Patent number: 11426262Abstract: Taking an intraoral scan of a patient's mouth with existing implants, creating a digital model of the patient's mouth, digitally designing a denture bar based on the digital mouth model, fabricating a physical bar based on the digital bar model, delivering the physical bar into the patient's mouth, capturing records of the patient's mouth and installed physical bar, producing a physical denture and joining it to the physical bar, and delivering the physical denture and bar into the patient's mouth, all in no more than three dental office visits. The step of digitally designing a denture bar typically includes selecting a cement gap for the abutments based on errors in the digital mouth model resulting from the intraoral scan, as well as designing lateral cement ports into the digital bar model. And the step of fabricating a physical bar typically includes using additive manufacturing such as 3D printing.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2018Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Assignee: EVOLLUTION IP HOLDINGS, INC.Inventors: Boris A.

Publication number: 20190247149Abstract: A custom dental component and scan body for supporting the soft tissue surrounding an implant that is installed in at least a portion of a patient's jaw bone during the dental restoration process. The custom dental component includes a custom subgingival emergence profile so as to support and train the surrounding soft tissue. The custom dental component, while remaining connected with the implant, is scanned or an impression is obtained. A three-dimensional digital model of the patient's detention is produced from the scan or impression. A dental design software is used to view the three-dimensional digital model. A digitally-designed custom dental component is imported in the three-dimensional digital model and aligned with the custom dental component to obtain the implant's position.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 13, 2019Publication date: August 15, 2019Applicant: EVOLLUTION IP HOLDINGS, INC.Inventor: Boris A.

Patent number: 10335254Abstract: 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.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 2016Date of Patent: July 2, 2019Assignee: EVOLLUTION IP HOLDINGS INC.Inventors: Mark N Hochman, Stephen J Chu, Jocelyn Huiping Tan-Chu, Adam J Mieleszko

Patent number: 10258434Abstract: A low profile winged impression post having snap-in features eliminates the need for individual impressions of the mandibular and maxillary arches as well as a separate bite registration when registering a dental implant. The low profile impression post is retained by a press fit which eliminates the cumbersome task of screwing in the implant post. The time and steps needed to produce a stone model for construction are shortened. The same low profile impression post can be scanned optically for accurate placement in a virtual three dimensional space model of the jaw. A physical model can be generated in rigid polymer from the virtual scan data.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 2017Date of Patent: April 16, 2019Assignee: Evollution IP Holding, Inc.Inventor: Neal B.

Publication number: 20160151127Abstract: A dental component including a universal joint. In one form, the invention relates to a cam screw for fastening a temporary tooth to an implant including a driving component, a sleeve socket and an abutment screw.
