ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a tool to measure depth and width of bone cavities prior to and during oral implant placement. The tool includes a passive-depth gauge arm and an active spring caliper arm. The tool can be used to define the extraction socket for oral implant placement and allows measurement verifications after each step of the bone bed preparation prior to or during the actual implant placement in the extraction socket. There are multiple modifications of the primary design into separate embodiments to accommodate usage in different parts of the jaw and different points during the implant procedure.
