Supertack

DISCOVER THE Supertack LINE

Function has created form

During the design phase of this innovative product, our goal was to create a fixation tack that would be easy to place in any type of bone and capable of securely immobilizing the membranes currently used in GBR (both resorbable and non-resorbable), as well as meshes. Additionally, thanks to its blue coloring, the tack is easy to locate after the designated Bone Regeneration period.

The Supertack tack features a 2.5 mm diameter head, a fairly common size for this type of device. The shaft of the tack has a tapered shape, which allows for quick and easy removal. Moreover, the blue coloring makes it easier to identify under soft tissue during removal.

Supertack tacks are packaged in a cleanroom after undergoing plasma surface cleaning. They are sold in a sterile state.

Sterile tacks

Supertack tacks are packaged sterile in a cleanroom. For this reason, they are sold in packs containing a limited number of pieces, in order to avoid waste.

Surface cleaning with plasma

The plasma cleaning treatment removes all surface residues, preventing contamination caused by airborne dust and microorganisms.

Anodizing

Supertack tacks undergo anodization with cobalt blue and gold finishes. These colorations enhance their visibility under soft tissues, making removal easier.

Questions&Answers

What material are the tacks made of?

The tacks are made using TiGr5 titanium certified to ASTM F136. The ASTM F136 standard specifies that this type of titanium is suitable for the production of medical devices to be implanted in the human body.

Is the blue and bronze coloring of the Supertack and Specialist tacks obtained using dyes?

NO! The blue and bronze color of the surface of the tacks is obtained through a titanium anodization process. Anodizing titanium creates a controlled oxide layer that, when exposed to light, creates a refraction effect (like a rainbow), causing our eyes to perceive different colors.

Can the coloring of the tacks be toxic?

NO! Since no dyes are used, there are no toxic elements on the surface, only titanium oxide. Titanium oxide is the key element that makes titanium materials extremely biocompatible.

Can Ti Gr5, being a titanium alloy, be toxic?

NO! Biocompatibility is ensured by compliance with the ASTM F136 standard (American regulatory system).

Why is the tack applicator made of two parts?

The applicator consists of the handle and the tip, allowing for the replacement of the tip in case of damage. Different tip types are also available to meet any technical requirements from surgeons.

Should the tip be replaced frequently?

NO! The tips are made from special stainless steel alloys that ensure excellent durability for use.

When can the tacks be removed?

When the bone graft has fully healed. There is no time limit, as the titanium used is classified for implant use.

What can I use to insert the tacks in the anterior area on the lingual side?

For this area, a specific tool has been created: the “lingual applicator.”

Is a wide opening required to remove the tacks?

NO! To remove the tacks, only a very small incision is required, through which the pins can be slid out.
