Title:
JAWBONE CUTTING APPARATUS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/191885
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention provides a jawbone cutting apparatus comprising a bone cutting tool for cutting a jawbone and a tool propulsion machine for applying a forward propulsive force to the bone cutting tool. The bone cutting tool is loaded in the tool propulsion machine such that the bone cutting tool can advance forward, and the tool propulsion machine receives and supports the bone cutting tool. According to the present invention, a cutting procedure for a jawbone, more specifically, a cortical bone can be performed fast and precisely, and the visual fear and pressure for a jawbone cutting procedure, which a patient may feel, can be largely reduced. Further, a forward-advancing distance of a bone cutting tool can be adjusted, so that the apparatus can stably perform a jawbone cutting procedure, such as a cortical bone resection, at a depth suitable for a patient's anatomical structure and a purpose of the procedure.
