What is Piezosurgery and How Does It Work?

Piezosurgery is an innovative technique that uses ultrasound technology to cut bone while preserving surrounding soft tissue. Unlike traditional dental drills and burs, which can cause unintended damage to adjacent nerves, arteries, and sinus membranes, piezosurgery offers unmatched precision and safety. This advanced method is commonly used for tooth extractions, ridge expansion, crown lengthening, sinus elevation, and dental implant site preparation.

At Middlesex Periodontics & Dental Implants, PC, Dr. Daniel Reich utilizes state-of-the-art piezosurgery technology to provide patients with a more comfortable, precise, and minimally invasive experience. By integrating this advanced system into periodontal procedures, we ensure better surgical outcomes and faster recovery times.

How Piezosurgery Enhances Dental Procedures

Piezosurgery stands out as a safer and more effective alternative to traditional surgical tools. This ultrasonic system allows for controlled bone removal, minimizing trauma and reducing the risk of complications.

Key Advantages of Piezosurgery:

  • Selective Hard Tissue Cutting – The ultrasonic waves target only bone, leaving soft tissues intact and ensuring greater surgical accuracy.
  • Less Bleeding and Swelling – Piezosurgery reduces damage to surrounding blood vessels, leading to minimal bleeding, less inflammation, and a faster healing process.
  • Enhanced Safety for Sinus and Nerve Procedures – Traditional drills can inadvertently harm delicate structures. Piezosurgery allows for safer sinus lifts and nerve-related surgeries.

By incorporating piezosurgery into our practice, Dr. Reich ensures that patients receive advanced periodontal care with reduced pain and enhanced precision.

The Benefits of Piezosurgery Over Traditional Methods

Piezosurgery is revolutionizing oral surgery by providing an advanced, patient-friendly approach to complex dental procedures. Patients who have previously avoided dental surgery due to discomfort or risks may find this technique to be a more tolerable and effective alternative.

1. Increased Accuracy and Precision

One of the main benefits of piezosurgery is its unmatched precision. Since only hard tissues (bone) are affected, delicate structures such as nerves, blood vessels, and sinus membranes remain untouched. This is especially important for procedures like sinus elevation and ridge augmentation.

2. Greater Comfort and Faster Recovery

Because piezosurgery minimizes trauma to surrounding tissues, patients experience less postoperative pain and swelling. The ultrasonic vibrations also help reduce discomfort during the procedure, making it ideal for patients who are sensitive to traditional drilling techniques.

3. Safer for Complex Procedures

Certain dental procedures—such as jaw reconstruction, implant site preparation, and periodontal surgery—require extreme precision. Piezosurgery offers a higher level of control, making it one of the safest methods for bone grafting and implant placement.

Piezosurgery is a versatile technique that is used in a variety of periodontal and implant-related procedures. If you’re considering dental implants or other restorative treatments, this advanced approach can improve both comfort and success rates.

Common Applications of Piezosurgery:

  • Tooth Extractions – Atraumatic extractions with reduced impact on surrounding tissues.

  • Crown Lengthening – Improves the health and aesthetics of the gum line.
  • Sinus Elevation – Enables safer and more precise sinus lifts for upper jaw implants.
