METHOD AND DEVICE FOR EFFICIENTLY ANCHORING AN IMPLANT, AND METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PROMOTING GROWTH OF BONE TISSUE

摘要

A method for producing growth of bone tissue in man or in animals consists in releasing a flap from the bone tissue in the area where growth is to take place, a bleeding being produced. Then, the flap is put back over the bone tissue and maintained at a distance therefrom, whereby a space for the blood from the bleeding is formed between the bone tissue and the flap. A device for implementing the method consists of a tissue-compatible and inert material and comprises a domed, perforated element of slight thickness and attachment means. A device for efficiently anchoring an implant (5) in bone tissue (6) has the shape of a perforated calotte (1), the lower periphery (2) of which defines a surface much larger than the cross-sectional surface of the implant (5). Further, the device is formed with an opening (3) which enables it to be mounted on the implant. A method for securely anchoring an implant is also described.
