The present disclosure provides a drill bit comprising an apical end, a coronal end, and a longitudinal axis extending between the apical end and the coronal end. The drill bit further includes a drill bit core extending along the longitudinal axis, at least two flutes, each flute being defined by a concave surface forming a recess along the drill bit core, and an apical end face at the apical end. Apical edges of the concave surfaces and an apical edge of the drill bit core define the shape of the apical end face so that the apical end face defines a profile of retention arms at the apical end, each retention arm being formed between the concave surfaces of adjacent flutes. The present disclosure also provides a method to create an osteotomy using a drill bit.
