  • Patent number: 8647117
    Abstract: The invention concerns bone-adaptive surface structures for lateral jaw implants. Micromechanical and/or macromechanical surface structures having various body forms are incorporated into selected segments of the surface of the base and of the bar that connects the threaded piece with the base to accelerate the healing process after the implant is inserted into the jaw bone and to make a critical improvement in holding the implant firmly in place without rotation.

  • Publication number: 20130216976
    Abstract: The invention relates to a self-tapping screw implant, comprising a shaft, at the distal end of which a prosthetic head for receiving artificial teeth or bridges, partial or full prostheses, or the retaining constructions thereof, is provided, and at the proximal end of which a self-tapping thread having at least one half 180° turn, in particular a 360° turn, for screwing into the bone substance is provided, wherein the ratio of the outside diameter of the thread to the outside diameter of the shaft of the self-tapping screw implant ranges between 3 and 15, in particular between 4.5 and 13.5, preferably approximately 5, and the distal region of the shaft without thread and the proximal region of the shaft with thread have approximately the same or a similar axial length +/? max. 10%, and recesses are provided in the radially inner region of the turns of the thread, and the radially outer region of the thread turns and the shaft are substantially free of recesses.

  • Publication number: 20110166572
    Abstract: A bone fixation apparatus and method includes basal implants dimensioned to be installed in bone through lateral insertion into a T-shaped slot. The implants serve as anchors for mounting plates to be placed on either side of a fracture. The mounting plates or anchors may be a mount to which a stabilizing fixation rod, plate, prosthesis, dental prosthesis or other mesiostructure is attached.

  • Patent number: 7909605
    Abstract: An enossal screw implant is inserted cortically into the jawbone as an implant base and a mount for the superstructure of a tooth replacement or a substructure. A break point is provided in the abutment head above a bending zone. Key surfaces are above and below the break point. Solutions to ease adjustment of the inserted implant to the natural tooth position and which can reduce the danger of loosening of the inserted implant in the jawbone are coated on the implant.

  • Patent number: 7556500
    Abstract: Bone-adaptive surface structures are provided for lateral jaw implants. Micromechanical and/or macromechanical surface structures having various body forms are incorporated into selected segments of the surface of a base and of a bar that connects a shaft with the base to accelerate the healing process after the implant is inserted into the jaw bone and to make a critical improvement in holding the implant firmly in place without rotation. A process of manufacturing the surface structures includes forming a macromechanical surface on the implant to increase its surface area; and superimposing micromechanical canals on the macromechanical surface, the canals having a size smaller than the minimum size of the osteons in the bone into which the implant is to be inserted.

  • Publication number: 20090081613
    Abstract: Implant analog for custom production of prosthetic superstructures for inserted dental implants, inserted into a master cast directly or indirectly via a model sleeve comprising an implant head equipped with elements to hold and fasten an implant system; a base of said implant analog having a cross section that tapers over at least part of its length; an implant head having a working surface and a connecting piece; a tenon-like projection on a bottom end surface of said implant head; and an external thread dimensioned to connect with a screw element. The analog may be removable through the bottom of the base.

  • Publication number: 20070299535
    Abstract: The invention is an enossal implant with a coating that accelerates the healing-in process and counteracts demineralization of the bone when the cavities that are necessary for insertion of the implant are made. The invention elevates the osmotic pressure in the immediate vicinity of a freshly inserted implant so as to compensate quickly for the loss of salts and minerals of the chemical compounds and minerals contained in the bone and the bone fluid when the cavity is made. The surface of the implant may be, for example, coated with a dry crust of soluble NaCl crystals, which dissolves gradually after the insertion.
