A dental implant with an implant extension which are formed along a longitudinal axis: the dental implant has an apical end, a coronal end and a section for receiving; securing an abutment; the implant extension is formed in one piece with the implant; extends away from an end face of the apical end along the longitudinal axis, the implant extension having a first section along the longitudinal axis with an annular constriction which is directly connected to the end face of the apical end of the implant; the implant breaks off from the implant extension at the constriction, along the longitudinal axis following the first section, wherein the second section, splined shaft section being further away from the implant than the first section, perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, an outer annular groove being designed to hold the implant extension by clamping the groove in the direction of the longitudinal axis.

A multifunctional abutment configured to releasably connect to a dental implant comprises a body and a head at an upper edge of the body. The multifunctional abutment is configured to allow execution of multiple steps during an implantation procedure of the dental implant, while using same multifunctional abutment.

A double packaging structure for an object, which may be a sterile object, includes a hollow external container having a closed first end, an open second end and walls, and an internal container disposed inside the external container. The internal container includes a hollow body and a cap. The object is intended to be received in the body. To close its first end, the external container has a membrane capable of deforming when pressure is applied to the membrane. The membrane is configured so that a pressure applied to its outer face, along the longitudinal axis, pushes its inner face against the inner container and causes the inner container to exit at the second end of the external container in the absence of a closure system at the second end.

A process for providing a sterilized dental article, at least a portion of the surface of which exhibiting a contact angle of less than 45. The process includes the subsequent steps of a) providing a dental article and b) subjecting the initial dental article to a hydrogen peroxide plasma treatment. It is characterized in that the hydrogen peroxide plasma sterilization treatment of step b) is carried out in the presence of a carbon-containing compound, which during treatment is converted to form a carboxylic group attached to the surface of the dental article.

The invention relates to a device for holding and releasing an object, comprising a main body comprising a housing to at least partially accommodate said object and an opening to enable at least a portion of the object to be removed, a lid that can be moved from a closed position preventing access to said opening and an open position enabling access to said opening, and a stop mechanism designed such that it can be moved to different positions relative to the main body towards the opening of said main body, but blocked in the other direction, to enable the stop mechanism to be brought into contact with or close to the object while preventing any recoil of the stop mechanism. The invention also relates to a corresponding production method and release methods.

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 disclosure provides a dental implant packaging container including: a see-through body unit in which upper and lower sides are open to form an accommodation space so that a dental implant fixture is accommodated therein and which is made of a material through which UV light for surface modification passes; a first cap unit which includes a hollow first cap body configured to cover an upper end portion of the accommodation space, a first fixing part protruding from a lower portion of the first cap body and having a coupling surface formed on an outer side portion, and a protruding part provided to protrude from the first fixing; a hollow holder unit which has an outer circumferential portion coupled to an inner circumference of the see-through body unit and an inner circumferential portion coupled to the coupling surface to mediate the connection between the see-through body unit and the first cap unit; and a second cap unit which includes a second fixing part fitted and coupled to a lower end portion of the see-through body unit and a base part provided on an inner side end of the second fixing part so that a lower end portion of the fixture is seated thereon.

The present invention relates to a receptacle for a dental implant (1) having an implant extension (2), said receptacle comprising: a cover (10) which is formed along a longitudinal axis with a first end section (11) which is open to the outside in the direction of the longitudinal axis and with a second end section (12) which is closed to the outside, wherein the cover (10) surrounds an interior space (15) which is open to the first end section (11) and in which a holder (20) is arranged along the longitudinal axis, said holder having a channel which is open to the outside along the longitudinal axis, the channel being formed to partially receive and to hold the implant extension (2) during transport; and a bottom receptacle (14) formed tubularly along the longitudinal axis with an outer third end section (14a) and an opposing fourth end section (14b), the third end section (14a) being sealed tightly to the outside, wherein the fourth end section (14b) of the bottom receptacle (14) and the first end section (11) of the cover (10) are interconnectable and manually detachable to form a substantially gas and liquid tight space therebetween; wherein at least three spring arms (31) are formed and arranged in the cover (10) towards the longitudinal axis in such a way that they are each connected to the cover (10) at an outer first end (31a) along an annular region around the longitudinal axis and are equally spaced apart and resilient radially towards the longitudinal axis with a respective second end (31b), wherein the second ends (31b) towards the longitudinal axis each having a nub (32) formed to engage a groove (7) formed annularly on the implant extension (2) when the implant extension (2) is in its final position; and wherein the spring arms (31) are designed geometrically and so flexible that the nubs (32) are pushed away from the longitudinal axis during insertion of the implant extension (2) and, in the final position, push into the groove (7) with a tensioning force perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.

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 package for an object includes a support element with means for coupling the object to the support element. A first hollow protective element is provided as a stopper coupled to the support element of the object. The support element presents a grip portion which projects from the stopper, the support element, alone or in co-operation with the stopper, defining a first chamber containing the object. A second hollow protective element is provided as a cover. The cover is coupled to the stopper so as to cooperate with the stopper to define a second chamber inside which the grip portion of the support element extends. The cover is coupled to the stopper, with the grip portion of the stopper projecting from the cover. The means for coupling is configured to hold the object suspended through the means for coupling, so that the object extends into the space left free between the means for coupling and a bottom portion of the support element. The bottom portion is coupled to the stopper so that the length of the object remain visible.
