Disclosed is a method of manufacturing a digital overdenture to improve manufacturing convenience and preciseness. The method of manufacturing the digital overdenture according to the present invention includes a series of operations such as generating a planning image, manufacturing auxiliary devices for manufacturing the overdenture such as a surgical guide, a flattening guide, an impression model, and the like, setting a holder device and correcting a temporary denture, obtaining a corrected-scanned image, and designing and manufacturing a digital overdenture.

The present invention provides a digital dental prosthesis manufacturing method including a first step in which a three-dimensional work image is acquired, the three-dimensional work image including surface information on an inner side of an oral cavity and a target dental arch in which fixtures are placed and occlusion information between the target dental arch and an opposing dental arch; a second step in which a temporary digital dental prosthesis is designed and manufactured; a third step in which the manufactured temporary digital dental prosthesis is installed on the target dental arch; and a fourth step in which a virtual coupling groove, which corresponds to surface information on the corrected coupling region, is set in an inner surface profile, which is set according to surface information on the corrected temporary shape-matching surface that is included in the corrected scan image, and a final digital dental prosthesis is designed and manufactured.

A multi-component dental implant system designed to improve oral hygiene. The dental implant system may comprise an implant body configured to be insertable into at least a portion of an individual's mouth, a primary or first abutment, a dental prosthesis engagement member, and a housing assembly. In use, the first abutment is designed to engage with and secure to the dental prosthesis engagement member. The housing is configured to secure to or cover the dental prosthesis engagement member. The dental implant system allows an individual to remove one or more components without the aid of any special tools or instruments.

Customized dental implants feature enhanced osseointegrable qualities by manufacturing the implant post with osseointegrable material and preparing a larger post body, including a portion to cover a prepared bone surface, to integrate with a jawbone. Resultant implants are more durable and provide a better fir into the oral cavity. Various implant shapes and designs are disclosed.

The invention relates to a dental restoration production device, comprising a curable dental restoration material (20) and a radiation-curing device by means of which the curable dental restoration material (20) can be cured using light radiation, UV radiation and/or heat radiation in order to produce a dental restoration part (22), and comprising an add-on (24) or attachment to the radiation-curing device, which faces said dental restoration material (20) or can be directed thereto, wherein said attachment or add-on (24) has a molding surface that corresponds to the target shape of the surface (52) of the dental restoration material (20) and forms a negative mold (54) therefor on the region facing the radiation-curing device.

A plate (30 or 40) used for installing a prefabricated prosthesis (62) on to free-hand installed implants (52) includes a plastic structure (30 or 40) shaped and configured to mate with an arch (10), a plurality of perforations in the plastic structure, and a plurality of removable panels (32 or 42) corresponding to the plurality of perforations. The plurality of removable panels are designed and configured for removal in locations corresponding to locations of the free-hand installed implants and further configured to deliver the prosthesis on to the implants using the plastic plate.

Method for manufacturing a drilling template (9) and a support piece (3) for positioning this drilling template (9) in relation to the bone of a jaw, wherein a digital model of the dental prosthesis is designed starting from a digital mould such that it can fit to soft tissue of the jaw. According to the invention, a provisional dental prosthesis is manufactured based on the digital model, wherein this provisional dental prosthesis is positioned on the jaw and at least one image of the jaw with the dental prosthesis (1) is generated by means of tomography, wherein a position and orientation for said at least one implant are then selected on the basis of said image.

A dental restoration apparatus that eliminates time-consuming, labor-intensive steps conventionally needed to fabricate molds, and thereby facilitates dental restorations in a shorter time, while reducing the discomfort and embarrassment sometimes associated with provisional restorations, which includes an additive manufacturing apparatus (e.g., a 3-D printer) having a tool head (e.g., a print head) and a fixture for controlling the position of the tool head relative to the teeth of a patient, allowing fabrication of a planned dental structure directly on an existing dental structure.

A system and method providing a dental patient and dental provider with a selection portal for services to allow a patient to find a provider and a provider to assess the needs and interests of the patient prior to a visit, and to provide treatment facilitating/smile preview devices for use at the initial visit.

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.
