A dental implant has a core manufactured in metal and a sleeve having an internal wall and nested by sliding on an upper part of the core in such a manner that the internal wall is located faced to that upper part of the core, which sleeve is manufactured from ceramic or Peek, a gap being left between the core and the internal wall of the sleeve in such a manner that an adhesive layer can be lodged in a space formed by the presence of that gap, wherein said gap has a distance situated between 5 and 30 μm, in particular between 10 and 20 μm.

The present disclosure relates to a coating method of implant using parylene, for coating a surface of a dental implant, including a pretreating step of pretreating the implant; and a coating step of coating a surface of the pretreated implant with a coating material to form a polymer coating layer, wherein the coating material is provided as parylene.

According to the present disclosure, a parylene thin film may be uniformly coated on the surface of the dental implant, and according to such a thin film, the growth of anaerobic bacteria can be effectively inhibited in spaces where the fixture and the upper structure of the dental implant are joined to each other, and where the upper structure and the crown are joined to each other.

Provided is an apparatus for treating a surface of a medical metal. The apparatus includes a lamp unit in which a through-hole is formed and which irradiates the through-hole with ultraviolet rays, a lifting unit on which a container accommodating a medical metal is detachably disposed and which is disposed to be movable in the through-hole, and a case unit which accommodates the lamp unit and the lifting unit and includes an outer case in which an outer hole corresponding to the through-hole is formed and an inner case which is disposed inside the outer case and in which the lamp unit or the lifting unit is disposed.

A dental attachment assembly is provided, including an abutment member and a male member. The abutment member may include an outer locating surface portion having at least two axially spaced retention portions having two generally rounded, annular projections. The male member for engagement over the outer locating surface of the abutment member may include an upper end and a continuous, unbroken skirt having a rounded, convex outer surface. The male member may be constructed from a rigid material and have at least two axially spaced, snap engaging formations on the inner surface of the skirt for snap engagement with the respective retention portions of the abutment member.

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.

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.

Compositions and methods for inhibiting and interrupting biofilm formation, and for destabilizing established biofilms are provided, the novel compositions including polymeric resins and monomeric non-polymerizable and polymerizable resins. More particularly, the compositions and methods enable the protection and removal of biofilms from surfaces in the context of medical, consumer, domestic, food service, environmental and industrial applications, where the effects constitute beneficial and desirable biofilm attenuating activity.

The present invention discloses a connected structure of a porous surface structure and a substrate, a method for preparing the same, and a prosthesis of the same. The connected structure consists of a pre-connected or integrally formed composite body of a porous surface structure and an intermediate; and a substrate, which is connected to said intermediate to achieve the connection of said composite body to the said substrate; the composite body comprising a first composite region corresponding to a first stiffness; a remaining composite region in the composite body other than the first composite region, which at least contains a second composite region corresponding to a second stiffness; and the first stiffness is less than the second stiffness. The present invention achieves a fastened connection between the composite and the substrate and largely maintains the mechanical properties of the substrate; and it provides a prosthesis with excellent bone ingrowth properties and that the strength of the substrate is not substantially affected.

Antibacterial coatings and methods of making the antibacterial coatings are described herein. A first branched polyethylenimine (BPEI) layer is formed and a first glyoxal layer is formed on a surface of the BPEI layer. The first BPEI layer and the first glyoxal layer are cured to form a crosslinked BPEI coating. The first BPEI layer can be modified with superhydrophobic moieties, superhydrophilic moieties, or negatively charged moieties to increase the antifouling characteristics of the coating. The first BPEI layer can be modified with contact-killing bactericidal moieties to increase the bactericidal characteristics of the coating.

The composition and method of the invention relate to dental implant or orthognathic implant, graft materials and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) applications in the field of dental and jaw health. The invention particularly relates to a therapeutic composition comprising at least one anti-sclerostin antibody and at least one anti dickkopf-1 antibody in combination for increasing osseointegration and accelerating healing in dental implantation and bone volume augmentation in filling of insufficient bone sites, and methods of local administration thereof.
