Customized Dental Prosthesis for Periodontal or Osseointegration, and Related Systems
20180008213 · 2018-01-11 ·

A dental prosthesis to be integrated into a jaw bone cavity of a pre-identified patient. An example of a dental prosthesis includes a first manufactured portion having a surface shaped to substantially dimensionally conform three dimensionally to an undersized shape of the outer three-dimensional surface shape of a root of a tooth to be replaced, and a second manufactured portion shaped to substantially conform to the three-dimensional surface of a crown of the tooth. The outer surface of the root portion can include or be coated with a biocompatible material that is suitable to be integrated into the extraction socket and adopted by existing tissue forming the socket.

COATING OF DENTAL PROSTHETIC SURFACES COMPRISING A DISTINCT LAYER OF A SYNTHETIC HYDROXYAPATITE

Subject matter of the invention are prosthetic mouldings, which have, at least area by area, at least one layer of biomimetic apatite selected from fluorapatite, hydroxylapatite or their mixtures on their surface, wherein the surface of the mouldings has micromechanical anchoring positions at least in this area to improve mechanical connection of apatite to the surface. Another subject matter of the invention are mouldings for use in dental, prosthetic treatment for tooth loss, in particular for cellular attachment of cells to prosthetic mouldings. Moreover, subject matter of the invention is the method for the production of the prosthetic mouldings.

20230233240 · 2023-07-27 · ·

The present disclosure relates to a method of manufacture of a dental implant for a molar, including acquiring, structural data corresponding to bones of the facial skeleton, the bones of the facial skeleton being proximate the molar, selecting, as a dental implant fixation surface, a surface of the bones based upon a determined thickness of the bones, generating, based on the selected dental implant fixation surface, a contoured surface of the dental implant, and fabricating, based upon an instruction transmitted by processing circuitry, a bone plate extending from a buccal end of a cylindrical plate of the dental implant, the cylindrical plate having support lattices extending therefrom, at least one support lattice of the support lattices being arranged on a lingual end of the cylindrical plate, the cylindrical plate having an opening in a central region thereof, the opening being configured to receive a dental post.

BONE FOUNDATION GUIDE SYSTEM AND METHOD
20230225826 · 2023-07-20 ·

The invention could comprise a bone foundation guide system and a method for same, the bone foundation guide system having a bone foundation guide comprising a body that is contoured to reversibly affix to a bone segment of a dental implant surgical site, the body being further contoured accept and to guide the cutting of a portion of the bone segment from a dental implant surgical site and as well as to alternatively support a dental implant surgical guide; the dental implant surgical guide; and a bone foundation guide prosthesis as an alternative to the dental implant surgical guide, the bone foundation guide prosthesis combines with the body to accommodate the bone segment portion as placed through the body prior to the bone segment portion being removed from the dental implant site through the use of the body.

OSSEOINTEGRABLE IMPLANTS AND SCREWS COMPRISING STRUCTURALLY POROUS SURFACE, PROCESS FOR PREPARING THE IMPLANTS AND SCREWS AND USES THEREOF

The present invention relates to implantable medical devices (dental and orthopedic) (osseointegrable implants) textured by the additive manufacturing process. Such implants are prepared in such a way as to comprise a larger surface area of contact between implant/adjacent tissues, porous microstructure with complex geometry with controlled and diversified pore size, which confers several technical advantages. In addition, the present invention relates to the process of preparing said implants and/or screws with an optimized structure for accelerating osseointegration. Finally, the present invention refers to the use of said implants as carriers of drugs or cells in order to treat the site, promote its healing, tissue regeneration or promote cell growth.

Bone foundation guide system and method

A bone foundation guide system has a bone foundation guide including a body that is contoured to reversibly affix to a bone segment of a dental implant surgical site. The body is further contoured to guide the cutting of a portion of the bone segment from a dental implant surgical site and alternatively support a dental implant surgical guide. The body is further contoured to support a bone foundation guide prosthesis as an alternative to the dental implant surgical guide. The bone foundation guide prosthesis combines with the body to accommodate the bone segment portion as placed through the body prior to the bone segment portion being removed from the dental implant site through the use of the body.

DEVICE FOR RETRACTING SOFT TISSUE FOR APPOSITIONAL BONE RECONSTRUCTION

A titanium screw that permits the adaptation of PEEK (polyether ether ketone) capsules at both ends, enabling vertical and horizontal, uni or bidirectional appositional bone reconstructions. The screw has a length selected between 6, 8 and 10 mm; whereas the PEEK capsules have a diameter of 4.5 mm and a height of 1.5 mm. Accordingly, it is possible to retract the soft tissue and maintain the space necessary for bone reconstruction. By minimizing compression to the bone graft, this device optimizes tissue reconstruction, oftentimes crucial for the placement of implants.
