Abstract

The present invention relates to a method of inserting an implant in a bone. In the bone, a thin slit is formed by a cutting tool in a mesiodistal direction around an insertion spot of the implant. The thin slit is cut and widened by a bone chisel. Into the implant insertion spot, a tool for forming cavity provided with a needle portion is squeezed while being rotated, and a cavity is formed. In the formed cavity and the slit, blood of a patient is collected, by which a tissue is rapidly regenerated and bonded to the inserted implant, and the implant is firmly fixed to the bone.

Claims (26)

1. A method of inserting an implant, comprising:

determining an insertion spot of the implant in a bone;

forming a thin slit in the bone with a cutting tool in a mesiodistal direction of the bone around the implant insertion spot;

widening a width of the slit by opening an interval in the bone by inserting a bone chisel in the slit;

within said slit, forming a cavity having a first diameter by inserting a cavity forming tool having a thin needle portion in the implant insertion spot and pushing and rotating the needle portion into the bone;

expanding the first diameter of the cavity by inserting the cavity forming tool having a thicker needle portion into the cavity and pushing and rotating the thicker needle portion into the bone;

further expanding the first diameter of the cavity by repeating the insertion of the cavity forming tool into the cavity and pushing and rotating the tool, wherein the repeated insertion utilizes a progressively thicker needle portion, and wherein the repeated insertion, pushing, and rotating create larger diameters; and

inserting the implant in the cavity having the larger diameter, wherein a patient's blood remains in the cavity and in the slit, and wherein due to the remaining blood, the bone surrounding the cavity and the slit is rapidly regenerated and bonded to the inserted implant, and wherein the inserted implant is firmly fixed to the bone.

2. The method of inserting an implant according to claim 1 , wherein the cutting tool for forming the slit is any one of a diamond bar, a micro saw, a rotating diamond saw or an ultrasonic cutting tool.

3. The method of inserting an implant according to claim 1 , wherein the bone chisel for expanding the width of the slit is provided with a substantially rectangular blade, and a side blade is formed on a side face of the blade.

4. The method of inserting an implant according to claim 1 , wherein the cavity forming tools are a plurality of cavity forming tools having diameters of needle portions differing by 0.2 mm, and wherein the diameters range from 0.3 mm to 5.2 mm.

5. The method of inserting an implant according to claim 1 , wherein the bone is a jawbone, and wherein the implant is a dental implant.

6. A method of inserting an implant, comprising:

determining an insertion spot of the implant in a bone;

forming a pin hole having a small diameter at the implant insertion spot;

forming a thin slit with a cutting tool in a mesiodistal direction of the bone around the implant insertion spot where the pin hole is formed;

widening a width of the slit by pushing open an interval in the bone by inserting a bone chisel in the slit;

within said slit, forming a cavity having a first diameter by inserting a cavity forming tool having a thin needle portion in the implant insertion spot and pushing and rotating the needle portion into the bone;

expanding a diameter of the cavity by inserting the cavity forming tool having a thicker needle portion into the cavity and pushing and rotating the thicker needle portion into the bone;

further expanding the first diameter of the cavity by repeating the insertion of the cavity forming tool into the cavity and pushing and rotating the tool, wherein the repeated insertion utilizes a progressively thicker needle portion, and wherein the repeated insertion, pushing, and rotating create larger diameters; and

inserting the implant in the cavity having the larger diameter, wherein a patient's blood remains in the cavity and in the slit, and wherein due to the remaining blood, the bone surrounding the cavity and the slit is rapidly regenerated and bonded to the inserted implant, and wherein the inserted implant is firmly fixed to the bone.

7. The method of inserting an implant according to claim 6 , wherein the tool for forming a pin hole is a long-neck round bar.

8. The method of inserting an implant according to claim 6 , wherein the cutting tool for forming the slit is any one of a diamond bar, a micro saw, a rotating diamond saw or an ultrasonic cutting tool.

9. The method of inserting an implant according to claim 6 , wherein the bone chisel for expanding the width of the slit is provided with a substantially trapezoidal blade, and a side blade is formed on a side face of the blade.

10. The method of inserting an implant according to claim 6 , wherein the cavity forming tool is a plurality of cavity forming tools having diameters of needle portions differing by 0.2 mm, and wherein the diameters range from 0.3 mm to 5.2 mm.

11. The method of inserting an implant according to claim 6 , wherein the bone is a jawbone, and the implant is a dental implant.
