Abstract: An intraosteal dental implant having a bone tissue apposition surface extending form a tip of the dental implant up to an interface at a neck portion of the dental implant, and a soft tissue apposition surface extending from the interface to a shoulder of the dental implant, wherein the shoulder is inclined with respect to the axis of the dental implant, and wherein preferably the shoulder is substantially contained in a plane.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an intraosteal dental implant (1) including a bore (14) in the form a blind hole, the bore (14) being shaped and devised such as to rotationally secure an abutment (6) receivable in the dental implant (1), wherein the bore (14) is provided with a substantially cylindrical sleeve (15) extending coaxially to the dental implant (1), wherein the dental implant (1) includes an inner neck surface (18), and wherein an intersection curve (20) between the inner neck surface (18) of the dental implant-(1) and the sleeve (15) does not lay in a plane perpendicular to the axis (7) of the dental implant (1) or wherein the inner neck surface (18) of the dental implant (1) has a substantially conical shape with an imaginary tip (19) offset from the axis (7) of the dental implant (1).

Abstract: Holding element for a dental implant including: an engagement section adapted for engagement with a manipulating tool; a retention section joined to the engagement section and adapted for engagement with a package, in particular an ampule; and a clamping section joined to the retention section and adapted for connecting the holding element to the dental implant, the clamping section including a force transmission element, wherein the clamping section further includes a clamping element provided with an elastic means extending in a non-compressed position thereof at and beyond the outer perimeter defined by the force transmission element.

Abstract: A dental device, in particular a dental implant, comprising an outer body made of ceramic or metal; and an inner body made of metal or ceramic, provided that when the outer body is made of metal the inner body is made of ceramic and when the outer body is made of ceramic the inner body is made of metal, wherein the metal body is produced by metal injection molding and the ceramic body is produced by ceramic injection molding as well as to a method for manufacturing the same.

Abstract: A dental device, in particular a one-piece dental implant, comprising an outer body made of metal; and an inner body made of plastic or composite, wherein the inner body comprises a core perfectly fitting into a cavity of the outer body, and a method for manufacturing a dental device, in particular a one-piece dental implant, comprising the following steps in any order: manufacturing an outer body of metal; and manufacturing an inner body of plastic or composite material; wherein the inner body comprises a core manufactured within a cavity of the outer body.

Abstract: An intraosteal dental implant having a bone tissue apposition surface extending form a tip of the dental implant up to an interface at a neck portion of the dental implant, and a soft tissue apposition surface extending from the interface to a shoulder of the dental implant, wherein the shoulder is inclined with respect to the axis of the dental implant, and wherein preferably the shoulder is substantially contained in a plane.

Abstract: The invention relates to a connection between a known dental implant (1) and a straight or angular abutment (2) which can be established by means of a base screw (3) and a support ring (4). The support ring (4) is fixedly introduced into the inlet of the abutment (2) near the lower edge of same, preferably by welding or by bending over of the lower edge of the abutment (2). Before insertion of the support ring (4) the base screw (3) is introduced head first into the inlet (24) from the side of the root part of the abutment. The base screw is held in the abutment (2) by the support ring (4) on which the base screw (3) rests. The threaded shank (32) of the base screw (3) engages the inner thread (14) provided for in the implant (1) and draws the abutment (2) into the receiving hole (12) of the implant (1). An angled surface of the base screw (3) and a beveled surface of the support ring (4) contact each other so that the welding seam or bent over lower edge of the abutment (2) are relieved of axial stress.

Abstract: For a dental implant (10) which can be inserted into the jaw bone (1) and which is intended principally as a support for a crown or another superstructure, an anchoring base (30) which s can be fitted releasably on the implant (10) was created for the purpose of preliminary orthodontic treatment. The vertical outer sides of the anchoring base (30) are designed as fastening surfaces (31). A bracket (50) can be fixed on a selected fastening surface (31) by means of a bonding layer (60). Orthodontic apparatus components (70, 71) are fastened on this bracket (50). The anchoring base (30) is screwed onto the implant (10) using an occlusal screw (80) and in the process can be locked in a finely adjustable position of rotation. The eccentrically arranged bore (37) promotes adaptation to the spatial conditions and to the orthodontic task. The anchoring base (30) is suitable for a wide range of types of implants (10) and brackets (50).

Abstract: The device for fixing a dental prosthesis has a base which can be inserted into a jaw bone, an abutment and a shell. The base has a hole with a mouth at its end face, with an internal thread and with an extension and has a conical annular surface enclosing the mouth of the hole. The abutment has a thread part which passes through the shell in the assembled device and is screwed into the internal thread of the base, and an outer part located outside the base and serving for holding a dental prosthesis. In the assembled device, the shell fits into the extension of the hole and rests with a conical outer surface firmly against a conical inner surface of the base. Furthermore, the outer part of the abutment rests with a conical stop surface firmly against the annular surface of the base. In the assembled device, the abutment is connected to the base in a stable manner and covers its end face without leaving gaps.

Abstract: A means for fastening a capping on bone tissue or the like over an area of original, locally depressed, chipped or fractured tissue to promote the growth of additional tissue is disclosed, comprising generally, a pin which has, at one end, a bead for attachment of a foil and, at the other end, an external thread for threading into the original tissue or bone. Between the bead and the thread is a smooth-walled segment whose diameter is preferably larger than the diameter of the external thread. The method, unlike previous prior art methods, facilitates growing of the bone between two teeth or between teeth and a denture. The method permits, for example, restoring a jawbone to a larger extent than over areas where there were only slight depressions.
