Semiautomatic device for in vitro/ experimental bone perforation in dental implant research

The present study presents a semiautomatic device developed to perform in vitro experiments using surgical drills for assisting dental implant research. It was built to perform tests independent of human direct contact, and contains an adjustable toolholder for engaging different types of implant contra angle hand pieces, in which different drills can be adapted. The researcher is able to make a range of adjustments on the machine, such as controlling the drilling force and depth.
