An autograft forming bone anchor is provided including an elongated anchor core having a tip at a distal end and coupled to a head at a proximal end, and a segmented helical thread defining one or more gaps therein, each gap defining at least a trailing wall, the trailing wall having a cutting surface including at least one cutting edge. A plane of the cutting surface that extends through a point of contact of the cutting surface with the anchor core and the cutting edge, is angled at an angle () with respect to a radius (r) of the bone anchor, and the bone cutting surface and the cutting edge are configured to cut bone and guide bone fragments radially inwards. Other embodiments are also described.

A dental implant having a substantially cylindrical shape with a longitudinal axis defining a longitudinal direction, including: a coronal section including a coronal end of the implant; a threaded region extending apically from the coronal section to an apical tip of the implant; and an internal blind bore for connection to a secondary part, including: a stabilizing section extending apically from the coronal end; and a drive and indexing section which extends apically from an apical end of the stabilizing section, which includes a plurality of connecting lobes having a concave shape and extending in the longitudinal direction, being interconnected by respective lobe linking areas, including: two convex sections extending in the longitudinal direction and adjacent to a respective connecting lobe; and a concave section extending in the longitudinal direction between the two convex sections. Further, a secondary part and an insertion tool of a configuration matching the dental implant.

An alveolar membrane includes: a connecting portion being provided thereon with a through hole for an artificial toothroot to pass therethrough; a capping portion having its one end connected to the connecting portion and including a plurality of openings; and a fixing portion being located at an opposite end of the capping portion and having at least one digit that has a tip to be fixed in osseous tissue or between osseous tissue and soft tissue. With the connecting portion and the fixing portion at its two ends both fixed, the alveolar membrane firmly holds the osseous graft in position.

A dental implant assembly may be provided with a spacer removably attachable to a dental implant, a cap removably attachable to the spacer, and a surgical barrier that may be at least partially disposed between the cap and the spacer. The spacer may include a first end configured to engage with the dental implant and a second end configured to engage with the cap. The second end may further include a tool connection region. The surgical barrier may include an outer membrane and an inner mesh enclosed within the outer membrane. A cap head may be provided with a lower surface configured to engage with the surgical barrier. A cap body may be provided with a threaded profile engageable with a threaded connection of the second end of the spacer. At least part of the surgical barrier may be sandwiched between the spacer and the lower surface of the cap.

A dental implant that facilitate insertion and can be used in all bone types. The implant includes a body having a coronal end, and an apical end opposite the coronal end. A tapered region may be adjacent the apical end. On the apical part one or more taps are provided so the tap is cutting when rotating, clockwise and counter-clockwise. The implant can have at least one variable profile helical thread that extends along the tapered region. The implant can have also micro-threads below the main threads, a gradual compressing tapered core, a self drilling apical end and a narrow coronal region.

A dental implant having a prosthetic interface in its cervical region, a core and at least one thread extending from the cervical region to an opposite apical region, the thread having recesses on which a cutting edge for cutting bone is arranged, the respective cutting edge is arranged in the thread direction at the rear side of the recess, wherein the respective recess comprises a cutting area at which the cutting edge is arranged and a compacting area adjacent to the cutting area for compacting bone tissue.

An implant for insertion within a maxillofacial bone of a patient including a tapered body and one or more threads formed along the body. The one or more threads on one or more lead threads include multiple thread forms including both three-dimensional stabilization thread and standard thread (e.g. v-thread, buttress thread, etc.) forms. The one or more threads including the multiple thread forms provides for maximizing the restriction of lateral movement of the implant within a full or partial osteotomy.

An implant for implantation into bone tissue includes an elongated body having an outer surface. The outer surface hast least one thread. The thread makes a number of turns around the body of the implant and includes a root, a flank and a crest. The root and a segment of the flank have a roughened portion compared to the crest. A method of forming an implant having a threaded outer surface including a root, a flank, and a crest includes treating the threaded outer surface at only the root and a portion of the flank while the crest remains untreated.
