A device for to aid or help patients remove dental prostheses. The dental prosthesis removal tool preferably includes a small hook, which has a rubber cover. The hook is preferably attached to a bar and a handle, which could easily fit into a patient's hand. The tool is preferably made of a strong, rust free metal, e.g. stainless steel. The handle is preferably made of a hard, processed plastic, and is strongly secured to the bar. A kit of the components is also envisioned.

Described herein are systems and methods for extracting a broken fragment of a dental abutment screw from a dental implant. One such system includes an extractor tool having a tubular outer body and a conductor positioned within the tubular outer body, and an applicator that receives and end of the extractor tool and also includes a heating element that converts electrical energy into heat that is conducted to the extractor tool to melt a thermoplastic adhesive in a cavity at the distal end of the extractor tool, such that the melted thermoplastic adhesive can conform to and engage with a broken fragment of a dental abutment screw within a dental implant when the adhesive cools. The extractor tool can then be rotated to unscrew the broken fragment from the dental implant.

An object of the present invention is to provide forceps for removing a dental implant fixture, in which pinching portions securely hold a fixture to remove the fixture implanted in an alveolar bone, and thus to prevent the pinching portions from slipping out of the fixture. Forceps for removing a dental implant fixture according to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention include: a pair of handles; coupling portions extended from the handles, crossed, and hingedly coupled; pinching portions connected to the coupling portions; and holding pieces protruding from ends of the pinching portions in a direction toward a center of a dental implant fixture and each having an arc corresponding to at least a part of an outer circumference of the fixture so that the holding pieces are inserted into a trough of a threaded portion formed on the outer circumference of the fixture.

An implant-supported dental prosthesis, removal device for automatically removing the prosthesis, attachment piece for attaching the prosthesis to implants and an attachment bar for attaching the prosthesis to implants. The prosthesis comprises a compartment with a spacing member that can be actuated through a side opening by means of the device, for automatically removing the prosthesis. The device comprises a head with a first plunger configured for being introduced in the compartment and moving the first plunger in both directions to move the first plunger out when the spacer moves, causing removing the prosthesis, and when the first plunger moves in the opposite direction the head is extracted from the compartment. The attachment piece and bar for attaching the prosthesis respectively comprise a projection and a step to make it easier to remove the prosthesis.

A dental crown removal apparatus is provided, including a handle for placement in an operator's hand, an elongated post projecting along a first axis, the post being connected for reciprocal motion with respect to the handle, a motor in the handle for moving the post, a tool adapter connected with the post opposite the handle, the tool adapter having an extension arm extending away from the handle with a pivot arm connected with the extension arm and spaced from the handle, and first and second opposing jaws having claw ends spring biased together, the first and second jaws having independent and unitary pivotal connection with the pivot arm.

A tooth loosening device comprises a body having a tooth contacting portion connected to a handling portion. The tooth contacting portion has a tooth contacting member including one or more surfaces adapted to contact a tooth, and the handling portion includes a manipulation member. The tooth contacting portion can be inserted into a mouth having a tooth in need of loosening, and the manipulation member can position the tooth contacting member so that the one or more surfaces contacts the tooth in need of loosening. The tooth in need of loosening can then be loosened by manipulation of the tooth loosening device. A vibrating mechanism can also be provided to apply vibration to the tooth in need of loosening.
