Definitions

  • the current invention is related to computer guided dental implantology and dental drill guides, and is intended to provide position and/or orientation control during implant drilling or implant placement.
  • the current invention is a device that will generate a signal (audible, perceptible, tangible or visible) to inform the user when the dental tool (implant holder/driver, drill%) reaches a predetermined position and/or orientation planned for dental implant planning software, e.g. in CT-based dental implant planning software.
  • FIG. 1 shows a typical swan-necked dental handpiece, which comprises a handle A, a neck B and a head C in which a rotary tool (e.g. drill, bur, implant driver) is fixed.
  • the handpiece is typically driven by a drive shaft or belt, which extends between the head of the handpiece and a remotely located drive motor.
  • the drive shaft transmits the rotational movement of the motor to the handpiece.
  • Handpieces can alternatively be driven by electric or pneumatic drive motors. Handpieces are used to drive tools during various dentistry operations, such as filling cavities, cleaning and the fitting of dental implants.
  • implant planning software in combination with surgical drill guides is known technology in dental implantology.
  • a CT scan is made of the patient's jaw to visualize the bone in which implants will be placed.
  • a scan prosthesis is worn during scanning to visualize the desired tooth setup.
  • dental planning software e.g. SimPlant, Materialise Dental N.V.
  • dental implants can be planned taken into account aesthetics (i.e. desired tooth setup) and anatomical information (i.e. bone quantity and quality).
  • a drill guide e.g. SurgiGuide, Materialise Dental N.V.
  • This drill guide fits in the patient's mouth and contains cylindrical tubes which guide the drilling actions in accordance to the treatment plan.
  • More advanced drill guides provide additional functionality, guiding the implant placement itself and guaranteeing the axial position (i.e. depth) of the implants relative to the gums.
  • Such depth control is commonly provided by means of a physical stop or by a mark on the dental tool which acts as a visual cue.
  • the surgeon still needs to pay attention in order to detect the contact between the guide and the tool e.g. drill, implant driver as soon as it occurs. Otherwise there is a risk that the surgeon forces the tool deeper than planned for example due to compression of the soft tissue underneath the drill guide.
  • the visibility of the marks can be poor due to for instance water cooling applied during drilling, limited opening of the mouth by the patient, etc.
  • detecting the alignment of the mark on the device with the top surface of the guiding tube in the dental drill guide is a subjective action, which can be influenced by the viewing direction of the surgeon.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide an alternative device and a method, particularly alternative systems and methods for computer guided dental implantology and dental drill guides.
  • An advantage of the present invention for some embodiments can be that a better depth control is possible and especially that a better position and/or orientation control during implant drilling or implant placement is possible.
  • the present invention is particularly directed to a device to be used in combination with a dental drill guide, and is intended to generate a signal (audible, perceptible, tangible or visible) to inform the user when the dental tool (e.g. drill) or implant reaches the desired position and/or orientation, i.e. corresponding with the implant position and/or orientation as planned in a dental implant planning software.
  • a signal audible, perceptible, tangible or visible
  • the device is particularly characterized in that it has a circuit having two electrical states connected to a signal generator.
  • a first state e.g. an open electrical circuit state
  • no signal is audible, perceptible, tangible or visible that is generated by the signal generator.
  • the circuit enters a second state, e.g. an electrical switch closes, when the desired position and/or orientation of the dental tool or implant (i.e. the one of the planning) is achieved, causing a signal to be produced.
  • a device for use with a dental drill guide and a dental tool or implant, comprising: a signal generator that generates a signal when the dental tool or implant reaches a desired position and/or orientation with respect to the drill guide.
  • the desired position and/or orientation with respect to the drill guide can correspond with an implant position and/or orientation as planned in a dental implant planning software.
  • the dental tool can be a drill for example.
  • the signal generator can be adapted to generate an audible, perceptible, tangible, or visible signal.
  • a circuit having a first and a second electrical state, wherein the circuit is connected to the signal generator, whereby in the first state, no audible, perceptible, tangible or visible signal is generated by the signal generator, wherein when the desired position and/or orientation of the dental tool or implant is achieved, the circuit is adapted for entering the second state causing an audible, perceptible, tangible or visible signal to be produced by the signal generator.
  • the first state can be in one option an open electrical circuit state.

  • This can be a separate power source (e.g. a battery) or can be the same source as the dental handpiece 1.
  • the components and the power source form an electrical circuit which can be opened or closed via the switch 5.
  • the design of the components is such that the device can easily be mounted on the dental handpiece 1.
  • the sensor component is designed to sense when a certain depth has been reached.
  • the sensor component is exemplified by the CG component 4.
  • CG component 4 has a cylindrical part 7 which fits to the bottom plate 8 of the head C of the dental handpiece 1.

  • Extending from the cylindrical part 7 towards the handle A of the handpiece 1 is a retention brace 12 which snaps onto the neck B of the handpiece 1 from the bottom side, directly behind the head C.
  • This retention brace 12 has two arms 13 engaging the neck B of the handpiece 1 on respectively the right and left hand side.
  • the bulk of the CG component 4 is made of an electrically non-conductive material.
  • the component is further characterized in that the bottom 1' of the cylindrical part 7 is equipped with two C-shaped conductive plates 14 (e.g. metallic material), one on either side of the central cylindrical hole 9.
  • Each C- plate 14 is connected to an electrical wire embedded in the CG-component 4.
  • the two wires run up respectively along either arm 13 of the retention brace 12 ending in small metal plates 15 at the outer end of the arms 13.
