TKW-Research-Group is worldwide leading the development of tools
and surgical procedures for
ultrasonic surgery applications in oral and maxillofacial surgery
and design of dental implants.
was founded in 2005 for clinical research and development of minimal invasive surgical techniques.
Ethical and medical considerations demand minimal invasive surgical treatments especially in oral and maxillofacial surgery and dental implantology with least risk of failure. Ultrasound technology for guided bone-management and biological implant designs are the key.
Prof.Dr.Dr. Angelo Troedhan (AT), Prof.Dr. Andreas Kurrek (DE) and Prof.Dr. Marcel Wainwright adopted ultrasound technology from the very first beginning and teamed up to investigate it´s advantages in clinical studies and to set evidence-based new surgical gold-standards.
The most atraumatic sinuslift with the least risk of sinus-membrane perforation
Our first development was a revolutionary ultrasonic hydrodynamic technique for sinus-floor-elevations that will replace classic surgical sinuslift-procedures in the future.This application was developed in cooperation with Satelec-ACTEON/FR for the Piezotome.
using the innate biology of natural bone-fracture healing
Our latest development is a revolutionary technique for splitting and widening narrow alveolar crests that will replace classic surgical procedures in the future. This application was developed in cooperation with Satelec-ACTEON/FR for the Piezotome.
The Q1-implant was the first implant-type for immediate loading with still unmatched primary stability in bone.
The more surgical and prosthetic steps in the workflow, the higher the risk of errors and complications. We kept surgical and prosthetic steps as simple as possible for the implantologist and his dental technician, featuring the unified grindable Q-Cone-abutment for all types of Q-Implants (Q1, Q2, QK, QZA). From insertion to prosthetic treatment the Q-implants come as close to a natural teeth prepared for crowns as possible.
and teach the new gold-standards of oral and maxillofacial surgery and dental implantology worldwide
