METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SUPPLEMENTING SCAN DATA BY USING LIBRARY DATA
A method for supplementing scan data by using library data according to the present invention comprises: a scan step of acquiring scan data of a subject including a structure; a step of selecting library model data corresponding to the structure; and a step of post-processing the scan data, wherein the library model data is added at the step of post-processing of the scan data and is post-processed together with the scan data. Accordingly, the scan data in which distortion or a data gap has occurred is supplemented by the library model data, and thus a user acquires a highly reliable three-dimensional model.
SCANNING BODY SYSTEM FOR DETERMINING A POSITIONING AND ORIENTATION OF A DENTAL IMPLANT
A scanning body system for determining a positioning and orientation of a dental implant, including a base part, an interface, and a scanning part which has a three-dimensional scanning contour and is rigidly connected to the base part to form a scanning body, and a fastening screw, provided for fastening the scanning body in the dental implant. Provision is made that the base part and/or the fastening screw are provided with at least one mechanical retention arrangement, which holds the fastening screw securely in the scanning body after insertion into the scanning body through a passage of the scanning part.
Dental Framework and Prosthesis
A dental prosthesis and a process for design and manufacturing, incorporating a dental implant framework and veneering overlay that will be designed and manufactured simultaneously and permanently fixated to one another.

Dental component and a dental implant
A dental component comprising a fixture engagement portion for engaging the dental component with a dental fixture adapted to be inserted into a jawbone or for engaging the dental component with a fixture replica.
Healing abutment system for configuring crown abutments at an implant site
An anatomical healing abutment is configured to connect to a dental implant. The healing abutment has a body portion which includes at least three reference marks that provide data to orient the connection axis of the abutment with the that of the dental implant so that certain conventional steps, including healing abutment manipulation, multiple scans, and the taking of impressions, can be eliminated, thereby saving time and effort on the part of the practitioner.
Dental implants with markers for determining three-dimensional positioning
Dental implants including radiopaque markers provided therein or thereon. The implant may also include customizable length characteristics. For example, a kit may include implants with different diameters (e.g., 3 diameters), where all of the implants are of a single (e.g., long) length. The appropriate diameter implant may be selected from the kit by the practitioner, and the long length implant may be cut (e.g., with a dental drill) to the appropriate length needed. The implants include radiopaque markers on or within the implant. For example, three series of markers may be provided on different “faces” of the implant, so that the three series of markers serve as reference points when scanning, allowing triangulation of the exact position of the implant in relation to the surrounding hard and soft oral tissues.
Stable winged affixation system for guided dental implantation
A stable affixation system for dental implantation includes a fixation tray having, for rapid placement, a housing defining a chamber whose inner surface is configured to house a flowable or malleable material and be placed over one or more teeth during guided dental implantation surgery. A central portion not configured to flex is situated between housing side walls. Each such side wall has an upper side portion and a lower side portion. Without the lock a squeezing force on the upper side portions flexes the lower side portions outward. The lock urges the upper side portions outward so as to flex the lower side portions inward. The lock reduces or eliminates freedom of movement of the tray. The system allows rapid removal and is sturdy enough to withstand forces including from various angles and leverage. The central portion may hold registration elements.
Dental framework and prosthesis
A unique CAD subtract body intended to create a design of a mating surface for a veneering overlay and a dental implant framework wherein the unique CAD subtract body is derived from a diagnostic wax-up surface model. The diagnostic wax-up surface model is created from at least one of scanning a diagnostic wax up or denture tooth set up, CAD models in a virtual set up, an intraoral scan of a diagnostic wax up or denture tooth set up taken in a patient's mouth, a CT scan or series of CT scans of a patient's mouth, a CT scan or series of CT scans with the use of a radiographic stent in a patient's mouth, and wherein the unique CAD subtract body can be used to create the tool path for the manufacturing of the veneering overlay and allows for the fabrication of a dental implant from at least one of a metallic material, a ceramic material, an acrylic material, a biocompatible material.
SYSTEM ASSEMBLY INTERFACE
A system assembly interface between a multi-part superstructure carrier, which carries a superstructure, and an implant body, which has an internal thread, is disclosed. A part of the superstructure carrier is arranged on the implant body via an implant screw bolt. The superstructure carrier comprises a superstructure main carrier and an attachment carrier that is detachably screwed to it. The system assembly interface ensures secure support of the superstructure with simple pre-assembly and final assembly. In the case of a plurality of implant bodies carrying a partial or total prosthesis, no appreciable stresses occur despite static overdetermination.
