An orthopedic implant includes a main body, which has a downward tapered configuration formed of a plurality of steps of different diametrical sizes arranged along a drilling axis, each of the steps includes a cylindrical and a conical section, and the conical section of the lowest and diametrically smallest step is downward tapered into an apex; an external thread, which is externally formed on the main body to cover all the cylindrical sections but not the conical sections; a plurality of lateral cutting flutes, which are formed on the external thread into the main body and extended from the apex to the diametrically largest step with a spacing distance left between upper ends of the lateral cutting flutes and a top of the largest step. The orthopedic implant can be independently driven into a bone without the need of bone cutting using drill bits in advance and enables good osseointegration.

A dental implant includes an insertion portion which extends along an implant axis, and a coronal projection for receiving an abutment having a dental prosthesis formed thereon, which can be mounted on the dental implant with a screw. The insertion portion includes a coronal region and an apical region. The coronal projection extends from the coronal region of the insertion portion in the coronal direction and along a prosthesis axis. The coronal projection and the insertion portion are integrally connected in one piece. The prosthesis axis and the implant axis are inclined towards each other, and the abutment having the dental prosthesis formed thereon is attachable to the dental implant with only one screwing operation in the direction of the prosthesis axis.

A dental implant whereby an osteotomy cavity is formed in jawbone and then a base member of the implant is positioned into the cavity. The base member serves as a platform to secure an abutment member of the implant that in turn receives a dental restoration, such as a crown or denture.

The present invention provides Dental implant configured to be inserted into a hole in jaw bone and to be at least partially situated in bone tissue when implanted, comprising:

a coronal implant region, the surface of which is at least partly covered by an oxide layer with an average thickness in the range from 60 nm to 170 nm and has an average arithmetical mean height Sa in the range from 0.1 μm to 1.0 μm. Further provided is a component for dental applications, preferably dental abutment, wherein the surface of the component is at least partly covered by an oxide layer with an average thickness in the range from 60 nm to 170 nm and has an average arithmetical mean height Sa in the range from 0.05 μm to 0.5 μm and an implant system comprising the dental implant and the component. Method for forming a protective layer on the surface of an implantable or implant component, the method comprising a) applying a solution on the surface of component, the solution having a pH at 25° C. of 6.8 or less and b) drying the solution applied in step a) to form a protective layer on the surface of the component for dental applications. Finally, part of the present invention is an implantable or implant component having a protective layer obtainable as above and a use of such layer for storage.

The present invention relates to a dental implant and a replacement ring. The dental implant has an insertion portion for anchoring in a jaw bone. The replacement ring serves for replacing a subtractively removable annular material region in a coronal region of the insertion portion. The shape of the replacement ring is inscribable into the shape of the dental implant in the coronal region at least to some extent such that an inner lateral surface of the replacement ring lies within the shape of the dental implant.

A dental anchor that is easily planted into a target space created by a lost tooth is presented. The dental anchor has a root portion made to extend into and contact bone tissue and a trunk portion directly attached to the root portion and disposed above gumline. A dental anchor planting apparatus that facilitates the precise planting of the dental anchor is also presented. The apparatus includes a main support and a chinrest, an impression tray, a dental anchor, and a nose bridge support all connected to the main support. The dental anchor of the disclosure may be used instead of a traditional dental implant to shorten procedure time and lower risks of infection and bone damage.

An orthodontic implant structure (2) that is used by being implanted in bone in an oral cavity includes a first screw (6, 6B) having a screw body (6b) and an engaging portion (14), a plate securing implement (12, 13), a second screw, and a base plate having a first surface (4p) and a second surface (4q) and in which a first attachment hole (24A, 24B) and a second attachment hole (26) are formed.

An implant abutment is disclosed. An implant abutment for connecting a fixture and an artificial prosthesis, according to one embodiment of the present invention, comprises: an abutment lower part coupled to the fixture; an abutment upper part coupled to the artificial prosthesis, wherein the abutment lower part and the abutment upper part are integrally formed or separately coupled; and a small-movement part, which is interposed between the abutment upper part and the abutment lower part or disposed on a portion or all of the abutment upper part.

The present invention provides Dental implant configured to be inserted into a hole in jaw bone and to be at least partially situated in bone tissue when implanted, comprising: a coronal implant region, the surface of which is at least partly covered by an oxide layer with an average thickness in the range from 60 nm to 170 nm and has an average arithmetical mean height Sa in the range from 0.1 μm to 1.0 μm. Further provided is a component for dental applications, preferably dental abutment, wherein the surface of the component is at least partly covered by an oxide layer with an average thickness in the range from 60 nm to 170 nm and has an average arithmetical mean height Sa in the range from 0.05 μm to 0.5 μm and an implant system comprising the dental implant and the component. Method for forming a protective layer on the surface of an implantable or implant component, the method comprising a) applying a solution on the surface of component, the solution having a pH at 25° C. of 6.8 or less and b) drying the solution applied in step a) to form a protective layer on the surface of the component for dental applications. Finally, part of the present invention is an implantable or implant component having a protective layer obtainable as above and a use of such layer for storage.

A custom implant fixture which comprises a first fixture part having a first transverse section determined by a shape covered by an alveolar bone of a tooth to be extracted; and a second fixture part formed so as to extend from the first fixture part, determined from the position and the direction of a root portion of the tooth with respect to the alveolar bone, and having a second transverse section.
