A convertible dental assembly is disclosed herein. The convertible dental assembly includes abutments adapted for fixing with implants; fixed-hybrid housings adapted for fixing with the abutments through a fixing screw; and removable-hybrid housings, adapted for engagement with abutments through snap fit parts. The fixing screw and the snap fit part are fixed to the abutments through same female threads on the abutments. The fixed-hybrid housings are used for a fixed-hybrid dental assembly during period of healing of the implants, and replaced by the plurality of removable-hybrid housings along with the snap fit parts for a removable-hybrid dental assembly after the period of healing of the implants. The fixed-hybrid housings and the removable-hybrid housings can be captured in the dental assembly via chair-side pickup at respective instances. The removable-hybrid housings can be placed indirectly by a dental laboratory if a new denture is being fabricated. The abutment includes an outer frustoconical profile that engages with matching frustoconical cavities in the fixed-hybrid housings and removable-hybrid housings.

The disclosure of the present application relates to a healing abutment and its use. The healing abutment can include scannable features and can be coupled to a dental implant via a retention screw. The healing abutment can include features that can be scanned by an intra-oral scanning system or transferred to a physical impression to convey information regarding the position and orientation of the dental implant.

A System of Triple abutments with Tconnect comprising T-abutments to place at least three dental crowns over a one only osseointegrated implant and only one T-abutment, for partial fixed cases and new total fixed segmented cases, T-Over abutments with Plug T for use of overdentures over only one abutment and only one osseointegrated implant too, T-healing for guide specific gingival contour of the Tconnect in the healing phase and T-guides, to guide the implant surgery to be positioned for the use of abutments of this system. The all abutments of this system has Tconnect, being an exclusive design support with paraboloid multidimensional contour in double shape curvature with three pins disposed in the form of a tripod (in triangular arrangement) and are adaptable to all the implant/abutment fitting connections of market. All system may be individualized, make in process type CAD-CAM or prefabricated (manufactured type) and it can receive any type of surface treatment. The new biomechanical possibilities of the invention provide stability, passivity, greater precision of adaptation and better distribution of tensions, a fundamental advantage for use of the immediate load. The soft tissue is favored by immediate loading too. The new fixed arrangements with segmentation promotes cleaning and longevity for the system. This invention provides superior resistance of the abutments, long-lasting esthetic and reduction of the bone grafts, clinical time and costs, ensuring predictability of the results.

A set of healing abutments includes a first healing abutment and a second healing abutment. The first healing abutment has an upper surface with a first code thereon. The first code is associated with a size of the first healing abutment. The second healing abutment has an upper surface with a second code thereon. The second code is associated with a size of the second healing abutment. The first healing abutment and the second healing abutment have the same size. The first code is different from the second code.

The secondary part (17) according to the invention, for securing on and/or in a dental implant, is suitable for receiving a tertiary part. The secondary part (17) comprises a secondary-part body (22) with a recess (21) on the inside, and a secondary-part screw (20) receiveable or received in the recess. The secondary part (17) has a screwing-in mechanism in the form of a contour for receiving a screwing-in tool for screwing the dental implant, connected to the secondary part (17), into a jawbone.

The present invention relates to endosseous implants and in particular, to screw form dental implants for implanting within bone. The bone implant is configured to be a self-drilling bone implant that is adept at condensing, collecting and distributing bone along all of the implant's surface and within the implantation site, to significantly increase the bone implant contact surface. The implant is configured to have a coronal portion and a body portion that are continuous with one another. The coronal portion is configured to have a smaller overall diameter than the overall diameter of said body portion. The body portion is fit with threading that facilitates the self-drilling and bone collection properties when the implant is rotates in both the clockwise and counterclockwise directions.

The present invention relates to a dental device adapted to be connected to a dental implant fixture, wherein the device at least comprises an scan body comprising polyether ether ketone (PEEK) adapted to be connected to the dental implant fixture and adapted to be captured by a scanning device, and a customizable gingiva body mounted to the scan body in a fixed position, wherein the gingiva body comprises a thermoplastic polymer adapted to be captured by a scanning device and at least partially comprising a polymer comprising a melting point of 35 C. and 80 C. In addition, the invention relates to a process for the production of a customized dental model and the use of a digital model obtained by the inventive process to produce customized crown models.

The secondary part (17), for securing on and/or in a dental implant, is suitable for receiving a tertiary part. The secondary part (17) has a secondary-part body (22) with a recess (21) on the inside, and a secondary-part screw (20) receivable or received in the recess. The secondary part (17) has a screwing-in mechanism in the form of a contour for receiving a screwing-in tool for screwing the dental implant, connected to the secondary part (17), into a jawbone.

A dental attachment assembly and method anchors a dental appliance with an implant and has an abutment member attached to the implant, a retention member in releasable snap engagement with the abutment member, and a cap secured in a recess of the dental appliance and in releasable swivel engagement with the retention member to position and secure the dental appliance onto the implant. The cap includes a cavity with a rounded, concave inner surface which engages with the retention member, an interior top surface of the cavity with a concave recess extending radially along an outer periphery of the interior top surface of the cavity to allow for rotation of the retention member within the cap. A central portion of the interior top surface of the cavity surrounded by the concave recess therefore protrudes vertically into the cavity to minimize vertical displacement of the retention member as it rotates.

The invention relates to a dental component, such as an abutment, an abutment replica, an abutment blank, a customized abutment, a scan abutment, a digital transfer coping, an impression pick-up element, a healing cap or a driver, comprises a first indexing element and at least two second indexing elements having apical ends located apically of the apical end of said first indexing element. The invention also relates to a dental implant which comprises a dental component having first and second indexing elements and a fixture having third and fourth indexing elements, wherein the first and third indexing elements can only engage with each other after the second and fourth indexing elements have engaged with each other. The invention also relates to a fixture.
