Developing New Implant System: Ideal Diameter of Drills?
Last Updated: Nov 14, 2011
Dr. K asks:
I am developing a new dental implant system and have been working on this for the last couple of years. I am developing a new cylinder shaped implant with parallel walls. I need some suggestions concerning the diameter of the osteotomy drills with respect to the implant fixtures. What should be the ideal diameter of the osteotomy drill with respect to the diameter of the implant? The articles in the published literature really have conflicting results in this area.
