SKU: DRILLSTOP
Placement of the screw is a challenge in that the gliding hole has to cross the fissure to penetrate into the far condyle. This may be achieved by imaging or by careful pre-measurement and the use of drill stops. Drilling to a pre-measured depth can be a challenge even with a ‘C’ arm! A more reasonably priced option is to use a drill stop which is tightened onto the drill bit at the required depth. The Set includes 4 Stops to cover all the standard drill sizes: 2.0 2.5 2.7 3.2 3.5 4.5mm. The stop is tightened onto the drill bit using the hex driver provided.
