During implant placement, areas of deficient bone
or implant dehiscence may require guided bone
regeneration (GBR) to prevent future bone
resorption and implant complications. Autogenous
bone is still considered the gold standard, but may
be limited in amount and difficult to harvest.
BACKGROUND
INTRODUCTION
CLINICAL CASE
DISCUSSION
POSTER #
This presentation will demonstrate the use of a
newly designed drill [NeoBiotech Auto Chip Maker
(ACM); NeoBiotech, Korea] for collecting
autogenous bone with ease and in substantial
amount, in the posterior mandible.
METHODS
• After stable implant placement has been
achieved according to standard protocol, the
area can be assessed for deficient bone (Fig. 10)
• ACM drill and stopper are attached to a
handpiece used for implant osteotomy (Fig. 13)
• Autogenous bone is collected over an
edentulous mandibular area such as the ramus
(Figs. 13 & 14)
• The drill is used at 70 RPM without irrigation,
and may drill to a depth of 4 mm
• The bone is collected into the drill and trapped
by the plastic stopper (Fig. 15)
• The collected autogenous bone is placed in the
defect area and covered with a resorbable
membrane or periosteum, and the implants are
buried in a staged procedure (Figs. 17-20)
• Normal post-operative procedures are followed,
and the amount of bone regeneration can be
assessed at a second stage procedure 3 to 4
months following implant placement (Fig. 26)
RESULTS
• Healing following the surgeries was uneventful
• Implant stability was adequate
• At the second stage procedure (3 months), a
significant amount of new bone had formed
around the implant and previously deficient site
• This new device is easy to use, and can collect
large amounts of autogenous bone quickly
• The collected bone has a coagulated and spongy
consistency, as it is well hydrated with the blood
that is collected simultaneously
• Advantages of this graft include its osteogenic,
osteoinductive and osteoconductive properties,
ease of handling and precision of placement
• Possible disadvantages include diminished
space maintenance and increased resorption.
• __ year old Caucasian female, in stable systemic and periodontal health, requiring single implant
restoration for missing tooth #30
• Clinical exam reveals possible horizontal bone deficiency with adequate vertical height

CONCLUSIONS
This newly designed instrument is a useful tool for
collecting autogenous bone, which can be used for
GBR around moderately deficient sites during
implant placement procedures.
