Summary

In both surgical and nor surgical tooth extractions, the first phase is done by syndesmotomy. This procedure allows to interrupt the fibers of the periodontal ligament. Traditionally, syndesmotomy is done by manual instruments. Usually, the manual approach leads to the loss of the vestibular cortical plate due to the size of those instruments.

The piezoelectric surgery device provides an alternative to manual instruments. Its advantages are: selectivity for hard tissues; better cut control; protection of soft tissue, vessels and nerves; post-op pain and discomfort reduction.

The aim of this study is to evaluate a piezosurgery driven syndesmotomy technique during tooth extraction.
