A dental implant system that can include a prosthetic assembly and a dental implant. The prosthetic assembly can include a dental component and a retention screw. The dental component and the retention screw each have interference elements that are configured to engage when a removal torque is applied to the screw. When the interference element engage each other, a portion of the removal torque is converted into a linear force that is exerted on the dental component in a removal direction thereby separating the dental component from the dental implant.

Healing set capable of a connection to a dental implant during a cicatrisation phase of a dental restoration process, comprising a cicatrisation element (10) designed to be surrounded at least partially by a gum (63) and a post base (1) designed to be fixed in an implant (60), characterized in that the cicatrisation element has a lateral surface (13) designed to be integrated inside a gum in order to structurize the gum during its cicatrisation, and a terminal surface (14), one portion of the lateral surface (13) and of the terminal surface (14) forming an emergent surface, designed to remain outside the gum, which is asymmetrical with respect to at least a median perpendicular plane, and in that the post base has a longitudinal axis (L) for its entire length, able to be aligned with the axis of an implant (60).

A dental abutment coping or ring for securing a dental prosthesis to dental abutments. The coping or ring includes a body for insertion into a dental prosthesis, and a cavity or space sized to accept a head of the dental abutment. The interior surface of the cavity includes an interface region sized and shaped to accept the dental abutment in a retentive interface fit or a passive fit, depending on an angle of the interface surface. The exterior surface can have channels configured to contain a cement bonding the exterior surface to the dental prosthesis. A dental prosthesis system including the dental copings provides a retentive interference fit between the prosthesis and the dental abutments, even where the dental abutments are not parallel. A plurality of copings and abutments enables a retentive fit to varying degrees depending on the degree of interference fit in each coping and abutment.

One aspect of the invention concerns an overdenture retention implant (10) comprising an externally threaded implant body (12) to be screwed into a hole formed in a jawbone (70) and an implant end structure (14) at a proximal end of the implant body. The implant end structure includes a tool engagement portion (14.1) that can be engaged by an implant installation apparatus operable to rotate the implant to screw the body into the hole, and a threaded boss (14.2) to be engaged in threaded manner by an overdenture retention cap (100) configured for attachment of an overdenture. The tool engagement portion and boss have a common, central axis (22) which intersects the central axis (20) of the implant body at an acute angle (24). Other aspects of the invention concern the combination of the implant (10) and installation apparatus and the installation apparatus itself.

A dental abutment coping or ring for securing a dental prosthesis to dental abutments. The coping or ring includes a body for insertion into a dental prosthesis, and a cavity or space sized to accept a head of the dental abutment. The interior surface of the cavity includes an interface region sized and shaped to accept the dental abutment in a retentive interface fit or a passive fit, depending on an angle of the interface surface. The exterior surface can have channels configured to contain a cement bonding the exterior surface to the dental prosthesis. A dental prosthesis system including the dental copings provides a retentive interference fit between the prosthesis and the dental abutments, even where the dental abutments are not parallel. A plurality of copings and abutments enables a retentive fit to varying degrees depending on the degree of interference fit in each coping and abutment.

The present invention relates to an implant and, more specifically, has a fixture having a circular ball shape and a socket structure of an abutment body coupled to the fixture, and thus enables improvement of the matching between the fixture and an abutment which are an implant structure during an implant procedure.

A dental implant supported on the cortical bone is implanted in the socket from which the tooth was extracted, if this hole still exists, or in the remaining socket when the tooth was extracted some time before, or alternatively in a hole made for placement of the implant, at cortical bone level, and externally, between the cortical bone and the gingiva, slightly embracing the mandible and the maxilla.

In one embodiment, in order to enhance the fixation and implant lifetime vascularization, the implant of the present disclosure for fitting in an intraosseous zone of a dental socket includes a plurality of raised platforms with a flat top such that said tops form an external surface of the implant for contacting with the intraosseous zone and the spaces between said platforms form a network of channels for revascularisation fluid flow with capillarity properties.

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 present disclosure relates to a method of manufacture of a dental implant for a molar, including acquiring, structural data corresponding to bones of the facial skeleton, the bones of the facial skeleton being proximate the molar, selecting, as a dental implant fixation surface, a surface of the bones based upon a determined thickness of the bones, generating, based on the selected dental implant fixation surface, a contoured surface of the dental implant, and fabricating, based upon an instruction transmitted by processing circuitry, a bone plate extending from a buccal end of a cylindrical plate of the dental implant, the cylindrical plate having support lattices extending therefrom, at least one support lattice of the support lattices being arranged on a lingual end of the cylindrical plate, the cylindrical plate having an opening in a central region thereof, the opening being configured to receive a dental post.

Apparatus and method for installing a multi-tooth dental prosthesis in one session are shown and described. A first tool attaches to the jawbone, and serves as a foundation for subsequently used guides. Existing teeth and dental fixtures are removed, and the bone tissue is removed to accommodate the prosthesis. Subsequently, a drill guide is used to drill implant holes. An abutment guide is then used to place abutments. Copings are then installed. Next, the prosthesis may be installed and cemented to the copings. A resinous filler material may be applied to fill gaps and holes in and between the copings and the prosthesis, and is sanded smooth.
