ABSTRACT:
A radiographic depth gauge for precisely positioning dental implants in a jaw bone. The gauge is formed of a material which will show on an x-ray and is an elongated member with distance markings. The gauge is placed in a bore drilled in a jaw bone and an x-ray is taken in a standardized manner to show true dimensions of the gauge on the film relative to surrounding anatomical structures. The gauge both shows the depth and angulation of the bore relative to other bores and existing dentition.
