The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a zirconia slurry for forming porous surfaces on an abutment and a crown of a ceramic implant, the method including: the zirconia pulverization step (step S10) of putting zirconia powder, carbon powder as a foaming agent, and an organic binder in a ball mill and agitating and pulverizing the zirconia, carbon powder, and organic binder to allow the mixed zirconia powder to have nanoparticles; the carbon powder oxidization step (step S20) of heating the zirconia powder mixed with the carbon powder to a temperature of 1200 to 1800° C. and oxidizing the carbon powder to a concentration of 10 to 40 wt % to allow the porous surfaces to be formed on every particle of the zirconia powder; and the degreasing step (step S30) of putting a dispersing agent and a solvent in the zirconia powder whose particles have the porous surfaces to make a zirconia solution and removing the organic binder from the zirconia powder.

A dental implant includes: a base having exterior surfaces and a plug opening formed therein; a plug assembly inserted into the plug opening; and at least one region of porous ingrowth material associated with at least one of the exterior surfaces of the base.

A biomimetic composite material includes a bioactive cement material, an autologous dentin matrix, and an inorganic nano-reinforcement material. A dental implant includes a body including a biomimetic composite material, wherein the biomimetic composite material includes a bioactive cement material, an autologous dentin matrix, and an inorganic nano-reinforcement material.

The invention provides medical devices comprising high-strength alloys which degrade over time in the body of a human or animal, at controlled degradation rates, without generating emboli and which have enhanced degradation due to the presence of a halogen component. In one embodiment the alloy is formed into a bone fixation device such as an anchor, screw, plate, support or rod. In another embodiment the alloy is formed into a tissue fastening device such as staple. In yet another embodiment, the alloy is formed into a dental implant or a stent.

Object

Provided is a medical implant having favorable biocompatibility.

Solution to Problem

An implant used for binding to a biological tissue including bone or teeth, and made of metal selected from titanium or titanium alloys, cobalt chrome alloys, and tantalum, includes a surface layer portion of a portion, which is bound to a biological tissue including bone or teeth, of the implant, the surface layer portion having a porous structure. The porous structure includes a trunk hole formed in a thickness direction and including an opening on a binding face side, open holes each constituted of a branch hole formed extending from an inner wall surface of the trunk hole in a direction different from that of the trunk hole, an interior space formed in the thickness direction and not including an opening on the binding face side, a tunnel connecting path connecting the open holes and the interior space, and a tunnel connecting path connecting the open holes.

A set of components for dental prosthetic restoration includes a ceramic dental implant having an internal connecting receiving space. An internally threaded insert is added into the internal connecting receiving space of the dental implant, and rotatably indexed. It is held by a fixing part forming an axial abutment opposing an extraction of the internally threaded insert out of the inner connection receiving space.

A dental abutment system including an abutment, an inlay and screw, wherein the screw at least partially occupies the interior channel of the inlay. A method of manufacturing a dental abutment system and to a control data set including a plurality of control instructions that are configured to, when implemented in an additive manufacturing system, to cause the system to execute at least the step of forming an abutment at the distal end of an inlay using an additive manufacturing process. The screw is a captive screw. The interior channel of the abutment is variable in diameter and the smallest diameter is ≥102% and ≤110% of the width of the screw head and the longitudinal axis of the interior channel of the abutment and the longitudinal axis of the interior channel of the inlay are angled with respect to each other at an angle of ≥5 degrees.

An abutment for an endosseous dental implant which abutment can be inserted into a jaw bone and a dental implant including the implant abutment.

Described herein is a method of preparing a bone graft product, comprising computer-guided precision cutting an unshaped piece of bone from a human cadaver or a bovine animal to provide a shaped piece of bone having a predetermined shape that is determined by a human being using computer-aided design. Bone graft products prepared using this method and methods of grafting these products are also disclosed.

The present invention is directed to a biodegradable alloy suitable for use in a medical implant, comprising at least 50% iron by weight, at least 25% manganese by weight, and at least 0.01% sulfur and/or selenium by weight, wherein the biodegradable alloy is nonmagnetic. The present invention also provides a method of producing a biodegradable alloy with a desirable degradation rate.
