Orthodontic implant structure and orthodontic implant jig
An orthodontic implant structure (2) that is used by being implanted in bone in an oral cavity includes a first screw (6, 6B) having a screw body (6b) and an engaging portion (14), a plate securing implement (12, 13), a second screw, and a base plate having a first surface (4p) and a second surface (4q) and in which a first attachment hole (24A, 24B) and a second attachment hole (26) are formed.
DENTAL IMPLANT EVALUATION UNIT
A dental implant evaluation unit is disclosed and described. The dental implant evaluation includes a body portion having threads that mimic the general thread pattern of an actual dental implant, without attempting to copy any of the osseointegrative features of the actual implant. A threaded collar is associated with the body portion, and, in certain embodiments, a safety flange is screwed to the threaded collar. The safety flange prevents the dental implant evaluation unit from infiltrating the sinus of a patient when testing the fit of a maxillary implant. The dental implant evaluation unit can be used by a dentist to evaluate the proper size and fit for an actual dental implant by installing the dental implant evaluation unit, and imaging the same, prior to installing the actual dental implant.
Dental implant surgical guide and manufacturing method thereof
A dental implant surgical guide and manufacturing method thereof are provided. The dental implant surgical guide comprises a retainer, a guide portion, and an indicator. Said guide portion is located on either the tongue side or the palatal side of a patient, and comprises a guiding groove corresponding to an implant hole and an opening being connected to the guiding groove; said indicator comprises an extension portion and a terminal, wherein the extension portion is extended from the retainer to an implant platform of a missing tooth portion, while the terminal indicates a location of the implant platform. Therefore, locations of the implant platform and the implant hole of the missing tooth portion will be positioned by the dental implant surgical guide when placing the dental implant surgical guide on the missing tooth portion.
Fixation pin
A fixation pin for fixing a dental drill template. The fixation pin has a head having a bearing surface that is intended to bear at least partially on the drill template, or a sleeve provided in the drill template. The fixation pin has a rod having a shape of an essentially circular cylinder and extending from the bearing surface at an essentially right angle. The rod is intended to be inserted into the drill template or the sleeve provided in the drill template.
Device and method for dental procedure planning
The invention concerns a device for obtaining an occlusal registration of a patient; a method for obtaining an occlusal registration of a patient; and a method for dental procedure planning, such as dental implant planning. Radiopaque markers are advantageously applied to improve the devices, methods, and outcomes related to dental procedures.
DENTAL IMPLANT WITH CODED UPPER SURFACE
A dental implant for insertion into bone within a patient's mouth comprises a body and a scannable code. The body includes a bone-engaging exterior surface, an anti-rotational feature for non-rotationally mating with an abutment, and an upper region. The upper region includes an upper surface for engaging the abutment. The scannable code on the upper surface provides information concerning the dental implant. The information includes at least two features of the dental implant.
DENTAL DUAL-STRUCTURED MEMBRANE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING DENTAL DUAL-STRUCTURED MEMBRANE
Provided is a dental dual-structured membrane. The dental dual-structured membrane according to an embodiment of the present inventive concept includes a shielding portion for shielding a bone grafting material and an alveolar bone from the outside to prevent infiltration of other tissue cells, and an insertion and fixing portion connected to the shielding portion and inserted between a gum and the alveolar bone to fix the shielding portion, in which the insertion and fixing portion has a higher tensile strength than the shielding portion.
ANGULAR ABUTMENT FOR DENTAL IMPLANTS
A series of abutments for dental use and a method for selection an abutment therefrom and aligning the abutment in a patient mouth. The series includes at least three abutments. Each abutment includes a first mate of a polygonal rotation preventive adapter having an axis of rotation perpendicularly to a lateral cross section, and a support member extending from a proximal end of the first mate and having rotational symmetry to the axis of rotation. A projection of the support member on a plane of the lateral cross section in at least one abutment, is asymmetric with respect to angle bisectors and medians of the polygonal shape. An angle between a straight line extending from the axis of rotation to a reference point on a projection circumference of the support member forms a unique offset angle with a side of the polygonal shape per each dental abutment in the series.
Dental implant with coded upper surface
A dental implant for insertion into bone within a patient's mouth comprises a body and a scannable code. The body includes a bone-engaging exterior surface, an anti-rotational feature for non-rotationally mating with an abutment, and an upper region. The upper region includes an upper surface for engaging the abutment. The scannable code on the upper surface provides information concerning the dental implant. The information includes at least two features of the dental implant.
Method and system for generating a model of a subperiosteal dental implant device and customized implant head
A method for generating a virtual model of a subperiosteal dental implant device. The method comprises: obtaining a virtual mouth model of a patient providing a three-dimensional representation of at least a section of a jaw bone of a patient, using a non-invasive modelling method; positioning at least one replacement tooth in relation to the section of the jaw bone defined by the virtual mouth model; positioning at least one implant head at a respective implant position; and designing and generating a virtual model of the subperiosteal dental implant device having a shape at least partially derived from a shape of the section of the jaw bone defined by the virtual mouth model and at least a portion of each one of the at least one implant head extending from the subperiosteal dental implant device at the respective implant position.
