By MIS Implants Technologies Staff n Since establishing the U.S. dis- tributorship of MIS Implants Tech- nologies more than 10 years ago, CEO Motti Weisman has led the company to experience significant growth year after year. This year, however, is one with even greater potential as the company expands with new products and a growing team of outside sales representatives. One of the most exciting innova- tions that the company launched recently is the MGuide guided sur- gery system. It has already received enthusiastic reviews by the doctors who have used this service, accord- ing to MIS. There is no initial invest- ment in software, as it does not need to be purchased. Planning is done by the doctor and MCenter technicians. The doctor provides specific digital files and impressions or stone models. This data is transferred to the advanced MGuide software and a phone appointment is then scheduled between the doctor and the MCenter technician. At this time, the techni- cian “shares” his computer screen, so the doctor can direct the planning process. Once the plan is approved the surgical stent is then manufac- turedin-houseinastate-of-the-art3-D printer. Metal sleeves are attached, and the case is ready to be shipped. The MGuide surgical stent is uniqueinanumberofways,MISsays. The stent is designed to be as open as possibletofacilitateimprovedvisibil- ity and irrigation. Also, there are no “keys” through which the osteotomy istraditionallycreated.Instead,those metalsleevesarepresettotheprecise height to achieve the predetermined depth of the osteotomy. The implant itself can also be placed through the stent, if the clinician desires. Without those keys, there is greater access to the posterior section of the mouth. Additional information and videos can be seen at www.mcenterusa.com. The MIS regenerative portfolio has also recently grown. Partnering with TissueNet of Orlando, Fla., MIS has now added allograft products whichincludecorticalcancellousand cortico/cancellous products. These are packaged in vials ranging from .25cc (perfect for a small single tooth extraction) to 5 cc in volume. There are also xenografts well as synthetic products in its 4Bone line. The BondBone product, a unique biphasic calcium sulfate grafting material, is comprised of a proprie- tary combination of hemihydrate and dihydrate calcium sulfate powder. Preset seed particles allow it to set in the mouth without being affected by blood or saliva. It can be used as a stand-alone product or as part of a composite graft with other granular grafting materials. When used in the latter manner, it acts like a cement, bonding the normally transient parti- cles to the recipient site. TheMISsalesforcealsosawexpan- sion during the past year as new ter- ritories were added in multiple states. Along with new field representatives, the sales management team has also grown. Three new regional managers have been added to oversee local rep- resentatives. All regional managers came to the company with strong den- tal implant management experience and are an excellent resource for the newer as well as experienced reps.
