How many times has a patient asked you what that plate with the wire attached that you just placed under his shoulder was for? It is a hard question to answer. Say goodbye to all the limitations of "monopolar"! Bident is one the most extraordinary and useful technologies introduced to dentistry in recent years. This unit's multipatented waveform technology has been used by more than 90 percent of the world's neurosurgeons and many other medical specialties on a daily basis for more than 15 years.
This unit is truly amazing! It allows you to do things that you never dreamed possible with an electrosurgery tip. Since the electricity is confined to the electrodes, there is no current spread to the patient's body.
The Bident really shines when you begin cutting tissue! You will not notice the "drag" usually associated with your "monopolar" unit. As the tip moves smoothly through the tissue, you will notice that there is no charring and no heat. There is, however, a nice, clean cut. The tissue does not stick to the probe, so you don't have to wipe the probe continuously. Unlike your "mono polar" unit, the Bident can cut or coagulate in a wet field (in fact, it works better in a wet field). You can use it to cut around implants, crowns, and bridges without worrying about touching metal, because there is no spark and no tissue damage. Use the Bident to cut right to the bone without any worry of bone necrosis or sloughing.
With Bident, there are no restrictions with pacemakers or other electronic devices. The Bident system is more like cutting tissue with a scalpel, but without the bleeding. I find this system to be much more effective, more precise, safer, and much less expensive than any laser system on the market today. There are many tips available for any surgical procedure you can think of. You must have this system in your office! You will find many more uses than I have described here, and you will find yourself using it every day in many ways. Bident is FDA- and ADA-approved and has a no-questions-asked, 30-day return policy.
