Abstract:
The invention relates to a medical instrument and more particularly to a system for repairing damaged bone structure. A hand-held instrument is formed with a plurality of channels allowing connection of the instrument to a source of laser beam, to a television monitor, to a vacuum suction tube, to a connector for delivering medication or bone sealant to the treatment area. A foot pedal allows a dentist or physician to control delivery of the electrical, mechanical, and vacuum forces to the damaged area, as well as examine and monitor the treatment procedure on a television monitor.
