20220361989 · 2022-11-17 ·

Dental implant and superstructure each with an interface that allows direct attachment of the superstructure to the dental implant without the use of an abutment. The dental implant comprises an anti-rotation element that is arranged in the opening and is configured to prevent the superstructure from rotating about a longitudinal axis relative to the dental implant. The superstructure comprises an interface corresponding to the anti-rotation element, having a recess with two mutually opposite side flanks which are at a first distance from each other in a first region and, in a second region which is at a greater distance from the longitudinal axis than the first region, are at a second distance from each other, the second distance being smaller than the first distance.

Two-part modelling aid

A two part modelling aid for connection to a dental implant component including a hollow base part and a hollow angled part, each including a tubular side wall extending between apical and coronal ends. The base part side wall includes an anti-rotation section including a non-circular symmetric cross-section in a plane perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the base part. The angled part side wall forms an apical portion that extends along a first axis and is sized and shaped to form a friction fit with the base part, and a coronal portion extending along a second axis non-coaxial to the first axis. When connected, a closed channel is formed extending from the base part to the angled part, and the first axis of the apical portion is coaxial to the longitudinal axis of the base part and the anti-rotation section is exposed on a base part surface.

DENTAL IMPLANT ABUTMENT WITH ENHANCED SHOCK DISTRIBUTION FUNCTION
20220338963 · 2022-10-27 ·

An implant abutment according to the present invention is a dental implant abutment with an enhanced shock distribution function, the dental implant abutment comprising: an upper coupling portion that is an upper portion coupled to an artificial tooth; a lower coupling portion that is a lower portion coupled to a fixture, and an exposed portion that is exposed to the outside between the upper coupling portion and the lower coupling portion and has a plurality of flow grooves. By forming a plurality of grooves in the exposed portion of the implant abutment, the exposed portion of the implant abutment performs a shock distribution function as if it shakes elastically and distributes an occlusal force of teeth exerted to the implant, thereby providing a buffering function of relieving an impact on an area where the implant is inserted.

A dental implant includes an insert element of a titanium-based material inserted and soldered into a blind hole in an anchoring element of a ceramic. The insert element has spacer members to center it in the blind hole, with a uniform circumferential gap space relative to the anchoring element. A portion of the insert element protrudes outwardly beyond an end face of the anchoring element. The blind hole is partly filled with a glass solder, and the insert element is inserted into the blind hole, whereby some of the glass solder is displaced out of the gap space onto the end face of the anchoring element and the protruding portion of the insert element. A thermal soldering process secures the insert element into the anchoring element. The protruding portion of the insert element and remaining excess solder are removed to form a planar surface.
