The invention relates to an implant for attaching to a bone, having bone support surfaces or bone formfitting sections which are inclined relative to each other in order to rest on the surface of the bone. Two bone formfitting sections are aligned relative to each other in a sub-region of the implant such that surrounding the bone in the sub-region secures the position of the implant. The invention also relates to a method for producing an implant according to the invention.

An apparatus includes a first guide and a second guide. The first guide includes an arcuate horizontal body portion. A rear surface of the horizontal body portion is configured to closely mate with a front-facing bone structure of an alveolar arch of a patient. The second guide includes a body and a coupling member. The body defines a passageway that is configured to receive a bone reducing instrument. The coupling member is configured to mate with the horizontal body portion of the first guide. The body and the coupling member are configured to position the passageway along a second horizontal plane that is parallel with the first horizontal plane. The coupling member is configured to enable the second guide to relative to the first guide along the second horizontal plane and thereby guide the bone reducing instrument along the second horizontal plane.

A surgical guide assembly having an attachment device configured to be coupled to a bone. A cut location indicator is coupled to the attachment device. The cut location indicator identifies a location where the bone is to be cut. An arm is coupled to the attachment device, the cut location indicator, or both. A support structure is coupled to the arm. The support structure is configured to have a trackable feature coupled thereto.

An intraoral 3D scanner includes a probe light source configured to generate a probe light such that the probe light is transmitted towards the dental situation; a camera including an array of sensor elements, the camera being arranged such that the probe light from the dental situation is transmitted to the array of sensor elements, wherein the camera is configured to create images of the dental situation from which a point cloud is generated, and a guiding system configured to guide relative movement of the intraoral 3D scanner towards the dental situation, wherein the camera is part of the guiding system, the camera is configured to record images from which a relative position of the intraoral 3D scanner and the dental situation is determined, such that based on the relative position, the guiding system is configured to provide a positioning signal in the form of a positioning color code.

Disclosed is a method of simulating mastication. The method includes obtaining computer-readable three-dimensional representations of a first skeletal fragment including a portion of at least one of a mandible and a maxilla and of a recipient skeletal fragment including a portion of at least one of a mandible and a maxilla. The method also includes obtaining placement data and obtaining muscle insertion data. The method also includes simulating a contraction of a muscle positioned according to the muscle insertion data in a representation of a surgical hybrid comprising at least a portion of the first skeletal fragment positioned according to the placement data relative to at least a portion of the recipient skeletal fragment. The method also includes outputting a representation of mastication represented by the simulating.

A surgical template for the placement and installation of a dental prosthesis is provided. The surgical template comprises a framework connectable to a patient's mouth, a drilling template connectable to the framework, and a dental prosthesis connectable to the framework. The drilling template allows customized and guided drilling for placement of implants, and the dental prosthesis comprises openings which align with the drilling template guide holes, allowing directed placement of the implants through the dental prosthesis openings. In many embodiments, the implant is able to engage with both the bone of the patient and the dental prosthesis simultaneously, thereby anchoring the prosthesis to the bone of the patient.

An intraoral 3D scanner includes a probe light source configured to generate a probe light such that the probe light is transmitted towards the dental situation; a camera including an array of sensor elements, the camera being arranged such that the probe light from the dental situation is transmitted to the array of sensor elements, wherein the camera is configured to create images of the dental situation from which a point cloud is generated, and a guiding system configured to guide relative movement of the intraoral 3D scanner towards the dental situation, wherein the camera is part of the guiding system, the camera is configured to record images from which a relative position of the intraoral 3D scanner and the dental situation is determined, such that based on the relative position, the guiding system is configured to provide a positioning signal in the form of a positioning color code.

A method for computer-assisted planning of a transplant surgery is provided. The method includes obtaining a computer-readable representation of a donor and recipient skeletal fragment; determining surgical cutting planes on the computer-readable representation of the donor skeletal fragment from which a portion of the donor skeletal fragment from the computer-readable representation of the donor skeletal fragment will be harvested; determining virtual cutting guides; performing a virtual osteotomy to separate the portion of the donor skeletal fragment from the computer-readable representation of the donor skeletal fragment from a remainder portion of the donor skeletal fragment based on a position of the virtual cutting guides that are attached to the computer-readable representation of the donor skeletal fragment; positioning the donor skeletal fragment within a transplant region of the recipient skeletal fragment; and creating a hybrid computer-readable representation comprising the recipient skeletal fragment and the portion of the donor skeletal.
