  • Publication number: 20200138552
    Abstract: The present application relates to an abutment system (12) and its use. The abutment system (12) comprises: a soft tissue level abutment part (10) adapted to be attached to a bone level dental implant (40) by means of an abutment screw (56), wherein the abutment system is adapted to selectively support both a cement-retained final restoration (66) and a screw-retained prosthetic component (68; 70). The present application also relates to dental methods.

  • Patent number: 10251974
    Abstract: Described herein is a method that comprises: —placing a bone material, containing hydroxyapatite and organic substances, in contact with an extraction liquid that gives rise to a first liquid phase, containing the organic substances and possibly impurities extracted from the bone material, and a second solid hydroxyapatite phase, containing the hydroxyapatite; and —separating the liquid phase and the solid hydroxyapatite phase. The extraction liquid is an aqueous extraction solution brought to a temperature between 150° C. and 300° C. and a pressure between 150 kPa and 350 kPa.

  • Publication number: 20170215995
    Abstract: The invention relates to a dental implant consisting of an anchoring body defined between an apical end and a cervical end, wherein said anchoring body is a body having a first predetermined length and, on the outer surface thereof and along the entirety of said first predetermined length, at least one thread, wherein said anchoring body has, over at least a coronal portion, a portion of said at least one thread that has a nominal diameter that is greater than an outer diameter of said anchoring body at a first ratio of 2.00 to 4.00, preferably 2.00 to 3.00.

  • Publication number: 20070072149
    Abstract: The invention relates to a trans-mucosal component for a dental implant intended to support a prosthetic installation. The trans-mucosal component has been designed for the purpose of improving the quality and stability of the biological adhesion of the junctional epithelium and of the connective tissue and wherein the trans-mucosal component (2) is provided with a waist-shaped or inwardly narrowed part for reducing the necessary height of the trans-mucosal component and creating a volume for generation of a stabilizing and retentive belt of soft tissue. According to the invention the distance in the longitudinal direction along the contact surface of the waist-shaped or narrowed part should at least correspond to the required, biological width of the adjoining soft tissue.
