Abstract: The present invention provides an apparatus for highly accurate and real-time photoelectric glass substrate identification. The apparatus includes: a laser device for emitting a laser beam; a glass substrate that has a first surface and a second surface and is configured to receive the laser beam to generate a first laser beam point and a second laser beam point; and, a charged coupled device (CCD) camera inspecting equipment. The first laser beam point has a first point area, and the second laser beam point has a second point area. Once the first point area is moved for a glass distance number and is aligned with the second point area, the CCD camera inspecting equipment can obtain a thickness value of the glass substrate with a resolution value and the glass distance number. In addition, the present invention also provides a method for highly accurate and real-time photoelectric glass substrate identification.

Abstract: A sequential dental surgical guide system and method for immediate load is described. The system includes 1) a tooth and tissue borne surgical guide with fixation pins and bone reduction osteotomy sites 2) an implant osteotomy guide and 3) a prosthesis guide. The system does not rely on any anatomical reference points such as tissue or bone after placement of the first tooth and tissue borne reference guide. The sequential guide(s), both surgical implant placement and prosthesis guide rely on the original fixation positions determined by the first guide. Digital treatment planning and design are used to accurately place each sequential guide back to the original fixation pin positions. The fixation pin reference can be pinned and repined in the same sites per sequential guide or fixed in the jaw through the protocol by keeping them in place and switching out the guides.

Abstract: A dental device is described. The dental device includes a surgical template having one or more sites for drilling osteotomies in the maxillary or mandibular jaw and a false teeth set. The surgical template and false teeth set are configured to fit together to form a denture prosthesis that can be implanted in a patient. Also described are a method for creating a surgical dental template, a method for implanting a dental prosthesis, and a method for reducing jaw bone in a patient.
