US Patent:
2014003, Jan 30, 2014
Filed:
Oct 7, 2013
Appl. No.:
14/047265
Inventors:
Yoh Sawatari - Coral Gables FL, US Michael Peleg - Aventura FL, US
International Classification:
A61F 2/28
US Classification:
623 1717
Abstract:
A method of fixating a graft to an area of deficient bone in the jaws comprising: exposing the area of deficient bone by incising and retracting soft tissue; selecting a drill bit having a diameter corresponding to the area of deficient bone to receive a graft; contacting the selected drill bit with the exposed deficient bone to form a generally cylindrical seat transversely into the side of the deficient bone for receiving the graft; selecting a cylindrical graft having a length and circular cross-sectional corresponding to the diameter and depth of the formed seat; fixating the graft to the formed seat with at least one screw; and closing the soft tissue to cover the previously exposed deficient bone.

Filed:
Feb 20, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/920633
Inventors:

Assignee:
UNIVERSITY OF MIAMI - Miami FL
International Classification:
A61B 17/16
US Classification:
606 80
Abstract:
A method of fixating allogeneic bone to an area of deficient bone in the jaws comprising: exposing the area of deficient bone by incising and retracting soft tissue; selecting a drill bit having a diameter corresponding to the area of deficient bone to receive donor bone; contacting the selected drill bit with the exposed deficient bone to form a generally cylindrical seat for receiving the donor bone; selecting a section of donor bone having a generally cylindrical shape and circular cross-section corresponding to said formed seat; fixating the donor bone to the formed seat with at least one screw; and closing the soft tissue to cover the previously exposed deficient bone.
