Abstract: A method for producing dentures uses a green compact containing a mixture of ceramic powder and a binder system. A ceramic shell for dentures can be produced from the green compact and can be shaped and can be adapted to a carrier prior to a firing step below a temperature of 1050° C.

Abstract: In a functionalization method for use in dentistry, and a method for same, the application device includes a support for receiving a partially processed shaped dental part for producing a dental restoration, and a dispensing device for the at least partial infiltration of a functionalization material onto the surface of the shaped dental part.

Abstract: In a shell for adapting a retention element to an anchoring element, and a method of forming a further retention element on an anchoring element including a shell, the shell has an internal cavity, the dimensions of which are matched to the external dimensions of the retention element and which is connectable to the retention element in an integral or form-fitting manner, and has an outer surface which is formed as a further retention element.

Abstract: A fastening device for a dental prosthesis, in particular for use with a plurality of implants in the mouth of a patient, has a lower part, which is connectable to an implant along a first axis and has a holding element which is arranged along a second axis and is enclosed by an upper part, wherein the upper part is suitable for connection to a dental prosthesis, wherein an adhesion gap is formed between upper part and lower part and, after introduction of an adhesive material, permits a compensation between upper part and lower part.

Abstract: A dental prosthesis arrangement includes a lower part assigned to a jaw implant and an upper part assigned to a superstructure. The lower part engages in the upper part along a central axis. The lower part is supported against the upper part at several contact faces. The lower part and the upper part are connected releasably to each other via a securing device which provides a retaining force against axial withdrawal of the upper part from the lower part. A first radially inwardly directed structure is provided on the lower part and a second radially outwardly directed structure is provided on the upper part for receiving a holding element that provides the retaining force. A fastener passing through the upper part and connected to the lower part can alternatively fix the upper part to the lower part.

Abstract: A cap for fastening a denture on an anchoring element has a projecting part pointing radially inwards which co-operates with a circumferential groove on the anchoring element, thus forming a retention element such that the cap can be releasably fastened on the anchoring element. The cap has a conical end portion located below the retention element, the end portion at least partially surrounding, in the fastened state, a corresponding outer surface of the anchoring element.

Abstract: A ceramic shell for producing a dental prosthesis, particularly for veneering a dental scaffold or as a full ceramic dental prosthesis, is produced by a method wherein the ceramic shell is manufactured in the form of a green compact from a ceramic powder and a binder system such that the ceramic shell can be shaped flexibly and can be adjusted plastically to adapt to a body.

Abstract: The invention relates to an anchoring element for a dental prosthetic arrangement, which anchoring element can be anchored in a jaw bone or implant in a first subregion (TB1) and is suitable for receiving or forming a dental prosthetic element (ZK) in a second subregion (TB2), wherein the anchoring element has, between the first subregion (TB1) and the second subregion (TB2), a radially projecting collar (KR) which at least partially encloses the circumference of the anchoring element, such that the region above the collar (KR) of the anchoring element is at least in part fully covered with a thermoplastic material. The invention further relates to a method for producing an abutment or implant, and to a method for producing a dental prosthetic arrangement using the abutment.

Abstract: A dental prosthetic arrangement and a dental prosthetic system include a combination of a lower part assigned to a jaw implant and an upper part assigned to a prosthesis body in a connection section, wherein in particular two bearing faces are produced in the connection section when in the connected state, the bearing faces being cylindrical, preferably circular-cylindrical in relation to a center axis and being spaced apart from each other in the axial direction. The axial extent of the cylindrical bearing faces is advantageously small compared to the axial extent of the connection section. The two cylindrical bearing faces are preferably situated in axially opposite end regions of the connection section and are connected to each other by approximately conical wall faces of a cut-out in the upper part and a projection of the lower part that projects into the latter.

Abstract: A semi-finished product produces dental prostheses, in particular abutments, and a method produces a semi-finished product for manufacturing dental prostheses. The semi-finished product includes a base body (GK) which has a channel (KA) passing through the base body (GK), a hollow-cylindrical anchoring element being embodied on the inner surface thereof (IF). The base body (GK) covers the anchoring element (VA) at least partially over the whole area with a thermoplastic synthetic material.

Abstract: A dental prosthesis arrangement is composed of at least one jaw implant with a superstructure, which are connected to each other in a connection portion via a lower part assigned to the jaw implant and an upper part assigned to the superstructure. In the connection portion, the lower part engages in the upper part along a central axis. The lower part is supported against the upper part at several contact faces. The lower part and the upper part are connected releasably to each other via a securing device which provides a retaining force against axial withdrawal of the upper part from the lower part, wherein different securing devices can be selected if a first radially inwardly directed structure is provided on the lower part and a second radially outwardly directed structure is provided on the upper part for receiving a holding element and can be fixed by at least one further element passing through the upper part and connected to the lower part.

Abstract: The invention relates to an angled abutment for a dental-prosthetic arrangement, in which the abutment is divided into a first sub-component and a second sub-component, wherein the first sub-component can be fixed by means of a fixing screw to an implant and has a tool opening through which a tool is able to engage to reach the screw head of the fixing screw. After the first sub-component has been fixed to an implant, the second sub-component can be connected to the first sub-component, preferably via a screwed connection, and at the same time completely covers the tool opening of the first sub-component. A retaining structure facing away from the first sub-component is formed on the second sub-component and interacts with a counter-retaining structure on a prosthesis to provide a releasable connection, which can be produced without tools, between the abutment and the prosthesis.
