Bone Collector

Description

Bone Collector

Autogenous bone is often already in the surgical field: in the chips released while a window is prepared, or along a nearby ridge. A dental bone collector helps the surgeon save that material instead of losing it to suction or irrigation. The supplier catalogue lists this piece within its sinus lift set, alongside the other instruments used for a lateral approach.

Where It Sits in a Sinus Lift Tray

During a lateral sinus lift, the window preparation produces small fragments of bone. So a collector placed on the tray beside the curettes lets the assistant gather them as the case proceeds. Later, that harvest can be mixed with graft material, according to the surgeon’s protocol. The collector is sold on its own, so you can add it to an existing set.

Checking the Shape Before You Order

The catalogue gives no written dimensions for this item. For that reason, please study the product photos to judge the working end and overall size. If a detail matters for your technique, our team can answer questions before you buy. Also, the separate bone collector with suction tube on our site is a different design, so compare both.

Handling Harvested Bone

Collected bone dries out quickly. Therefore, many clinicians transfer it promptly into a basin or bowl and keep it moist with saline or blood. Next, the chips can be combined with the chosen graft. Every such step remains a clinical decision for the operator.

Stainless Steel, Checked Stateside

The collector is surgical stainless steel. Our staff in the United States look it over before it goes into its pouch. It travels unsterilized, so the collector needs a full scrub and autoclave run ahead of its first sinus case. Any flaw that traces back to production is our responsibility: coverage lasts three years against manufacturing defects on this bone collector.

Steel requirements are listed in the ASTM F899 standard text. Visit the implant instruments category, keep harvested chips in a stainless bone basin, and browse our frequently asked questions.

This bone collector is meant for trained surgical teams. Our cleaning instructions and shipping terms explain what to expect.
