We know that the simplicity of surgical processes often depends on the tools used. For this reason, we would like to present the improvements we have made to our surgical drills and drill stops: So your surgery is much quicker and safer, optimizing the workflow.
Surgical drills
The main change is that it uses the same design as a standard drill, adding a connector and centering device to house the drill stop, which increases the total length compared to the standard drill by a maximum of 10%.
Main features
· Color coding according to the implant diameter and the number of rings: -1x ring; standard drilling procedure indicated for bone type III-IV.
– 2x rings; drilling procedure complementary to standard indicated for bone type I-II.
· Laser drill depth markings in the cutting area, and laser marking of the diameter, length, and batch number, on its shaft.
· Reusable and sterilizable in autoclave. It is recommended to follow the cleaning and sterilization protocol indicated in the instructions for use of the product.
Drills stops
The main change is that the design has been completely modified; in other words, the stainless surgical steel ring with a set screw has been replaced by a medical grade 23 titanium bush anodized according to the AVINENT® color code for identification of implant diameters.
The new system of drill stops for traditional surgery provides better depth control for osteotomies and patient safety
The new system presents:
· Longitudinal openings or windows to facilitate extraction of the bone shavings generated during the osteotomy, and aid irrigation.
·Flange or cylindrical base in the lower part to aid assembly with the surgical drill, and its removal or extraction.
Main features:
· Greater control and simplicity in placement.
· Color coding according to the implant diameter and its corresponding surgical drills, for quick and easy identification.
· Laser markings for drilling depth and batch number.
· Reusable and sterilizable in autoclave. It is recommended to follow the cleaning and sterilization protocol indicated in the instructions for use of the product.
Box of drill stops
The main change is the new design of the box of drill stops, comprising a base (white) and a lateral sliding lid (transparent grey).
Main features
· Compact, ergonomic and attractive design.
· Dimensions: 120 mm x 104 mm x 30 mm.
· Specific, individual housing for each drill stop, which enables their no-touch insertion directly into the surgical drill.
· Laser marking as a guide for correct organization of the stops and guidance during their use.
· Greater control and reliability using the depth meter integrated in the box itself to verify the drilling depth, once the drill and drill stop have been mounted.
· V-shaped extractor integrated in the box itself for all diameters of drill stops.
· Tray/container (30 mm x 40 mm x 11.5 mm) integrated in the box itself for the used limiters.
· Easy to clean and can be sterilized in autoclave. It is recommended to follow the cleaning and sterilization protocol indicated in the instructions for use of the product.
