Abstract
Disclosed herein is a “condensing screw for an implant procedure.” A “condensing screw for an implant procedure” of the present invention is provided with: a screw main body which is inserted into an implant planting hole formed by an pilot drilling process, enlarges the implant planting hole to a size large enough to insert an implant fixture, and forms osseodensification regions on the side surfaces and the inside of the implant planting hole; and a shank which extends upward from the screw main body, is coupled to a driving unit, and transmits the torque of the driving unit to the screw main body. The condensing screw can enlarge the implant planting hole and perform the osseodensification process simultaneously, and can be used for maxillary sinus augmentation.
Claims5
A condensing screw for planting an implant comprising:
- a screw main body which is inserted into an implant planting hole formed by a pilot drill to enlarge the implant planting hole to a size that an implant fixture can be inserted into the implant planting hole, and which forms osseodensification regions on a lateral surface and an inner wall surface of the implant planting hole;
- and
- a shank extending from an upper part of the screw main body (110), the shank being configured to be coupled to a driving unit and transmitting rotational force of the driving unit to the screw main body, wherein the screw main body comprises:
- a compression screw thread part spirally formed on the surface of the screw main body in the opposite direction to a rotational direction of the screw main body to provide a cutting force in the insertion direction when the screw main body is rotated, and compressing bone powder by laterally pressing the inner wall surface of the implant planting hole;
- and
- a plurality of bone powder guide grooves formed to be spirally recessed in the opposite direction to the rotational direction of the screw main body at regular intervals along the outer circumference of the screw main body to the upper part from an lower part of the screw main body in order to guide the bone powder separated from the inner wall surface of the implant planting hole and water supplied from an outside to the lower part of the screw main body by the cutting force of the compression screw thread part.
