摘要： A polyaxial locking screw system includes a bone plate defining a plate hole with an inner spherical surface and a relatively harder split polyaxial bushing with a outer spherical surface provided within the plate hole for receiving a bone screw. In one embodiment, the plate is formed from titanium alloy, while the bushing is formed from a cobalt chrome alloy. The outer surface of the polyaxial bushing includes a plurality of spikes. When the screw is inserted into the bushing, since the bushing material is considerably harder than the plate material, the forceful expansion of the bushing during screw insertion causes the spikes to penetrate into the inner spherical surface of the hole, thereby increasing the frictional engagement of the bushing to the plate to lock the screw at a desired angle.

摘要： A distraction assembly for automatically facilitating bone growth which may be required for the application of a dental implant is presented. A drive assembly is dimensioned and configured to be anchored within the mouth of a patient and includes a drive component and a timing assembly collectively disposed and structured to drive at least one displacement member along a predetermined path of travel, wherein the displacement member is connected to a bone segment associated with the implant site. The drive component and timing assembly are further cooperatively structured and disposed to cause incremental advancement of said displacement member along the predetermined path of travel and concurrent displacement of the bone segment relative to the implant site at a constant or otherwise predetermined rate.
