Abstract: Various embodiments described herein generally relate to apparatuses and methods for performing bone implants such as, but not limited to, dental implants, knee and joint replacements, and various types of bone anchored prosthesis. For a better understanding of how the various apparatus and methods can be used for bone implants, an example will be given herein with respect to dental implants.
Abstract: Provided is an implant receiving apparatus (10) comprising a core (20), the core defining a first end (30) and a second end (40), a wall (50) comprising inner surface (60) and outer surface (70) and a centerline (80) extending centrally of and between the ends (30, 40), the size and shape of the core (20) defining a socket or cavity (90) adapted to receiving an implant engaging member (100), wherein the wall comprises at least one threaded bore (110) for engaging a screw retainer, the bore traversing through the wall from the inner surface to the outer surface. Also provided is an implant engaging member, an implant system comprising both an implant engaging member and implant receiving apparatus as well as kits comprising an implant receiving apparatus.
