IMPLANT HOLDER

摘要

The implant holder comprises a screen (21) comprising on one side a tissue-compatible fiber material (25) to which the body cells grow and on the other side a smooth contact surface (23) for the implant (10). A holding fixture (26) retains the implant (10) to the screen (21). The implant holder prevents the body tissue from directly growing to the implant, which would make exchange of the implant (10) more difficult. To exchange the implant the skin (16) of the patient is cut open and the holding fixture (26) is opened. The implant holder remains in the body while the implant (10) is exchanged.
