According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The Implant SecureLink system introduces a groundbreaking elastic retention chain designed to significantly enhance safety and procedural efficiency in dental implant and related surgical procedures. By tethering critical implant tools to the operator's finger via a comfortable, adjustable loop, this innovative system prevents accidental intraoral loss of small prosthetic components, such as hex drivers and abutment screws. Featuring a quick-release safety mechanism, the Implant SecureLink ensures seamless tool detachment and re-engagement without disrupting workflow. Fabricated from biocompatible and sterilizable materials, this system offers universal compatibility with various implant tools. Key benefits include prevention of instrument loss, enhanced grip and control, rapid retrievability of dropped tools, and an ergonomic design that preserves precision movements. The Implant SecureLink addresses a critical safety gap in implantology, providing a simple yet highly effective solution for minimizing procedural risks and improving operational efficiency across implant surgery and prosthetic procedures."
