  • Patent number: 8591232
    Abstract: A drill for sinus membrane lift includes a contact surface for coming in face contact with sinus membrane, the contact surface having a curved periphery, and a bone-maintaining area connected to the contact surface for storing and discharging drilled bone fragments. The bone-maintaining area includes a first inside wall and a second inside wall connected to the first inside wall, the first inside wall oriented in a drilling direction, and the second inside wall opposite the first inside wall. The first inside wall has a drilling surface and is formed higher than the second inside wall so that the drilling surface is exposed in the drilling direction. The front end of the head comes into face contact with the sinus membrane at a wide area to prevent the sinus membrane from being torn or damaged even if the head completely penetrates the maxilla and contacts the sinus membrane.

  • Patent number: 8523568
    Abstract: A dental implant of the invention allows an immediate masticatory function just after being implanted in a bone structure, does not need a secondary operation, and can be effectively applied even in thin and short alveolar bone. The dental implant comprises a body portion to be inserted in the bone structure and a mounting portion integrally formed on the body portion, the body portion including a thin and short core, screw blades formed along an outer peripheral surface of the core in the shape of a wide and deep screw, and a connecting portion formed in the shape of a plurality of vertical holes and grooves and capable of containing bone growth factors. The mounting portion has a gum adhering portion to protect bone tissues and a post to be mounted with an abutment or a prosthesis thereon.

  • Publication number: 20060141418
    Abstract: A method for treating a screw-cement retained prosthesis, an abutment and an implant are disclosed. The method for treating the screw-cement retained prosthesis, which relates to an internal implant, comprises the steps of providing an abutment comprising a joining projection, repositioning the joining projection to a joining groove formed in the upper portion of a fixture, engaging the abutment to the fixture by using a screw, providing a prosthetic appliance including a screw hole, and bonding the prosthetic appliance and the abutment by interposing dental cement between the abutment and the prosthetic appliance. The present invention includes all of the advantages of screw retained prostheses and cement retained prostheses and at the same time can solve the disadvantages thereof. Using a leading inclined surface formed in the joining projection, the abutment and prosthetic appliance are easily separated from and remounted to the fixture.
