Dental implant
A dental implant including a core; at least one screw thread; a first and second region; a central axis; the surface of the core defining an angle with the central axis in the first region and with the central axis in the second region; and the surface of the screw thread defining an angle with the central axis in the first region and with the central axis in the second region. The diameter of the core decreases at a rate in the first region towards the apical end such that the core defining angle is greater than the screw thread defining angle, and the diameter of the core decreases at a rate in the second region towards the apical end such that the core defining angle is the same as the screw thread defining angle. Furthermore, an implant including at least one helical chamber including a depth and length.
Ceramic bodies having antimicrobial properties and methods of making the same
A method for making a ceramic body comprised of a ceramic material having an inhibitory effect on bacterial growth is provided. A dental prosthesis may be made of a ceramic material that comprises a molybdenum-containing component on a portion of the prosthesis that contacts the gingival surface of a patient. In one method, a porous zirconia ceramic structure is shaped in the form of a dental prosthesis, and then infiltrated with a molybdenum-containing composition, before sintering to densify the ceramic structure.
Dental implant platform and connection
This new dental implant Art is physiobiological driven designed to achieve the optimal healing and longevity of bone and gingiva architecture around the dental implant platform and connection. The new invention extends the internal connection planes of dental implant from bone level to soft tissue level vertically while keeping the external outline planes at mismatch with the external planes of the dental implants body that design to be placed in bone
The new invention would improve the current and prior Art and provide unlimited possibility.
Passive fit of implant bridges and implant bars by means of a CAD/CAM tool for the model-free creation of implant-supported restorations
The invention relates to a specimen part for creating a stress-free fit, a so-called passive fit, of implant-supported and/or abutment-supported bridges and bars by means of a CAD/CAM tool for the creation of restorations, and to a method for creating a restoration from a digital model of a patient's jaw provided with at least two implants and/or abutments. The model is determined by means of an intraoral scan. In order to improve the precision of restorations and to shorten the production process, provision is made that the specimen part per implant and/or abutment has a scannable structure, preferably at a defined distance and angle to the implant and/or abutment.
Implant, implantation device, implantation method
An implant suitable for being anchored with the aid of mechanical vibration in an opening provided in bone tissue. The implant is compressible in the direction of a compression axis under local enlargement of a distance between a peripheral implant surface and the compression axis. The implant includes a coupling-in face which serves for coupling a compressing force and the mechanical vibrations into the implant, which coupling-in face is not parallel to the compression axis. The implant also includes a thermoplastic material which, in areas of the local distance enlargement, forms at least a part of the peripheral surface of the implant.
Integrated support device for providing temporary primary stability to dental implants and prosthesis, and related methods
Integrated support devices for providing temporary primary stability to a dental prosthesis implant, each individually designed and manufactured for a specific pre-identify patient are also provided. An integrated support device can include a prosthesis interface member configured to connect to an abutment or reduced sized portion of a dental prosthesis/implant. The integrated support device also includes one or more bonding wings for connecting to the adjacent healthy teeth.
Custom dental implant and method and system for making a custom dental implant
A custom dental implant and a method and system for making the custom dental implant having one or more energy storing devices that deflect during installation and expand to provide stability after insertion in a natural dental socket of a patient.
Surgical tool with flexible shaft
An implant system can include a first rotatable flexible shaft comprising a biocompatible material and configured to be used as an implant for placement in the human body, the implant including an implant driving element positioned at a proximal end; a second rotatable flexible shaft including a cutting drill positioned at a distal end and a drill driving element positioned at a proximal end; and a surgical tool capable of being connected, in the alternative, to the drill driving element for forming a recessed surgical site and to the implant driving element for placing the implant in the recessed surgical site.
Implant, and method and system for producing such an implant
In a method and system for producing an implant, the latter is designed with one or more surfaces extending in the longitudinal direction of the implant. Two or three production stages can be used. In one stage, either a topography with a long wave pattern is produced by means of cutting work, or laser bombardment or further cutting work is used to produce a topography with an intermediate-length wave pattern. In addition, an oxidation process or shot-peening or etching is used to produce an outer layer. When using two of said production stages, said cutting work or said laser bombardment or further cutting work is followed by the oxidation process or the shot-peening or etching method. When using all three production stages, cutting work is followed by laser bombardment, or further cutting work, which in turn is followed for example by the oxidation process. The invention also relates to an implant which is produced using the method and is identified, ordered and produced using the system. The invention permits effective treatment of different implant situations.
Fixture
The present invention relates to a fixture for insertion into a bore hole arranged in bone tissue, comprising a threaded leading portion and a threaded trailing portion located coronally of the leading portion, wherein the threading of the leading portion has at least one first thread spiral, wherein the threading of the trailing portion has at least one more thread spiral than the threading in the leading portion, wherein the threading of the trailing portion and the threading of the leading portion have the same or substantially the same lead, wherein the profile of at least one of the thread spirals in the trailing portion is, at least along a portion of its length, substantially the same as the profile of the outermost parts of said first thread spiral in the leading portion, and wherein the at least one thread spiral in the trailing portion having substantially the same profile as the outermost part of said first thread spiral in the leading portion is arranged to follow the spiral path of that thread spiral.
