Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of positioning guide plates, and more specifically, relates to a positioning guide plate. Background Technology
[0002] Split bone block technique (SBB) is a modified form of autologous bone grafting. Khoury's continuous improvements to SBB have led to its widespread adoption. By dividing a thick mandibular cortical bone block into at least two separate blocks, the number of bone blocks available for reconstructing bone defects can be increased, thus reducing the volume of autologous bone required. This allows for intraoral bone harvesting in some cases, avoiding extraoral harvesting, reducing surgical trauma, and expanding the indications for the procedure. The combination of thin cortical bone blocks, autologous bone fragments, and granular bone substitutes can adapt well to bone defect morphology, even in cases of severe alveolar bone atrophy, and the volume of the grafted bone is flexible and variable. Furthermore, SBB accelerates revascularization and osteogenic formation of the grafted bone. Enhanced repair and regeneration, along with an increase in key osteocytes, leads to reduced bone resorption, resulting in long-term stable restoration of the alveolar ridge contour. Histological analysis of the osteogenic area six months after grafting shows homogeneous bone quality, high density, and active new bone formation.
[0003] Because the SBB technique requires removing a piece of mandibular bone and opening a second surgical area, it is highly invasive and causes significant swelling and pain in patients after surgery. Therefore, a few manufacturers currently produce allogeneic bone fragments that can replace the extracted autologous bone fragments for bone defect reconstruction.
[0004] To achieve better bone grafting results, bone grafts are typically first fixed to the alveolar bone, and then bone powder is used to fill the space between the alveolar bone and the bone graft to increase bone volume. The bone graft is usually fixed to the alveolar bone with bone screws.
[0005] Numerous problems have arisen in traditional clinical procedures. First, the lack of digital aids forces clinicians to rely solely on experience, hindering their ability to quickly and accurately determine the placement of bone grafts to ensure sufficient bone augmentation for implantation without compromising soft tissue tension. Second, the shapes of both irregular autologous and fixed-size allogeneic bone grafts may not perfectly match the curvature of alveolar bone, often requiring additional grinding and trimming, significantly increasing clinical workload and surgical time. Furthermore, current standard surgical procedures involve drilling holes in the bone graft and inserting one or more corresponding fixation screws, but accurately determining the length and orientation of these screws to avoid damaging adjacent critical anatomical structures is challenging. Finally, when simultaneously inserting one or more screws through the bone graft and alveolar bone, maintaining the autologous / pre-made allogeneic bone graft in its ideal three-dimensional position is difficult, leading to instability, positional shifts, and even bone breakage. All these issues can result in inaccurate placement of the bone graft in the ideal three-dimensional position, ultimately affecting the effectiveness of bone augmentation. Utility Model Content

[0050] In one embodiment, the distance between any two adjacent second mounting holes is greater than 2 mm, and the distance between any second mounting hole and the edge of the bone piece is greater than 2 mm.
[0051] In one embodiment, the positioning guide is used as follows: [1] In one embodiment, CT technology is used to obtain three-dimensional image data of the patient's alveolar bone. By analyzing and processing the patient's three-dimensional image data, the most suitable bone fragment shape for the patient is designed. Then, the bone fragment shape and the alveolar bone shape are combined to design a bone fragment guide. The bone fragment guide is divided into two parts: a first guide 11 and a second guide 2. The second guide 2 is used to cut the original bone fragment into the required shape. The first guide 11 is used to accurately place the cut bone fragment at the alveolar bone defect location. [2] In one embodiment, the original bone fragment is cube-shaped. The second guide 2 is used to cut the cube-shaped bone fragment into the designed shape. The second guide 2 is a groove-shaped structure, and its outline is referenced to the shape of the required bone fragment. On the two adjacent sides of the second guide 2, there are slots. The slots should be higher than the second guide 2, and the height depends on the thickness of the original bone fragment. When the original bone fragment is placed on the second guide 2, the original bone fragment should be flush with the slots. The shape of the second guide 2 should be consistent with the shape of the required bone fragment. During the surgery, the original bone fragment is placed on the second guide plate 2, and the original bone fragment is cut along the edge of the second guide plate 2 to obtain the desired bone fragment shape. The second guide plate 2 has a guide hole 22. When the bone fragment is placed on the alveolar bone, a bone screw needs to be passed through the bone fragment and screwed into the alveolar bone to fix the bone fragment. The function of the guide hole 22 is to position the second mounting hole in the bone fragment. The original bone fragment is placed on the second guide plate 2, and a drill bit is passed through the guide hole 22 to drill a hole in the bone fragment to obtain the second mounting hole on the bone fragment. The diameter of the guide hole 22 should be slightly larger than the outer diameter of the bone screw thread, usually 2 mm. [3] In one embodiment, regarding the first guide plate 11: the first guide plate 11 is designed according to the contour of the patient's bone defect area. The mounting surface of the first guide plate 11 matches the alveolar bone and can stably support the bone fragment when placed in the bone defect area. The first guide plate 11 has a first mounting hole 111 in the area near the alveolar bone crest. The first screw passes through the first mounting hole 111 and is screwed into the alveolar bone to fix the first guide plate 11. This prevents the first guide plate 11 from shifting due to external forces during surgery. The inner diameter of the first mounting hole 111 should be slightly larger than the outer diameter of the first screw, typically 2 mm. The upper end of the first mounting hole 111 is flat to allow the first screw to be screwed in smoothly without deflection. The surface of the first guide plate 11 has raised positioning bosses 12. There are usually multiple positioning bosses 12, at least one located at the crest region of the first guide plate 11, and the other two located on the left and right sides of the first guide plate 11 respectively. The protrusion height of the positioning bosses 12 is not less than the thickness of the bone fragment. During surgery, the bone fragment should be placed in the area enclosed by the outer surface of the first guide plate 11 and the positioning bosses 12. The first guide plate 11 has a first channel 112, which is a hollow structure and has an irregular shape. Its function is to prevent the bone screws from touching the first guide plate 11 and causing interference when fixing the bone pieces on the first guide plate 11 with bone screws.The first guide plate 11 has a second channel 113, which is a hollow structure located in the crest region of the first guide plate 11. Its function is that after the bone fragments on the first guide plate 11 are fixed with bone screws, bone powder can be filled between the bone fragments and the alveolar bone through the second channel 113 to form a support and maintain the relative position between the bone fragments and the alveolar bone to the greatest extent possible after the first guide plate 11 is removed.
[0052] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and substitutions should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
