  • Publication number: 20170258486
    Abstract: An insert for use with a vibrating surgical tool has a proximal end for mounting to the vibrating surgical tool and a shaft extending from the proximal end. A head is mounted to the shaft, is curved along the longitudinal axis, and the terminal end thereof defines an edge for disposing against an incision between bone and periosteum. A passage is formed through the shaft for water to be forced through the passage and out of apertures formed on opposite sides of the insert. The edge is formed on the terminal end of the head, which is formed on a curve from one lateral side to an opposite lateral side. The edge extends from a front face to a tapered rear surface. A front face of the head forms an angle with a longitudinal axis of the shaft.

  • Publication number: 20100167235
    Abstract: A handpiece (1) is described for making holes in bone tissue including a surgical tool (3; 103) provided with a tip or head (40; 140) able to make a hole in the bone. The handpiece works by ultrasound, the tip (40; 140) of the tool includes a plurality of cutting elements (43) defining the profile of the hole to be made in the bone, and in the body of the tool there is provided a main channel (36) which ends in an outlet hole (44) opening in the tip of the tool (40; 140) for the passage of a cooling fluid, so as to cool the work area affected by the tool tip.

  • Publication number: 20070015102
    Abstract: An implant site preparation method comprising the following steps: lifting of the muco-periosteal flaps (9, 10) of the operating area, so as to expose an area of bone (11) in which the procedure is to be performed; application of a tip (35) of an insert (3) of an ultrasound handpiece (1) to said involved area of bone (11); vibration of said tip (35) at ultrasound frequency and simultaneous irrigation of said involved area of bone (11) with cooling fluid through a channel which passes through said insert and opens in the tip of said insert; and application with the hand on the handpiece of a light pressure combined with an angular oscillating movement, so that the tip (35) of the insert presses on the bone cortex (11), in the area chosen for the implant site, until a hole (12) is obtained of a suitable depth for the length of the chosen implant.
