METHOD TO BIOPRINT A PATIENT SPECIFIC BONE GRAFT
20220370204 · 2022-11-24 ·

A system or method for bioprinting bone graft provides obtaining an image of the patient's oral facial area, and viewed with the image viewing software. A restoratively driven dental implant treatment plan is created to restore the patient's missing dentition. The restoratively driven treatment plan is created. A physical exam, review of a patient's desires and expectations, review of imaging, acquisition and review of patient photographs and intraoral digital impressions. The imaging and digital impressions are aligned, via software to create a virtual representation. The anticipated final implant retained dentures, unitary implant crowns, or implant bridges, are planned to provide optimal esthetic and functional results. Dental implants are then planned for prosthetic anchors. Bone deficiencies are evaluated and if areas of boney deficiency are present, a patient specific bone graft is designed to restore said deficient areas. Once designed, it may be printed via additive manufacturing.

Methods of designing and manufacturing customized dental prosthesis for periodontal or osseointegration and related systems

Methods of manufacturing dental prosthesis/implants each to replace a non-functional natural tooth positioned in a jawbone of a specific pre-identified patient are provided. An example method includes the steps of receiving imaging data such as x-ray image data and surface scan data of a dental anatomy and/or a physical impression of the dental anatomy of a specific preidentified patient. The steps can also include forming a three-dimensional virtual model of at least portions of a non-functional natural tooth positioned in the jawbone of the specific pre-identified patient based on the imaging and surface scan data, virtually designing a dental implant based upon the virtual model, exporting the data describing the designed dental implant to a manufacturing machine, and custom manufacturing the dental implant for the specific patient.

SURGICAL MEMBRANE
