- Controlled tunneling access – Supports minimally invasive periodontal and mucogingival procedures without wide flap creation
- Dedicated 5-instrument sequence – Includes specialized tools for sulcus detachment, tunnel preparation, papilla management, and tissue release
- Delicate working ends – Designed for precise movement in thin phenotypes, small areas, and limited-access soft tissue spaces
- Papilla mobility support – Helps clinicians manage facial and interproximal papilla release in appropriate cases
- OCTOPUS silicone handles – Textured anatomical grip supports tactile control, visual orientation, and rotational movement
- Cassette-ready workflow – Includes stainless steel cassette for organization, sterilization, and protected storage

The Supremo Tunneling Kit Ricardo Kern is a premium 5-piece instrument set designed for periodontal microsurgery, minimally invasive tunneling procedures, and mucogingival reconstruction. Developed around Dr. Ricardo Kern’s clinical workflow, the kit supports controlled sulcus detachment, tunnel preparation, papilla management, and soft tissue release without wide flap creation.
Each instrument has a focused role in the tunneling sequence – from delicate access in thin phenotypes to papilla elevation and final tissue release. Fine engineered stainless steel working ends support precise movement in limited spaces, while the orange OCTOPUS-style silicone handles provide secure grip, tactile control, and easy rotational handling during delicate surgical maneuvers.
The set comes organized in a stainless steel cassette for chairside workflow, sterilization, and protected storage – especially important for delicate tunneling instruments that should be handled separately from heavier surgical instruments.
