Abstract:
1. A method of inserting an implant, comprising: determining an insertion spot of the implant in a bone; forming a thin slit in the bone with a cutting tool in a mesiodistal direction of the bone around the implant insertion spot; widening a width of the slit by opening an interval in the bone by inserting a bone chisel in the slit; within said slit, forming a cavity having a first diameter by inserting a cavity forming tool having a thin needle portion in the implant insertion spot and pushing and rotating the needle portion into the bone; expanding the first diameter of the cavity by inserting the cavity forming tool having a thicker needle portion into the cavity and pushing and rotating the thicker needle portion into the bone; further expanding the first diameter of the cavity by repeating the insertion of the cavity forming tool into the cavity and pushing and rotating the tool, wherein the repeated insertion utilizes a progressively thicker needle portion, and wherein the repeated insertion, pushing, and rotating create larger diameters; and inserting the implant in the cavity having the larger diameter, wherein a patient's blood remains in the cavity and in the slit, and wherein due to the remaining blood, the bone surrounding the cavity and the slit is rapidly regenerated and bonded to the inserted implant, and wherein the inserted implant is firmly fixed to the bone.
