasonic vibration energy at high frequency and water.
2. Indication
Decayed teeth, no indication for retaining
Teeth with periodontal disease
Teeth with apical infection: check through X-ray, in case of less infection in the apex, it is possible to perform apical surgery.
Teeth that are misaligned
Orthodontics: In some cases, teeth need to be extracted to create the space for orthodontic treatment.
Trauma: cases of broken teeth, broken roots located too deep below the gums without retaining indications

3. Advantages of Piezotome Extraction
Selective tips: The effective tips of the Piezotome machine only affects the hard tissue, so it causes less damage around the roots when removing teeth.
Recovery: Because the Piezotome machine has selective tips, it limits soft tissue damage and help to recover faster than normal tooth extraction.
Swelling after extraction: Because Piezotome does not damage the tissue around the tooth root, it will minimize swelling.
