摘要:
A dental implant has a hollow shell with outer bio-compatible surface for engaging a soft tissue socket left in gingival tissue after a tooth has been extracted, to promote healing. The shell tapers outwardly from a first to a second perimeter, the second perimeter being asymmetrically scalloped with opposite distal and mesial peaks and opposite lingual and facial valleys between the peaks. A dental implant in the bone socket left after tooth extraction is rigidly connected to a temporary post, the temporary post extending in the shell. The shell engages against the soft tissue socket without gaps and without requiring alignment between the shell and implant axes.
摘要:
Dental implant having an internal geometry and an external geometry, the external geometry comprising at least three sections. This dental implant is provided with a fixing means implemented by a fixing of the Morse cone type in order to fix thereon a prosthetic stud and comprises an ovoid shaped cervical section or a ceramic ring.

An implant (4) is provided with attachment and hole-insert parts (2, 3) with surfaces which have different degrees of finishing and/or degrees of roughness and/or porosities (2f, 2g). Arranged on the surfaces there is at least one dozen (A-B) in which the degree of finishing and/or the degree of roughness and/or the porosity is continuously changed. The changes in porosity in said zones can mirror continuous or discontinuous changes in the bone in question, for example the jaw bone or tooth bone. The continuously changed zones can be obtained with the aid of electrolyte (15) and, connected to the latter, an anode and cathode arrangement (13, 14). When establishing the porosity, it is possible to mask different portions of the respective implant and to control the temperature of the implant.

Disclosed within is a dental restorative system including a dental fixture component having a longitudinal axis, a body portion, and an emergence profile portion adjacent to the body portion. The dental fixture component also has a tapered coronal portion adjacent to the emergence profile portion, with the tapered coronal portion having one end adjacent to the emergence profile portion and a terminal end with a non-frustoconical surface and a non-circular cross section. The emergence profile portion may include one or more concave surfaces. The dental fixture component may further include an interproximally sloping margin shoulder. Certain embodiments of the dental fixture component include threaded body portions. Alternative embodiments of the dental fixture component are also disclosed.
摘要:
A ceramic implant, in particular a dental implant, is provided, which has a ceramic, endosseous surface region, in other words, which is to say a region that is intended to be embedded into the bone tissue and that is made of a ceramic material. The surface region has at least one first zone having a surface modification, in which first zone the surface is roughened or porous, and at least one second zone, in which the surface is not roughened or porous.
摘要:
Improved prosthetic attachment (1) for its securement by cementing to an aesthetic prosthetic element, in which the prosthetic attachment (1) has at least a shotpeened area (2), the rugosity of said shotpeened area (2) being comprised between Ra=0,8 μm and Ra=2,5 μm, so that the degree of union between the attachment and the aesthetic prosthetic elements cemented to the same is maximized.
摘要:
Embodiments described herein are related to fillers that are placed within an extraction site in need of bone augmentation and preservation. The fillers encourage sufficient new bone growth in order that normal jaw bone deterioration following tooth removal is prevented. The fillers create, arrange, and assemble an ideal growth environment for new bone growth to rapidly grow and preserve the original contours of an individual's jaw bone. Further embodiments described herein are related to dental implants that are arranged to provide a scaffold upon which a damaged or missing dental papilla may regrow. The dental implants may include a micro-pattern to facilitate directional cell growth.
摘要:
A dental implant has a first coronal portion having a first width and a second apical portion having a second smaller width, where a taper between the coronal and the apical portions is of constant slope. A threaded arrangement on an outer surface of the dental implant is provided with an osteoinductive growth stimulating substance located on the outer surface of the dental implant.
摘要:
The invention relates to a dental fixture for insertion into a human jawbone. The fixture comprises a bone-contacting surface, wherein at least 15% of the bone-contacting surface is designed such that when a Gaussian 50 μm high-pass filter and a Gaussian 3 μm low-pass filter is applied to an original unfiltered set of measurement data which represents a topography of said surface and which is obtained at 50 times magnification by white light interferometry, the resulting filtered set of data presents a surface roughness having the roughness average parameter Sa≧1 μm and the two-dimensional mean slope parameter Rsl≧tan 30°.
摘要:
Dental implants made at least in part of a highly porous biomaterial such as porous tantalum for enhancing the osseointegration of the dental implant into surrounding bone. For example, there is provided a dental implant which includes a core formed of with a head portion having an abutment interface and a stem portion extending from the head portion. A porous tantalum sleeve is disposed about the stem portion and occupies a substantial portion of the implant/bone interface of the implant. After implantation of the implant, bone tissue may osseointegrate into the porous tantalum sleeve to anchor the implant in position within the surrounding bone. Other embodiments of implants are provided, each implant including at least a portion thereof formed of porous tantalum for improved osseointegration.
