The present invention relates to an integrated hybrid dental implant, and more particularly, to an integrated hybrid dental implant in which an opening portion formed at a screw body to enable a drug to be injected into an implantation site of the implant, and the mechanical stability is excellent despite the presence of the opening portion. The integrated hybrid dental implant according to the present invention enables a drug to be supplied to the area around the implantation site so as to induce bone regeneration into the implant after the implant has been placed at a bone-deficient site, has an additional mechanical strength when bone grows into the side openings and hollow inner channel, and allows the screw body to be integrally formed with the prosthesis section (i.e., one piece) to exhibit more excellent mechanical strength so that the implant can be useful as a dental implant.

Embodiments of the disclosure relate to implantable objects and guiding devices, as well as recipient site preparation instruments, bone-implantable materials, and methods of fabrication and use thereof.

Apparatus and method for installing a multi-tooth dental prosthesis in one session are shown and described. A first tool attaches to the jawbone, and serves as a foundation for subsequently used guides. Existing teeth and dental fixtures are removed, and the bone tissue is removed to accommodate the prosthesis. Subsequently, a drill guide is used to drill implant holes. An abutment guide is then used to place abutments. Copings are then installed. Next, the prosthesis may be installed and cemented to the copings. A resinous filler material may be applied to fill gaps and holes in and between the copings and the prosthesis, and is sanded smooth. The first tool, the guides, and the prosthesis are predesigned and prefabricated based on images taken of the patient anatomy.

An interface element for dental prostheses, having a hollow cylindrical body with two different sections, one lower section (a) of greater outer diameter and another upper section (b) of smaller outer diameter, each provided externally with retention circular grooves (2). The element had an internal seat (4) for a screw head (5) which fixes the implant, and a lower base (6). A side mortise (7) is provided that covers the upper section (b) and provides a side opening for the inclined entrance of the screw (5) and screwdriver (8). The element further includes two flat surfaces (9) at diametrically opposite sides of the lower section.

The present invention relates to a system and a method for providing a model of a superstructure joining a denture and a corresponding dental arch, the method comprising the steps of: obtaining a first 3D representation of at least a part of a preliminary model of the denture, obtaining a second 3D representation of at least a part of the dental arch comprising dental implants, and generating a model of a superstructure based on the first 3D representation, the second 3D representation, dental implant positions and dental implant orientations.

A positioning system is provided, comprising a support beam for attachment to an individual's jaw, and a removable denture comprising a bottom surface formed with a recess configured for receiving therein the support beam, the support beam and the recess being configured to preclude movement therebetween when the support beam is fully received within the recess. The support beam or the recess comprises one or more positioning grooves extending parallel to a path of insertion of the denture, and the other comprises one or more positioning protrusions laterally projecting therefrom and configured to be slidingly received within a corresponding positioning groove to provide at least a partially snug fit. The one or more positioning grooves and the corresponding one or more positioning protrusions are configured on one or more of a labial, lingual, or an face extending between the labial and lingual faces, of the recess and the support beam.

Dental implant assemblies and methods of implanting the same ease and simplify implantation procedures while also reducing the risk of errors during implantation. One implant assembly includes a male-to-male connector to allow for use of a female locking nut that is larger than a typical locking screw during fixation of the dental implant. Another implant assembly combines use of the male-to-male connector with an abutment to improve alignment and fixation. Yet another implant assembly includes an adapter that surrounds the male-to-male connector to make the advancement of the dental implant to the implant site easier and more user-friendly. With such implant assemblies, dental prostheses can be more easily advanced and properly positioned at desired implant sites, while implantation processes are made safer and more simplified.
