    摘要: Disclosed are apparatuses and techniques for distalizing, mesializing and/or expanding teeth in the upper or lower dental arch of a patient's mouth to make room for crowded or protruded teeth located in the anterior arch region to distally/mesially and/or laterally shift into. In some aspects, an apparatus includes a body; a first arm coupled to an adjustment mechanism of the body and attachable to a molar; a second arm coupled to the apparatus body and attachable to a non-molar tooth; and an anchorage device attachable to a bone in the mouth, which the first arm is configured to transfer a force onto the molar when the adjustment mechanism is actuated to cause movement of the molar in the dental arch, and which the anchorage device is operable to positionally stabilize the body and the second arm to prevent movement of the non-molar tooth in the dental arch.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present invention provide an osseointegrative implant and related tools, components and fabrication techniques for surgical bone fixation and dental restoration purposes. In one embodiment an all-ceramic single-stage threaded or press-fit implant is provided having finely detailed surface features formed by ceramic injection molding and/or spark plasma sintering of a powder compact or green body comprising finely powdered zirconia. In another embodiment a two-stage threaded implant is provided having an exterior shell or body formed substantially entirely of ceramic and/or CNT-reinforced ceramic composite material. The implant may include one or more frictionally anisotropic bone-engaging surfaces. In another embodiment a densely sintered ceramic implant is provided wherein, prior to sintering, the porous debound green body is exposed to ions and/or particles of silver, gold, titanium, zirconia, YSZ, α-tricalcium phosphate, hydroxyapatite, carbon, carbon nanotubes, and/or other particles which remain lodged in the implant surface after sintering. Optionally, at least the supragingival portions of an all-ceramic implant are configured to have high translucence in the visible light range. Optionally, at least the bone-engaging portions of an all-ceramic implant are coated with a fused layer of titanium oxide.

    摘要: Disclosed is a dental prosthetic device having an implant, a cap and an abutment interposed between the implant and the cap. The abutment includes an abutment head which is at least partially delimited by an abutment external face and which is configured to retain the cap. The abutment has an abutment body with an attachment to the implant. Retention is accomplished by a nesting arraignment for fitting the abutment head inside a cavity which is formed inside the cap and which is at least partially delimited by a cap internal face. The cap is screwed onto the abutment head. The cap internal face is provided with a tab which is in contact against the abutment external face. A space is left between a point of contact of the cap internal face and a cone lip of the cap internal face between the abutment external face and the cap internal face.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a dental implant set, more precisely to a zygomatic dental implant set for in-bone dental implant surgeries of the zygomatic arch via intraoral access. The zygomatic dental implant set (100) comprises an implant pin (10) configured to be anchored in the zygomatic bone; an intermediate connecting member (20) comprising a curved shape; wherein a first end (21) of the intermediate connecting member (20) is configured to be coupled directly or indirectly to the implant pin (10); a first extender (30), wherein the first extender (30) is coupled to a second end (22) of the intermediate connecting member (20); a prosthetic abutment (40), wherein a first end (41) of the prosthetic abutment (40) comprises an outer thread (42), wherein the outer thread (42) of the prosthetic abutment (40) is coupled to a first inner thread (23) of the intermediate connecting member (20); and wherein a second end (43) of the prosthetic abutment (40) is configured to receive a dental prosthesis.

    摘要: A medical implant has a textured tissue contact surface comprising a roughened surface that includes a plurality of macroscale and microscale projections and recesses and a plurality of nanostructures on the projections and within the recesses. The nanostructures comprise a plurality of spaced elongated waves, each wave having a crest and a trough. Each wave and recess comprise a plurality of individual polygonal structures, some of which comprise pyramidical-type shapes. The textured tissue contact surface is formed by initially laser ablating a tissue contact surface on the implant with a nanosecond pulsed laser followed by laser ablating the initially ablated surface with a femto-second pulsed laser.

    摘要: A dental implant that facilitate insertion and can be used in all bone types. The implant includes a body having a coronal end, and an apical end opposite the coronal end. A tapered region may be adjacent the apical end. On the apical part one or more taps are provided so the tap is cutting when rotating, clockwise and counter-clockwise. The implant can have at least one variable profile helical thread that extends along the tapered region. The implant can have also micro-threads below the main threads, a gradual compressing tapered core, a self drilling apical end and a narrow coronal region.

    摘要: A multi-unit abutment aligning a dental implant and a screw-attached prosthesis with copings is disclosed. The multi-unit abutment has a threaded base post for attachment to the implant and a ball portion. A swivel post into the implant with the multi-unit assembly in a linear configuration. The swivel shell is then positioned and fixed at a desired tilt and azimuthal angle. The swivel shell has a mating surface for a coping. The lock screw remains accessible through an aperture in the coping when the prosthesis is positioned on the implant abutments. Different embodiments are disclosed for capturing the swivel shell on the ball. Methods for improving passive alignment of the prosthesis to the implants are described.

    摘要: Provided is a plasma treatment apparatus that does not use a separate process gas by discharging low-pressure atmosphere formed in a sealed space in which a plasma surface treatment is performed. Therefore, by discharging the low-pressure atmosphere using a relatively low voltage, stable plasma with high surface treatment efficiency may be generated, and thus a plasma treatment apparatus may be configured economically and no operation and management costs due to the use of a process gas are incurred. Also, the safety and the effectiveness of a plasma surface treatment process to be applied in the medical industry are secured, and sterility may be secured and usability may be maximized.
