Apparatus and method for installing a multi-tooth dental prosthesis in one session are shown and described. A first tool attaches to the jawbone, and serves as a foundation for subsequently used guides. Existing teeth and dental fixtures are removed, and the bone tissue is removed to accommodate the prosthesis. Subsequently, a drill guide is used to drill implant holes. An abutment guide is then used to place abutments. Copings are then installed. Next, the prosthesis may be installed and cemented to the copings. A resinous filler material may be applied to fill gaps and holes in and between the copings and the prosthesis, and is sanded smooth.

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.

The present disclosure discloses an implant packaging bottle, which includes a bottle body; a bottle cap, wherein the bottle cap has a bottle cap body detachably connected with one end of the bottle body and an implant support frame configured to extend into the bottle body; an electrified base, which is provided at the other end of the bottle body; an implant bracket detachably connected to the implant support frame, wherein the implant can be installed on the implant bracket; and an ultraviolet light source configured to be provided in the bottle body, wherein the ultraviolet light source is electrically connected to the electrified base, and a plurality of ultraviolet light sources are provided; and when the implant support frame is extended into the bottle body, a plurality of ultraviolet light sources are provided around the implant on the implant bracket.

A double packaging structure for an object, which may be a sterile object, includes a hollow external container having a closed first end, an open second end and walls, and an internal container disposed inside the external container. The internal container includes a hollow body and a cap. The object is intended to be received in the body. To close its first end, the external container has a membrane capable of deforming when pressure is applied to the membrane. The membrane is configured so that a pressure applied to its outer face, along the longitudinal axis, pushes its inner face against the inner container and causes the inner container to exit at the second end of the external container in the absence of a closure system at the second end.

Packaging systems for dental implants and methods for implanting a packaged implant are provided herein. The packaging system includes a housing and a cap forming an enclosure for a dental implant and corresponding healing screw. The housing includes a first and second base portion that interact with a platform that receives a portion of the dental implant to present the dental implant to a user during use.

A rack organizes dental implant containers both when housed within intermediate packaging and when removed therefrom, being arranged according to a tooth intended to receive the dental implant within the container. The rack includes: upper and lower flanges, and a connecting flange that separates the upper and lower flanges. The upper flange and connecting flange are each formed with a plurality of openings shaped to receive the dental implant container therethrough when the container is removed from the intermediate packaging. The openings may each have first and second slots to accommodate receiving a container therethrough when housed within intermediate packaging. The lower flange may removably couple to a base with a plurality of recesses, being usable to assist with restorative procedures relating to fixing dental implants, and may be removably coupled to the lower flange with the plurality recesses aligned with a plurality of openings in the lower flange.

The invention relates to a device for holding and releasing an object, comprising a main body comprising a housing to at least partially accommodate said object and an opening to enable at least a portion of the object to be removed, a lid that can be moved from a closed position preventing access to said opening and an open position enabling access to said opening, and a stop mechanism designed such that it can be moved to different positions relative to the main body towards the opening of said main body, but blocked in the other direction, to enable the stop mechanism to be brought into contact with or close to the object while preventing any recoil of the stop mechanism. The invention also relates to a corresponding production method and release methods.

Systems and methods are disclosed for sterile delivery of prostheses that protect refined and/or conditioned surface properties and thereby reduce aging of surface properties in prostheses. An example of the system includes a partially custom-shaped holder that also serves as an insertion tool that holds a customized dental prosthesis in a pre-defined position inside a titanium container that is hermetically sealed. Container materials serve as a getter or catalyst with respect to the osseoconductive surface. An example of the method includes laser welding to hermetically seal a metal container as packaging for a prosthesis with a metal foil, and the sterilization of the packaged and sealed prosthesis with dry heat.

A hydrogel comprising a colloidal suspension of M.sup.I.sub.XM.sup.II.sub.YP.sub.Z two-dimensional nanocrystals in water, wherein M.sup.I is Na.sup.+ and/or Li.sup.+, M.sup.II is Mg.sup.2+ or a mixture of Mg.sup.2+ with one or more Ni.sup.2+, Zn.sup.2+, Cu.sup.2+, Fe.sup.2+ and/or Mn.sup.2+, P is a mixture of dibasic phosphate ions (HPO.sub.4.sup.2−) and tribasic phosphate ions (PO.sub.4.sup.3−). X ranges from about 0.43 to about 0.63, Y ranges from about 0.10 to about 0.18, Z ranges from about 0.29 to about 0.48, X, Y, Z being mole fractions, is provided.

A guided dental implant shield having an implant connector piece where the implant is positioned and an inner shield where the implant connector piece is placed in such a way to grasp the implant, an outer shield with monolithic structure which moves by sliding on the inner shield and guides it at an angle inside the cavity opening to the jawbone, and which has an angled part at its lower end, and a cap which is positioned under the outer shield in such a way to isolate the implant inside the shields.
