Improve your clinical efficiency

  • Simplified treatment
    Reduce the number of instruments and implant components needed in the procedure. With the tailor-made MONO Surgery Kit, your staff will find it easy to prepare for and handle implant installation.
  • Make savings
    Clinics that already use the minimally invasive MIPS technique have reported reduced surgical time, staffing and running costs3.


Discover how Ponto improves clinical efficiency.

Like its predecessor MIPS, the MONO procedure is a minimally invasive technique that eliminates the need for suturing by using a smaller incision. This means you can perform Ponto implant installation as an outpatient procedure under local anaesthetic for fast recovery and fewer complications. Free up your valuable OR resources, increase flexibility and give more patients access to life-changing Ponto treatment.
