Surgeon Benefits
- Implants have a three-sided trocar cutting tip and a finely machined threaded section, specially designed to guarantee good purchase in cancellous bone
- The proximal portion of each implant consists of a smooth shaft, the diameter of which is greater than that of the threaded section
- The chamfer at the intersection of the threaded portion and the smooth shaft functions to maintain fracture reduction
- No predrilling or pretapping required
- Saves time
- Holding power in bone allows joy stick manipulation of fragments prior to insertion of second implant
