Dental surgery method and device
A device for detaching a tooth root. The device comprises: a lead screw having a threaded point for screwing into the tooth root, and a threaded shaft; a pivoting member including a bore through which the lead screw passes, the lead screw being retractable through the bore by rotational engagement of a threaded member with the threaded shaft of the lead screw; and a platform for supporting the pivoting member such that the lead screw is able to pivot relative to the platform, The lead screw includes a locking surface for preventing rotation of the lead screw during rotational engagement of the threaded member with the threaded shaft.

SYSTEMS, DEVICES, AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING INFLATABLE ISOLATION AND NEGATIVE ENVIRONMENT FIELD
An intraoral inflatable isolator (III) for an oral cavity of a patient, the III including: a compressed-air port; and an inflatable membrane dimensioned to be insertable into the mouth and connected to the compressed-airport, the membrane being configured to inflate upon application of compressed air from the compressed-air port to isolate within the oral cavity.
DENTAL REPARATIVE ARTICLE
Provided in this disclosure is a crown for a damaged tooth that is manufactured via metal injection molding and features an opening into which can be applied flowable dual-cure tooth colored material.
Dental restoration molds
A tool for forming a dental restoration includes a mold body configured to provide a customized fit with at least one tooth of a patient. In some examples, the mold body defines an aperture configured to align with a portion of a surface of a tooth. The aperture is sufficiently large to allow placement and flow of restorative material over the desired portion of the surface of the tooth to be restored. The mold body is configured to combine with the at least one tooth of the patient to define a mold cavity encompassing at least a portion of desired tooth structure of the tooth to be restored.

VACUUM DRAWN IRRIGATION FOLLOWED BY INSTANT OBTURATION OF A ROOT CANAL SYSTEM USING A SINGLE STAGING ASSEMBLY
Embodiments of this disclosure provide a staging assembly (10) for negative pressure, multi-canal irrigation of a root canal system followed by obturation. The staging assembly may be part of a kit that includes a plurality of catheters (50) sized for insertion into the root canal system. To hold the catheter in its proper position in the canal, the catheter may include a stop (37) and the staging assembly may include a corresponding stop hold (36). The distal end (51) of the catheter can be positioned 2 mm to 5 mm from the terminus end of the root canal. The staging assembly is then sealed, creating a closed system. Irrigating solution is vacuum-drawn out the ends of the catheters and debris is evacuated through a vacuum port of the stating assembly. During irrigation, no hands on time is required by the clinician. After irrigation, vacuum is reversed to dry the canal. Obturation occurs through the vacuum portion.
SPLINT DEVICE FOR GUIDED SURGICAL ROBOT
A splint device (100) for robotically-guided surgery includes elongate first and second splint portions (200, 400) each having opposed longitudinal ends and an interface edge extending between the ends, wherein the respective interface edges (250, 450) are arranged as a complement to each other. First and second alignment elements (800A, 800B) engaged with the first and second splint portions are arranged to interact with each other such that a substantially consistent gap is defined between the first and second interface edges, from the first ends to the second ends of the first and second splint portions. A threaded member (900) is engaged between the first and second splint portions and arranged to advance the first and second interface edges toward each other in response to advancement of the threaded member. A tracking portion (1000) having a kinematic mount (1100) engaged therewith is engaged with the first or second splint portion and extends outwardly therefrom. An associated method is also provided.
INTERDENTAL ANCHORING APPARATUSES AND METHODS
One or more oral devices having interdental anchors configured to elastically deform and engage with an interdental gap between adjacent teeth. One or more medical devices can then be secured to the oral device via a securing portion, allowing the medical device to be secured relative to the patient.
INSTANTANEOUS DENTAL IMPLANT SURGERY GUIDING DEVICE AND METHOD THEREOF
Disclosed are an instantaneous dental implant surgery guiding device and a method thereof, of which a main structure includes a base, a receiving space, a sphere, a through hole, and a adjustor. With the above structure, a dentist places the base at a tooth missing site in a patient oral portion, and, after applying glue for fixing, carries out computer-tomographic scanning to allow the dentist to diagnose and assess, and then, the adjustor may be operated to drive the sphere to move in the receiving space in order to change angle and position of the through hole of the sphere, thereby allowing the dentist to apply an implant driller to make a drill along a predetermined route defined by the through hole of the sphere, enabling subsequent operations of expanding the implant route in a bone with drillers of different sizes and positioning the implant.
