JullDent190 Zygoma Retractor
- The Zygoma Retractor is mainly used for the region of the lateral teeth in the upper jaw.
- It is meant for the atraumatic holding of the prepared mucoperiosteal flap which is usually retracted in the area of the crista-zygomatico-alveolaris. The crista often develops a distinctive osseous bow which makes it impossible to hold it away with a straight retractor.
- This instrument is of great advantage especially during operations like the direct sinus lift, big augmentative interventions or other operations in the area from the cuspid to the rear lateral teeth.
- Because of the three dimensional arrangement of both retracting elements of this zygoma retractor, the mucosa is retracted safely and a trauma due to continuous slipping is excluded. Of course, this retractor can be used for anatomically similar bone structures for safe and atraumatic workings.
