ABSTRACT:
A dental instrument for facilitating the selection and implantation of a generally U-shaped denture-supporting implant frame with bendable side arms. The instrument is generally similar to bow dividers, but is provided with an extensible calibrated distance bar which is supported for longitudinal adjustment in a median plane perpendicular to the plane of the main divider legs for movement parallel thereto, the distance bar having a pointed depending arm to locate a front center point on a patient's mandible adapted to receive an implantable front lug on the implant frame. This enables necessary data to be obtained for selecting the proper size of implant frame and for shaping the side arms of the implant frame so that they correspond with the shape of the patient's mandible.
