SafeScraper® TWIST
SafeScraper® TWIST provides an easy method for harvesting autogenous cortical bone, for use in grafted sites with a minimally invasive technique.
Easy to use, Safescraper® TWIST makes autologous bone always available in any condition, both for small and large harvests.
The exclusive cutting performance of the blade allows cortical shavings to be collected, while preserving maximum cell vitality, which is essential for graft integration. The bone collected is already combined with blood and ready to be positioned in the defect, or it can be temporary maintained in aseptic conditions in the transparent chamber.
