Waldent Bone Expander Kit Set of 12 (K19/2)

Bone Expander Kit has been designed as a substitute to sinus osteotomes both convex & concave. Expanders are driven into the bone with a ratchet wrench or low speed handpiece. This decreases the surgical trauma of osteotomes. Bone expanders improve the clinical success by improving stability, maintaining bone density and increasing fixation.

Technique for expanding the atrophic alveolar ridge

• Lateral bone condensation technique – lateral compaction of the trabeculae in poor quality bone, greatly improves primary stability
• Technique is less traumatic for the patient than working with a hammer and chisel

ADVANTAGES OF BONE EXPANDER IN IMPLANTOLOGY:

• The coronal part of the expander is smooth, only the initial part being threaded. When the smooth part comes into contact with the corticalis, instead of penetrating into it, it displaces it, facilitating lateral expansion. 
  
  
• Uses an implantology micromotor for ridge expansion. Maximum control of the direction of insertion and of the torque(screwing power). 
  
  
• Use of the ratchet is the last stage of insertion of the expanders. It is possible to make a half or quarter turn at a time. 
  
  
• The bone expander technique is less traumatic for the patient than working with a hammer and chisel.
