PerioLase® MVP-7™ TruePulse.

Cone Beam Tomography/3D X-rays.
Periodontics is a precision specialty, and cone beam tomography is becoming a standard diagnostic tool to ensure precise implant placement. For our patients’ convenience, AZPerio’s offices in North Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, Central Phoenix, Ahwatukee and Gilbert have ICAT units for cone beam tomography. The Cottonwood and Sedona offices have centers nearby with which we work closely.
Immediate Loading of Implants.
Implants, particularly to support lower dentures can often be loaded immediately with as few as 4 implants to replace all the teeth and provide non-removeable replacement teeth. This means that the denture can be screwed into or secured by the implants the same day allowing you to chew similar to when a full complement of teeth were present. There are various implant systems or brands that provide this service.
Piezoelectric Bone Surgery.
In surgery, there can be an advantage to having an instrument that is selective in what it can act on. Piezoelectric devices allow for cutting of hard tissue without touching soft tissue. This can limit trauma and complications. It has uses for extraction of teeth, flap surgery, and sinus augmentations or lifts.
