Internal Pocket Technique enables bone grafting and
minimally invasive implant treatments without elevation
of overlying flap with crestal approach in case of cortical
perforation is expected and narrow alveolar bone. SURGICAL SYSTEM
PROTOCOL
Referring to the natural properties of periosteum, it follows that the adhesion force is less than the tensil force of the periosteum.
Periosteum is lifted by pushing the bone block in 4 directions. (superior, inferior, mesial, and distal)
New bone is formed following the GBR concept.
CAUTION
After exact measurement of depth to cortical perforation, perform drilling such that cortical plate is reached.
Detach the periosteum from the alveolar ridge, using the Periosteum Lifter. Make 4 detachments, mesial, distal, upper, and lower.
Additional final drilling to desired depth of placement after bone grafting.

External Pocket Tech
External Pocket Technique is suitable for minimally invasive
implant treatments improving the form of connective tissue
by using crestal approach and it can be applied in the case
of narrow ridge without elevation of overlying flap.
It is especially useful in the narrow ridge resulting from buccal
concavity and resolve the problem Magic Cuff can't cover.
SURGICAL SYSTEM
PROTOCOL
Make a 5mm incision where the crest lays. Make the incision concave towards the palatal (lingual).
Use the spoon excavator to detach a small portion of periosteum and insert graft until desired gingival shape is formed.
Drill and create the osteotomy when plenty of width is secured.
Place implant and close wound with a small suture. Depending on the situation, use the Omnivac to protect blood clots, or to protect and maintain the shape of the gingiva for 12 weeks.
