US Patent 10064707 Self-osteotomizing bone implant and related method

A bone implant includes a head and a core body extending from the head to a tip. An osteotomy blade extends outwardly from at least a portion of the core body to form a spiral thread. Channels form bone cutting edges of the implant. The implant, and particularly the osteotomy blade, is configured to self-osteotomize and direct cut bone into the channels to facilitate bone growth and grafting and integration of the implant to the bone.
