B.E.B. Technique
Bone Expansion with Bending
(of Cortical Bone)
The Strong Points
– Developed with structural considerations and mechanical analysis of alveolar bone
– May effectively minimize the need for GBR
– May minimize damage to anatomical structures
In the past, when the width of the bone was too narrow and it was difficult to place the implant, various methods were used to widen the width of the bone and implant the implant. The methods commonly used to widen the bone were to expand the bone in the direction of MESIODISTAL after the gingival incision, or to enlarge the bone using osteotomes. Most methods required bone healing and therefore a long healing period.
B.E.B TECHNIQUE is a method of expanding the bone using the IBS MAGIC EXPANDER (Star Cone Device), which can be worn with a light tap. It aims to spread out the burden on the bone morphology organization as much as possible, while minimizing the damage in the bone to receive the surgery. This way, the effect of tightening the bones as they are in the implant is improved, so that a better implant can be obtained.
Angled Hand Lever and Tapping Instrument Instructions
For use with the Magic Expander, Magic Split, Magic Sinus Lifter, and Bone Pusher.
To dismount instrument from hand lever, pull back the connection lock and pull out the instrument from the connection groove.
Precautions for using the B.E.B Technique
1. Two stage surgery must be performed.
Initial stability decreases due to bone resorption from the inside of placement hole.
2. Give at least 5 months for bone healing. Early loading is not recommended.
Give sufficient amount of bone healing time as bone resorption area of inside of placement hole is large.
3. Check for any fractures and use bone grafting material in the case of fracture.
Give some space for cortical bone healing.
4. Only use wrist action when using hand mallet. (soft tapping).
Strong strikes will lead to excessive loading that may cause bone fracture.
