Patent number: 10251974Abstract: 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.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2014Date of Patent: April 9, 2019Assignee: WishboneInventors: Eric Rompen, France Lambert, Geoffrey Lecloux, Philippe Moniotte

Publication number: 20070072149Abstract: 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.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 28, 2006Publication date: March 29, 2007Inventors: Eric Rompen, Bernard Touati, Eric Dooren, Sanel Duric
