TOUCHGRIP Design Concept

The TOUCHGRIP Design is the result of close collaboration between leading clinicians and instrument engineers, focusing on ergonomic refinement. It provides practitioners with a secure, non-slip grip that reduces hand fatigue during extended procedures. As a precision Osteotome Instrument, this item is particularly suited for sinus floor elevation, bone condensation, and implant site preparation techniques where fine motor control is critical. For a comprehensive overview of the full range and its clinical rationale, refer to the official TOUCHGRIP brochure (PDF).

Specifications: Helmut Zepf No. 47.748.31HZU

The concave tip cups the bone in front of it, so it is the geometry used for sinus floor elevation through the osteotomy (crestal approach) and for condensing soft bone without pushing fragments ahead of the instrument. Being straight, it is the pattern for anterior sites and open access. At Ø 3.0 mm it is a mid-sequence size, following the narrower osteotomes. The TOUCHGRIP handle gives a flat, tactile grip for mallet work.
