METHOD AND DEVICE FOR CAUSING TOOTH MOVEMENT

摘要

A device for increasing movement of a tooth in a jaw includes a handle, an elongate member extending from the handle, a screw tip at a distal end of the elongate member, and a sleeve. The screw tip is configured to drill into cortical bone of the jaw to increase movement of the tooth. The sleeve is configured to move along the elongate member to vary the length of exposed screw tip.
