Dental implant comprising an implant body having on an outer side an external thread for fastening the dental implant to a jaw bone and having an opening extending along a longitudinal axis of the dental implant. The opening comprises an internal thread for fastening a superstructure to the dental implant. The implant body further comprises an interface for fastening the superstructure to the dental implant, which interface is arranged at a front end of the implant body. The dental implant further comprises an anti-rotation element which is configured to prevent rotation of the superstructure around the longitudinal axis relative to the dental implant, wherein the anti-rotation element is configured as a component separate from the implant body, which is attached to the implant body in an area of the interface.

The disclosure of the present application relates to a healing abutment system and its use. The abutment system can include a base part adapted to be coupled to a dental implant via an abutment screw and a healing cap that can be coupled to the base part by a further screw. The healing cap can include features that can be scanned by an intra-oral scanning system or transferred to a physical impression to convey information regarding the position and orientation of the base part.

The present invention relates to a connection between a post part provided for being screwed into the jawbone and an associated superstructure part to which a dental prosthesis can be fastened. The connection between the post part and the superstructure part has a rotational self-centering action, wherein at least one of the surfaces provided for this purpose has a friction-minimizing modification and/or coating.

A dental implant system including an implant and an abutment is disclosed. The implant includes a generally cylindrical body, a central axis, a distal end for anchoring in a patient's bone and a proximal end opposing the distal end. The proximal end includes a roughened lateralized surface that surrounds an abutment-engaging region. The lateralized surface is disposed at a negative slope relative to the central axis. The abutment includes an upper portion for supporting a tooth-like prosthesis and a lower portion for engaging the abutment-engaging region of the dental implant. The diameter of the lower portion of the abutment is smaller than the diameter of the implant at its proximal end. The lower portion includes a first surface with a soft-tissue enhancing material. The first surface and the lateralized surface defining a circumferentially extending recess having a V-shaped cross-section for receiving and attachment to the soft tissue.

A dental restoration system is disclosed. A dental restoration system includes an implant, retention component, dental component and driver tool. The retention component is sealable in a retention chamber of the implant. The retention component includes a driver section for interfacing with a driving head of the driver tool and a dental component engagement section with a threaded surface. The dental component includes a retention component interface surface with threads. The dental component engages the retention component via the threaded surface interlocking with the threads of the retention component interface surface when the dental component is inserted in the implant. The driver tool is used to rotate the retention component to engage the dental component apically. The retention component contacts the retention component wall and the dental component contacts an annular shoulder of the implant when the dental component is fully attached to the implant.

The present disclosure relates to an apparatus of attaching a dental component having an angulated screw channel to a dental implant. The present disclosure also relates to a dental component having an angulated screw channel and a metal adapter.

The invention relates to an abutment for use in a dental implant system, wherein the abutment is provided with a guiding and lock for associating the abutment to a dental implant, the guiding and lock including: a first conically tapered section; a second substantially non-tapered section arranged apically adjacent to the first section, the second section being provided with an anti-rotational means; and a third substantially circular cylindrical section arranged apically adjacent to the second section, such that to provide axial guiding to the abutment upon the insertion thereof into a dental implant. Further, the invention relates to a dental implant formed in a similar manner.

An abutment is provided with a screw access hole and a slot in its sidewall adapted to allow a driver to access a screw in the screw access hole at an angle relative to a longitudinal axis of the screw. The abutment may include a screw seat and may be connected to an implant via a screw in the screw seat. A prosthesis, which may include a driver access channel that has a diameter less than the outer diameter of the drive portion of the screw, may be placed over the abutment. Methods of making a dental prosthesis and methods of attaching and removing the dental prosthesis from the implant are also disclosed.

Disclosed herein is a dental implant (1) having a post part (2) which can be placed in a jaw bone and having a structural part (4) associated with said post part, to which structural part a denture piece can be attached, the structural part comprising an integrally molded contact pin (8) which can be placed in an associated shaped recess (10) in the post part (2) with a positive fit, it is to be possible on the one hand to suitably index the implant in a simple and reliable manner, on the other hand a particularly high level of mechanical stability against rotation being ensured, even with an overall height which is kept low.

The present invention relates to a dental solid abutment integrally formed with a screw for being fixed to a fixture, and specifically, to a dental solid abutment in which a tool hole (a driver hole), to which a tool (a driver) used for being engaged to the fixture through a screw integrally formed on the abutment is engaged, is formed inside a post or a cuff below a functional part so as not to interfere with the functional part formed to add various functions to the post, so that a common driver can be used as it is while adding various functions to the post, and thus a production cost can be reduced and an implant treatment can be easily performed.
