Bonart Electrocautery Machine:

Electrocautery uses electrical current to heat a metal wire that is then applied to the target tissue in order to burn or coagulate the specific area of tissue.

It is not used to pass the current through tissue, but rather is applied directly onto the targeted area of treatment.

Using this technique, heat is passed through a resistant metal wire which is used as an electrode.

This hot electrode is then placed directly onto the treatment area destroying that specific tissue
