Dental Implant Drivers - Surgical & Prosthetic Tools

GDT Dental Drivers are designed for the placement of dental implants and the attachment of prosthetic components. Manufactured in Israel from high-grade Stainless Steel, these tools provide the mechanical strength required to achieve the necessary torque during clinical procedures. The range includes both manual drivers and motor-mount adapters to fit various surgical protocols and handpieces.

Our drivers are categorized by their function: surgical drivers for implant insertion and prosthetic drivers for securing abutments, healing caps, and transfers.

Technical Specifications & Compatibility:

Material: Medical-grade Stainless Steel for durability and repeated sterilization cycles.
Connection & Platform Sizes: Our drivers are designed to support a wide range of implant platforms, including:
Internal Hex: 2.0mm and 2.42mm.
Conical Connection: NP (2.25mm) and RP (2.65mm).
Driver Types: Includes manual (handheld) drivers, ratchet-compatible drivers, and ISO-standard motor adapters.
Length Options: Offered in various lengths (Short, Medium, Long) to provide access to different areas of the oral cavity, including posterior regions with limited space.
System Integration: Designed for a secure fit with GDT Internal Hex and Conical Connection systems to prevent screw head stripping.

By using the appropriate GDT driver for each stage of the treatment, clinicians can ensure secure fixation of all implant and prosthetic parts.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Implant Drivers

What are drivers in dental surgery?

Put simply, drivers are tools that help align, implant, and secure dental implants and prosthetics in place. They can attach and detach various abutments and types of implants with impeccable accuracy and precision. Used in conjunction with wrenches, they place and connect the impact- tightening them securely into the jawbone using measured torque.

Drivers come in various shapes and sizes to work compatibly with different procedures and types of dental implants. Some are manually powered, while others are electric or air driven.

What types of dental surgeries use drivers?

The two main types of dental surgeries that use drivers are implants and prosthetics. Both work in similar ways and some can be applied in either procedure. With dental implants, the driver is a lot more involved in the actual setting and tightening of the piece into the jawbone- while drivers for prosthetics are primarily used to attach and detach abutments.

There are, however, many similarities between the designs. All types of drivers are made using high-quality stainless steel or carbon steel, and there are various lengths and widths available to enhance compatibility and versatility across surgeries.

Are there specific drivers designed for certain surgeries and procedures?

Yes, there are. Although many standard dental implants and prosthetics can be secured using general drivers, some cannot. GDT Dental Implants has developed specific drivers to work compatibly with less common implants and prosthetic pieces that don’t fit the usual kits.

There are also certain ranges built only for dental implants and others meant for prosthetic procedures. You can browse the individual collections separately for a better understanding of what tools are right for your practice and surgeries.

Is it best to buy a universal driver kit or individual pieces?

Dental driver kits come with the essential components required for most standard implant and prosthetic procedures. They have hex driver fittings as standard but can be converted to square settings on request. The kits include a manual driver adapter, hex driver adapter, and motor mount with dual fittings for 2.42mm internal implant fixation and 1.25mm prosthetic fixation.

They do not come with a wrench (which is required in most procedures to achieve the desired torque), and specialist implants- such as root-shaped, one-piece, or flexible neck- will require specific drivers designed to fit those styles.

The best solution is a combination of both. A kit gives you the essential core equipment, and then you can choose the best additions.

What is the difference between the 1.25mm and 2.42mm drivers?

The 1.25mm hex driver is used for prosthetic components, such as healing caps, abutments, and transfer screws. The 2.42mm driver is specifically designed for the insertion of standard platform internal hex implants into the prepared osteotomy site. Both are available for manual use or with a motor-mount connection.
