System and method for cementing parts into a screw retained implant crown
11529218 · 2022-12-20 ·

Tools, assemblies, devices, systems, and methods for easily mounting a crown to a titanium (Ti) base or custom abutment with a tool without having to pre-cement a mounting base to a crown and have to physically hold together the base to the crown until the cement is cured. The implant cementation assembly tool does allow the Ti base and crown to be cemented (pre-cemented) without being constantly held and done outside of the mouth. The embodiments can include a bottom (hard rod, such as plastic or metal) that goes through the Ti base and the crown. The embodiments can include a top that is either threaded to allow it to be screwed onto the hard rod or a top that has a hollow center that can slide over the hard rod and be clamped to the rod. A second embodiment uses a modified hemostat tool with lockable pivoting arms to clamp the crown to the Ti base to allow cement to become set.

A top surface of the temporary abutment includes one or more informational markers that provide information concerning the dental implant. A temporary abutment cap is configured to be coupled to the upper region of the temporary abutment. The temporary abutment cap has at least one projection configured to mate with the at least one retention groove of the temporary abutment. The temporary abutment cap has a second anti-rotational structure that is configured to slidably engage the first anti-rotational structure of the temporary abutment. The temporary abutment cap is configured to be coupled with a temporary prosthesis such that the temporary prosthesis and the temporary abutment cap are removable from the temporary abutment.

Method for manufacturing a dental structure, dental structure obtained and dental assembly formed by a structure screwed on a dental implant
11413120 · 2022-08-16 · ·

A method for manufacturing a dental structure, a dental structure and a dental assembly, formed by a structure screwed on a dental implant relates to a manufacturing method of a dental structure intended to be located and screwed on a previously osseointegrated dental implant, as well as to the structure obtained according to said method and to the dental assembly formed by said structure and implant.

Dental prosthetic assemblies and coupling systems
11399920 · 2022-08-02 · ·

A dental prosthetic assembly includes a semi-flexible reinforcement bar and a polymer and glass outer layer chemically luted to the semi-reinforcement bar outside of the reinforcement bar. The semi-flexible reinforcement bar forms an interior of the dental prosthetic assembly and at least a portion of the polymer and glass outer layer forms teeth of the dental prosthetic assembly. A coupling system of a dental prosthetic assembly includes pins disposed in openings extending into the dental prosthetic assembly and implant abutments configured to be coupled with a mouth of a patient. The implant anchors have horizontal holes configured to receive the pins. The pins secure the dental prosthetic assembly to the implant abutments by moving into the dental prosthetic assembly through the openings and into the holes of the implant abutments.

Fabrication And Installation Of A Dental Implant

A dental implant for supporting periodontal tissue and the supporting bone is provided. The dental implant includes an implant member with inner canal for insertion into a periodontal bone socket, and an anchoring assembly. The anchoring assembly includes a first fastening element and radially equidistant cylindrical members. The first fastening element engages the implant member within the hollow axial cavity. The root section includes through-holes for radially and forcibly sliding the cylindrical members through them. When the first fastening element apically advances within the hollow axial cavity, the cylindrical members generate an anchoring force to anchor the dental implant.
