2thlaserSpectatorNice use of the chisel Glenn.
I have done many of these, mostly with our Zed tips. Gentle energy, nice control around the implant. Easy stuff, and of course the healing is incredible. I have never had to use a topical using the zed tips with low power levels. I can see the need using a saphire chisels energy pattern. Nice, thanks for sharing!

Glenn van AsSpectatorHi Mark: What does the foot print of the Zed tip look like.
I just painted the topical on to make sure it was ok for the patient. I didnt figure that she would feel to much. Kinda made for some nice contrast on the photo!!
I have done this before wiith smaller 400 micron tips but the tissue is much more ragged. I like the chisel tips for alot of things because of the wide footprint. It is a very useful tip because of its broad surface.
Take care and thanks for commenting.

AnonymousGuestHi Guys, don’t know if you’ve tried this before or not but for those who haven’t, take some of your EMLA or other anesthetic cream( I use a combo of benzocaine,tetracaine, and lidocaine in phenylepherine) and keep some loaded in a Ultradent syringe. We use the same type you’d use for Astringident with the metal tips that are used for Ultradent’s Permaflow composite. Great way to deliver that topical into a sulcus or around an implant in a way that keeps it from going all over.
Glenn van AsSpectatorGood idea Ron…….I didnt do it this time but its a good idea……

Dan MelkerSpectatorGlenn,
Your threads have been so Biologically sound! It is really great to see your microscope show such sound trt. of different areas.
Do you ever have time to practice?
