Dental implant
A dental implant is provided, wherein the dental implant includes a dental root implant. The dental root implant forms a columnar body, and two ends thereof have a tubular portion and a joint portion, respectively, wherein the tubular portion is provided with a plurality of through holes. A central groove is formed inside the tubular portion and communicates with the through holes, wherein an inner diameter of the central groove tapers from approaching the joint portion to away from the joint portion. The joint portion can be coupled to a dental crown, and the tubular portion can be coupled to a human alveolar bone. The through holes can facilitate an osseointegration of the dental root implant in the alveolar bone.
DENTAL COMPONENT FOR THE INDIVIDUAL PROSTHETIC RECONSTRUCTION OF A TOOTH
Dental component (1) for the individual prosthetic reconstruction of a tooth, intended to be received on a dental implant, comprising: a first element (3) with an angled through-passage (4), a second element (7) intended to be received against or in a dental implant (2),
Means of assembly (9, 13a-13c) between the first (3) and second (7) elements make it possible effectively to limit the removal of material to be performed in the first element (3) in order to create the angled through-passage (4).
COUPLING ELEMENT FOR DENTISTRY APPLICATIONS AND CORRESPONDING KIT
A coupling element for dentistry applications having a tubular body which forms an internal duct that is open outward at respective ends of the body. A first end forms a first inlet for the insertion in the duct of the head of a pin which can be coupled directly or indirectly to a maxillary bone tissue. The first end has a recess provided along the edge of the first inlet and forms a guiding portion for the insertion of the head of the pin; along a segment of the duct which is contiguous to the first inlet there is a protrusion which is substantially aligned longitudinally with the recess, for contrasting the accidental rotation of a ring provided with a respective discontinuity, which can be arranged in the segment in order to lock the head of the pin.
DENTAL IMPLANT
A dental implant, having a central cavity and a strength adjusting structure, is provided. A first opening of the central cavity and a second opening of the strength adjusting structure are both located on a top surface of the dental implant. The strength adjusting structure is located between the central cavity and a side surface of the dental implant. A ratio of a first depth of the strength adjusting structure in a length direction of the dental implant to a second depth of the central cavity in the length direction of the dental implant is greater than 0 and less than or equal to 0.8.
DENTAL ABUTMENT AND ABUTTING SYSTEM
A dental abutment comprising a cylindrical abutment body and a tubular reconstruction element support; the abutment body is couplable to a dental implant and comprises a flat support end, the reconstruction element support has a proximal anchoring head portion configured with at least one slot, and a distal seat end bearing flush against the flat support end of the abutment body, said reconstruction element support is further configured with an axially extending through-going head bore, whereby the reconstruction element support is coupled to the abutment body by a manipulating fastener extending through the bore, and wherein axial fastening the fastener entails radial expansion of the anchoring head.
Cementless Type Dental Implant
A cementless type dental implant includes: an abutment having vertical slits spaced apart from each other around an upper portion thereof, and having elastic coupling protrusions disposed between the vertical slits and radially providing elasticity; a crown cap having a coupling portion formed at a lower portion therein so that the upper portion of the abutment is inserted therein, having a screw hole formed at an upper portion therein, having a coupling step formed at a center therein to couple the elastic coupling protrusions of the abutment, and having a crown integrally formed outside; and an abutment screw inserted and fastened in a screw insertion hole of the abutment and having a protrusion pressing portion formed at an upper end thereof and pushing the elastic coupling protrusions radially outward when being fastened such that the elastic coupling protrusions are coupled inside the coupling step of the crown cap.
DENTURE ATTACHMENT
The present invention relates generally to a denture attachment. More particularly, the present invention relates to a denture attachment, wherein a user can detachably fasten a first fastening part coupled to a denture to a second fastening part placed on top of a natural tooth's root or implant fixture by a simple operation, and furthermore, even when occlusal force is continuously applied to the denture, the applied force can be buffered by an elastic rib structure of the attachment itself. Consequently, it is possible to extend not only lifespan of the attachment, but also lifespan of the implant fixture or natural tooth's root, and to provide superior performance with a significantly smaller volume than existing attachments, while providing excellent durability.
DENTAL IMPLANT ABUTMENT HAVING OCCLUSAL FORCE BUFFERING FUNCTION
Disclosed is a dental implant abutment having a function of buffering occlusal force transmitted through a prosthesis and configured to be elastically coupled to the prosthesis without using an adhesive. A prosthesis fastening protrusion protrudes outward from an outer surface of an upper portion thereof on which a prosthesis is mounted. The diameter of the prosthesis fastening protrusion being greater than the diameter of a portion located directly therebelow. Indentations divide the upper portion of the abutment into a plurality of sections. The indentations continuously extend downward a predetermined length from a top end surface of the abutment. A predetermined lengthwise portion of each of the indentations has a spiral or oblique shape.
BENDABLE CASTABLE ABUTMENT FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF A DENTAL PROSTHESIS FRAMEWORK
A castable abutment that includes a fixing base provided with a through hole intended for placing a fixing screw of the castable abutment to the dental implant or to the dental implant analogue; a hollow tubular wall made of castable material and connected to the fixing base, including a hollow tubular joint made up of a succession of first and second asymmetrical frustoconical rings joined in succession forming an accordion section, made of a material and thickness selected to be elastically deformable, the geometry of which enables the tubular joint to be held in an inclined position.
FLEXIBLE ABUTMENT FOR USE WITH DENTAL IMPLANT
An abutment for use in combination with a dental prosthesis and a dental implant configured for implantation in an osseous structure is provided. The abutment comprises an abutment wall comprising a flexural region comprising a shoulder portion and an abutment recess located below the shoulder portion when the abutment is in an upright position. The flexural region is configured to enable at least a vertical movement of an upper portion of the abutment relative to a lower portion of the abutment when the abutment is subjected to a loading force. There is also provided a retention assembly comprising a first member and a second member each positionable within a longitudinally extending abutment channel of an abutment in a spaced apart relationship to define an abutment chamber therebetween. A method for implanting a dental implant assembly into a mouth of a patient is also provided.
