Prosthetic device (10) for temporomandibular joint comprising a first prosthetic component (11), able to be associated with a mandibular condyle (112) of a patient, and a coordinated second prosthetic component (12), able to be associated with a respective glenoid fossa of the patient.

The present invention also concerns a guide device (35) for making an anchoring seating (113) for positioning the first component, and a prosthetic assembly comprising the prosthetic device (10) and the guide device (35).

A guide for planning and drilling for the subsequent placement of dental implants, especially indicated in cases in which angled perforations must be performed in the bone tissue based on a previously performed first vertical hole, and which essentially comprises a support, a plate with an angle at at least one of the ends thereof fastened on the support such that it may move and be detached with respect it, a guide body located at the end of the plate and a rod that in turn comprises an upper end that is joined to the support through rotation that enable the relative movement between both, and a lower end that is inserted in the bone tissue of the patient's mouth.

A two-stage precision guide and a method for fixing to a tripod with short dental implant function. The two-stage precision guide includes a fixation guide and a drilling guide. In a first stage of use, the fixation guide is adhered to the tripod allowing the body of the tripod, containing five perforations and having three identical feet, to be positioned on the bone. In the second stage of use, once the body has been fixed to the bone, the two-stage guide allows the bone to be worked on using the drilling guide. Once the holes have been made, the two parts of the two-stage guide are removed to be subsequently fixed to the bone by the body. With the feet being placed in the bone, a dental prosthesis can be situated on the tripod thereby allowing the tripod to act as a short dental implant.

A first guide member includes a horizontal body portion and a pair of upright portions. The horizontal body portion has an arcuate configuration and includes a first horizontal surface, a front surface, a rear surface, and a second horizontal surface. The first horizontal surface is flat. The first upright body portion includes a first inwardly extending portion. A first engagement surface of the first inwardly extending portion is configured to rest on a ridge of the alveolar arch of the patient. The second upright body portion includes a second inwardly extending portion. A second engagement surface of the second inwardly extending portion is configured to rest on a ridge of the alveolar arch of the patient. The first guide member lacks a component configured to extend along a lingual or palatal side of the alveolar arch of the patient.

The invention concerns a bone joining implant (1) for joining of a first bone section (2) with a second bone section (3) of a mammal bone (4) with a first attachment area (6), displaying several holes for fastening elements (5a), prepared for attachment to the first bone section (2), and a second attachment area (7), linked to the first attachment area (6), with the second attachment area (7) also displaying several holes for fastening elements (5b), also prepared for attachment to the second bone section (3), with formation of a separating tool guidance contour (9) between the first and second attachment areas (6, 7), defining a cutting line (8), as well as a procedure for the individualized manufacture of such a bone joining implant (1).

The invention discloses an osteotomy guide plate and a preparation method thereof. The osteotomy guide plate comprises a substrate, an osteotomy guide standardized part, a guide plate retention hole, a nail hole and a drainage channel; wherein the guide plate retention hole is distributed on the surface of the substrate; the outer end side of the nail hole is integrally formed with a standardized sleeve, and a detachably connected protective inner sleeve standardized part is provided within the standardized sleeve. The preparation method comprises parameter design and model printing, wherein an innovative nail hole positioning method is used in the parameter design. The invention is suitable for the osteotomy operation of different parts, with the advantages of convenient production, high precision and long service life; the preparation method improves the accuracy of opening a hole on the osteotomy guide plate.

A method for providing a guided relative movement of a first object and a second object includes obtaining the first object; obtaining the second object and a 3D model of the second object, and deriving from the 3D model a first preferred relative arrangement between the first and second objects; obtaining a pre-process plan describing a preferred path for the relative movement of the first and second objects towards the first preferred relative arrangement; performing a movement procedure that includes 3D scanning at least a region of said second object using the 3D scanner and determining a present relative arrangement of the first and second objects from a result of the 3D scanning; calculating information for correcting in real-time for deviation in the relative movement from the preferred path; and providing a relative movement of the first and second objects towards the first preferred relative arrangement.

Provided herein is an IVRO surgical guide for positioning a cutting guide on a mandibular ramus such that the mandibular ramus is clamped between a hooked distal end and a slidable component having a curved claw. The cutting guide is placed at a predetermined distance from the posterior edge of the ramus at the mid-waistline of the mandibular ramus along a curvilinear shaft in contact with the lateral surface of the ramus. The cutting guide can accommodate a saw for performing the osteotomy.

An orthognathic bone joining or positioning implant method for performing an osteotomy and subsequent rejoining of one or more separated bone sections to the bone in a desired repositioning, wherein the implant is manufactured such that it provides a separating tool guidance contour for separating the bone sections after attaching a first attachment area to the bone, and provides a second or third attachment area for attaching the separated bone sections to the bone in the desire repositioning without detaching said first attachment area. The method utilizes tomographic imaging to produce a target 3D model of the bone showing the repositioned bone sections based on the original 3D model of the bone.

Provided is a customizable surgical bone-cutting jigsaw puzzle-type guide device. The customizable surgical bone-cutting jigsaw puzzle-type guide device includes: a main guide portion that includes a main contact surface lengthily formed along a required main incision line of a bone to be cut and shaped to be brought into contact with the bone, and a main guide surface forming a guide line together with the main contact surface along the same line as the main incision line and shaped to be brought into contact with a cutting blade for guiding the movement of the cutting blade during cutting of the bone; and a connection portion extending from the main guide portion and connected to a side of the bone such that the main guide portion may be supported on the bone, the connection portion being configured to be detachably attached to the side of the bone.
