Embodiment Construction

[0034] The present invention relates to bone fixation tools, and more particularly to specially designed bone plates and means for retaining bone plates during bone fixation procedures. The plate retaining device 1 allows the user to securely hold the bone plate 2 on the bone while passing drill bits and screws through the bone plate 2 .

[0035] In a preferred embodiment, the plate holding device 1 is a transbuccal holding sleeve and the bone plate 2 is a jaw plate. Transbuccal retaining sleeves are used to rigidly hold the jaw plate intraorally to manipulate plate placement and accurately pass drills and screws through the sleeves into the bone plate. figure 1 Shown is a preferred embodiment of the plate holding device 1, Figures 2A-2C A preferred embodiment of the bone plate 2 is shown. Such as figure 1 with Image 6 As shown, the plate holding device 1 comprises a tubular element 3 , an inner sleeve 4 and a rod 5 .

[0036] Such as Figures 2A-2C As shown, the board...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a transbuccal plate holding cannula used in osteofixation procedures. The transbuccal plate holding cannula of the present invention can be releasibly secured to a bone plate such that tools and fasteners may be passed through the plate holding cannula in order to secure the bone plate to a bone.

Description

[0001] Related Application Cross Reference [0002] This application claims priority to US Application Serial No. 11 / 349,559, filed February 8, 2006, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] In general, the present invention relates to tools for bone fixation. More specifically, the present invention relates to transcheek retaining sleeves. Background technique [0004] The use of plates for bone fixation is well known. Plates are used to stabilize, repair or correct the patient's bones. Fasteners such as screws pass through the holes in the plate to secure the plate to the bone. In order for the screws to fit properly, it is often necessary to drill holes in the bone. Drilling is done through the holes in the plate to ensure proper alignment of the plate to the bone. Accurate alignment of the holes in the plate and the drilled holes in the bone is important for proper attachment of the plate to the bone. Therefore, the plate ...
