Karl Schumacher BionikTI Scalers and Curettes are crafted from the same titanium alloys used to manufacture implants and abutments. The BionikTI hygiene instruments are 13X stronger than a plastic or resin based curette, giving them the strength needed for even the toughest debridement; it also means that the tips of the Karl Schumacher BionikTI Scalers and Curettes are honed to be 30% thinner than other implant hygiene instruments, giving you superior access.
The combined attributes of strength and biocompatibility together give you an instrument that performs just as well as a stainless steel instruments, but with the safety and capabilities you need for the cleaning of exposed implant components and preserving the mucosal peri-implant tissue. In fact, BionikTI Hygiene instruments are sharp, strong and effective enough that you can use them in lieu of traditional stainless steel hygiene instruments!
