A dental implant includes a generally cylindrical body, an interior bore, and a non-rotational feature. The generally cylindrical body has a main-central axis and is formed from cold-worked, high strength, commercially pure titanium having an ultimate tensile strength of at least about 900 MPa. The generally cylindrical body has a proximal portion and an opposing distal portion for anchoring the dental implant in bone of a patient. The interior bore is formed in the generally cylindrical body and has (i) a bore-central axis and (ii) a threaded portion for receiving a screw that is configured to removable hold an abutment in engagement with the dental implant. The non-rotational feature is configured to engage the abutment in a non-rotational fashion.

The invention relates to an apparatus for releasable attachment of a removable dental prosthesis to a head part of an implant or of an abutment that can be anchored in an implant, comprising a retention matrix (1) having a receptacle that accommodates a circular-ring-shaped retention element (2) that has at least two clamping arms (22), which is disposed so as to be displaceable along a center axis of the retention matrix (1), wherein the at least two clamping arms (22) form a mantle surface that widens conically toward the outside, and that the receptacle for the retainer element (2) has two sections (14, 15) having a different inside diameter, against the transition of which the at least two clamping arms (22) lie. The invention furthermore relates to a dental implant system, having such an apparatus.

The invention relates to a dental component, such as an abutment, an abutment replica, an abutment blank, a customized abutment, a scan abutment, a digital transfer coping, an impression pick-up element, a healing cap or a driver, comprises a first indexing element and at least two second indexing elements having apical ends located apically of the apical end of said first indexing element. The invention also relates to a dental implant which comprises a dental component having first and second indexing elements and a fixture having third and fourth indexing elements, wherein the first and third indexing elements can only engage with each other after the second and fourth indexing elements have engaged with each other. The invention also relates to a fixture.

The present disclosure provides an artificial tooth root for implantation of an artificial tooth. The artificial tooth root may include one or more body portions having a cylindrical shape, and an extension portion coupled to at least a portion of a lower portion of each of the one or more body portions and extending from a lower side and a side of the one or more body portions. The above body portions of the artificial tooth root may include a plurality of body portions, and by coupling the extension portion to the plurality of body portions, it is possible to couple a plurality of artificial tooth root implants through the extension portions.

An implant fixture is disclosed. The implant fixture contains an elongated shaft section, a head section, wherein the head section comprises at least one concave area for bone growth therein, and a protrusion extending from the head section.

A coupling element for dentistry applications having a tubular body which forms an internal duct that is open outward at respective ends of the body. A first end forms a first inlet for the insertion in the duct of the head of a pin which can be coupled directly or indirectly to a maxillary bone tissue. The first end has a recess provided along the edge of the first inlet and forms a guiding portion for the insertion of the head of the pin; along a segment of the duct which is contiguous to the first inlet there is a protrusion which is substantially aligned longitudinally with the recess, for contrasting the accidental rotation of a ring provided with a respective discontinuity, which can be arranged in the segment in order to lock the head of the pin.

A zygomatic implant for supporting a dental bridge is provided. The zygomatic implant has a stem with a longitudinal axis having a threaded apical portion, an intermediate portion, and a neck portion having a seat for attachment of an abutment. The zygomatic implant has a head with a polygonal cross section that protrudes atop the neck portion, and two internal threads, each having an axis orthogonal to the longitudinal axis of the stem and a mouth located on a lateral wall of the stem. The two internal threads are arranged longitudinally offset along the longitudinal axis of the stem.

The invention relates to a dental prosthesis production device and method of manufacturing a dental prosthesis in which the dental prosthesis has an implant (40) and an abutment (10) which has a shape that is compatible with the implant (40) and on or to which abutment a dental structure (28) that is made of a dental material, in particular ceramic and/or plastic, and produced with the aid of a CAM process using rapid prototyping or compression molding technology can be secured. The abutment is mounted on the implant (40) via a releasable connection, in particular a screw connection (44), having an anti-rotation mechanism (50), and an anti-rotation device (groove 22) is formed between the abutment (10) and the dental structure (28). A selection device (66) is provided for abutments, said selection device allowing a selection of the abutment (10) for producing the dental prosthesis, optionally after reducing the abutment height to a specified value in a patient-specific manner, and a machining tool, in particular a milling cutter, or a CAM device is provided for shortening the abutment (10).

An implant fixture is disclosed. The implant fixture contains an elongated shaft section, and a head section, wherein the head section contains at least one concave area for bone growth therein.
