ABSTRACT:
Apparatus and method for precise bending the head, neck and body portions of metallic endosteal dental implants so that false teeth affixed thereto are properly oriented in the mouth of the patient. The apparatus includes a cam-bearing vise which permits rotational and angular bends of the head and neck portions both within and outside the plane of the body portion of the implant. In addition, a fixed-jaw vise portion of the apparatus permits bending the implant body to conform to the shape of the jaw. A bending lever adapted to fit the head portion of the implants, optionally in combination with one or more pointers and index plates, is used for precise rotational or angular bends of the head with respect to the body.
