This before-and-after represents a set of devices from a clinical facility making the switch to Planatome and shows the difference between restoration and setting a new level of performance. After extended clinical use, this osteotome developed a curved over edge that made it not clinically usable. Traditional sharpening typically restores worn surfaces. Planatome advances them. Each instrument is refined at the near-atomic level to reestablish true edge geometry, remove defects invisible to the human eye, and deliver performance beyond new, supporting cleaner cuts, reduced tissue trauma, and lasting reliability. We appreciate the care team for their diligence in protecting patients and for trusting Planatome as they transition their instruments to a higher standard of performance.
