A device for the replacement of missing bone and inadequate bone level, the device comprising: one or more implant blocks, shaped to fill in gaps in a jaw bone, the one or more implant blocks comprised of one or more layers characterized by a honeycomb-like structure, and one or more apertures separated by one or more raised crests; one or more screws; one or more tooth implants, the tooth implants shaped to fit in the one or more apertures of the one or more implant blocks, and having one or more internal holes in their base; one or more tooth abutments, the one or more tooth abutments including one or more members on a side complementary to the shape of the one or more internal holes of the one or more tooth implants, and a support structure; and one or more crowns, the one or more crowns shaped to fit over the support structure of the one or more tooth abutments.

A dental bridge system (10) is provided, comprising a superstructure (14) having a teeth-mimicking portion at a distal end thereof, and at least one receiving cavity formed on a proximal side thereof, at least one support arrangement (12) configured for being fixedly secured, at a proximal side thereof, to an alveolar ridge of an individual, and being formed so as to be received, at a distal side thereof, within one of the receiving cavities to facilitate carrying of the superstructure (14), and a buffering arrangement (16) disposed between the superstructure (14) and the support arrangement (12), the buffer arrangement (16) being configured to damp shock impulses between the support arrangement (12) and the superstructure (14).

A method of damping compressive, tensile, and lateral compressive and tensile forces on one or more prosthetic teeth and an implant recessed into jawbone through use of synthetic periodontal ligament fibers in the form of a damping membrane within a dental bridge assembly. An arcuate damping membrane positions on a full bar and a half-bar positions over the membrane; whereby the damping membrane is sufficiently resilient to enable lateral and axial movements by the prostheses affixed to the half-bar.

A force damping dental bridge assembly which damps compressive, tensile, and lateral forces on a prosthetic tooth and jawbone through use of synthetic periodontal ligament fibers in the form of a damping membrane. Multiple layers of arcuate components and Morse taper interconnections secure the assembly. A threaded implant that penetrates the jawbone defining a tapered, conical inner cavity which receives a shank protruding downwardly from a full bar. An arcuate damping membrane positions on the bar and a half-bar positions over the membrane; whereby the damping membrane is sufficiently resilient to enable lateral and axial movements by the prostheses affixed to the half-bar. A plurality of protuberances extend from an upper surface of the half-bar to enable sculpting and affixation of prostheses thereon; and whereby a plurality of fasteners detachably connect the prostheses to the bar and/or implants in a snap-fit relationship that can be detached with an implement adapted to unsnap the assembly from a patient's mouth.

The present invention provides a dental implant including: a fixture and an abutment including a coupling leg, and the fixture and the abutment are elastically coupled with each other, the dental implant including: a fixture axial hole inner inclined surface in which an inner diameter of an axial hole is gradually and downwardly reduced from a predetermined position of an inner inclined surface of the fixture; a first coupling part formed with a coupling hole at a predetermined position of the fixture; and a first associated coupling part formed with a coupling protrusion complementarily coupled with the first coupling part, wherein when the first associated coupling part is separated from the first coupling part by rotating the abutment, the coupling protrusion upwardly pushes the abutment from the fixture by elastic repulsion with the axial hole inner inclined surface of the fixture, thus the abutment becomes separated from the fixture.

A fastener for embedment in bone includes a chevron-shaped thread pattern having a first radial superior surface at an angle beta on a blank relative to a longitudinally extending axis of the fastener, a second radial superior surface at an angle alpha inboard to the first radial superior surface and relative to the longitudinally extending axis such that the two superior surfaces form a V-shape geometry. The fastener further includes a flank surface underlying the second radial superior surface at an angle gamma, the angle gamma defining an angle with the longitudinally extending axis that is 90, a relief surface underlying the first radial superior surface such that the flank surface and the relief surface form a V-shape geometry, and a radially-outermost surface adjacent to the relief surface and defining a major diameter of the thread pattern, the radially-outermost surface being parallel to the longitudinally extending axis of the fastener.

A dental implant including a base, a central shaft and a shock absorber spacing and allowing limited movement between the base and the central shaft. The shock absorber may also contain a plurality of flex struts. The dental implant may further include an index collar covering an upper portion in the base.

The invention relates to a dental implant configured to be anchored in a jawbone for supporting a dental prosthesis. In order to allow an adjustment of the tooth restoration structure to properties of a natural tooth the dental implant includes a jacket member which includes at least in part an osseo-integratable material and enclosing a cavity in an apical direction, and a filling member of fiber reinforced material and being shaped so as to substantially fill out the cavity.

The disclosure provides an artificial denture which is configured to fixed to a carrier. The artificial denture includes a first inner component, a second inner component and a tooth crown. The first inner component is configured to be fixed to the carrier. The first inner component includes a first cover and a first post connected to each other. The first post has a hole. The second inner component includes a second cover and a second post connected to each other. The second cover is detachably sleeved on the first cover, and the second post is inserted in the hole of the first post so as to be fixed to the first inner component. The tooth crown covers the second cover of the second inner component.

An dental implant has a substantially cylindrical hollow base member; an abutment; an implant-abutment junction (IAJ) portion at one end of the base member to retain the abutment to the base member, so that the abutment is able to move within a predetermined distance alone an axial direction of the base member, and a first cushion adapted to be mounted between the abutment and the base member for providing a resistance force when the abutment is pressed to move relatively toward the base member and providing a bouncing back force when the abutment is released from the pressing.
