Peri-Implantitis Treatment

 

Rescue failing implants otherwise requiring extraction, bone grafting and replacement by decontaminating the implant surface with the DEKA Smart CO2 laser. It’s a simple way to enhance both patient care and implant practice profitability.

  • Decontaminates the implant surface
  • Does not transmit heat into the implant
  • Does not damage or surface modifications to the implant
  • Results in new bone formation on the implant
  • Saves patients from extraction, bone grafting & replacement surgeries

Why DEKA?

Powered by UltraSpeed

DEKA’s proprietary UltraSpeed pulse combines power and gentleness for quick ablation with no charring - just a small band of coagulation that seals blood vessels, nerve endings and lymphatics

With a peak power of 150W, the DEKA Smart CO2 has a very quick and precise ablation of soft tissue.  The UltraSpeed pulse creates a tail of energy after the short but intense peak pulse, designed with enough thermal relaxation time, to allow the surrounding tissue to dissipate the heat and go back to rest before the next pulse.

 

power graph

For example, at 100 hertz (100 pulses per second) and Level 10 (10% duty cycle) the laser is only on (t-on) for 10% of each of the 100 pulses and off (-off) for 90% of each of the 100 pulses. The time off provides the thermal relaxation time needed by the irradiated tissue to lose 50% of the delivered energy (heat), without any heat conduction to the surrounding tissues.

Why CO2?

The Erbium laser (2,940nm) has the highest co-efficient of absorption in water of any of the lasers used in dentistry, however there is so much absorption that there is no residual heat energy for coagulation in soft tissue. CO2 has a 98% absorption rate in soft tissue and the remaining 2% provides the lateral thermal spread that seals blood vessels, seals nerve endings and seals lymphatics.

 

CO2 graph

For any laser to be therapeutic it must be well absorbed by the target tissue. Since oral soft tissue is 90-95% water, CO2 (10,600nm) is the preferred wavelength for soft tissue procedures because of its superior co-efficient characteristics into water and excellent homeostasis properties.CO2 ablates tissue very efficiently and virtually no energy penetrates beyond 0.1mm17 while ND:YAG (1,064nm), with Melanin as its main chromophore, has a penetration depth of 3-4mm.
