摘要:
A medical grade deformer, comprising: an axial member; and a pliable tube mounted on said axial member and adapted to be deformed from a first, narrower diameter, configuration to a second, greater diameter, configuration.
摘要:
Bioresorbable inflatable devices and tunnel incision tool and methods for treating and enlarging a tissue or an organ or a tube or a vessel or a cavity. The device is composed of a hollow expanding pouch made of a resorbable material that can be attached to a filling element. The pouch can be filled with a biocompatible materials, one or more times in few days interval, after the insertion of the device. While filling the pouch every few days the tissue expands and the filling material if it is bioactive start to function. The tunnel incision tool composed of a little blade that emerges from the surface of the tool in order to make shallow incisions in the surrounding tissue therefore enabling easy expansion of the tissue. This device and method can be used for example for: horizontal and vertical bone augmentation in the jaws and the tunnel incision tool is used to make shallow incisions in the periosteum when using the tunnel technique, sinus augmentation when the device is placed beneath the Schneiderian tissue, vessels widening if the pouch become a stent etc.

摘要:
An expandable dental implant which is less traumatically inserted and can immediately receive functional loading to support a dental prosthesis upon insertion into the patient's mouth. The expandable implant is constructed as an inflatable balloon, which has a first, relatively smaller diameter prior to insertion into the patient's mouth. The implant is provided with an insertion end, for insertion into a formed bore in the patient's jaw bone. Upon insertion into the bone, the balloon can be inflated into a second, larger diameter profile by filling the hollow interior of the balloon using an appropriate hardening material, which applies pressure against the interior walls of the implant, allowing the implant to inflate within the bone and to fixate. Upon inflation of the implant, a dental crown can immediately be added to the implant's attachment end.
摘要:
A special tube is disclosed for the insertion of materials inside the maxillary sinus in order to displace the Schneiderian membrane. The tube is connected to a source of a flowable material. The tube is inserted through the alveolar ridge beneath the maxillary sinus and when the flowable material is advanced through the tube the Schneiderian membrane is lifted. The tube can be part of a dental implant which is screwed inside the alveolar ridge.
