Patent number: 5823776Abstract: An enossal single tooth implant for a tightly fitting dental prosthesis crises a substantially cylindrical base body insertable in a bore made in a jaw bone and having a blind bore extending inward from one end for receiving a plug portion of a spacing sleeve with the spacing sleeve and the blind bore having an arrangement of coacting elements to prevent a twisting therebetween. The coacting elements include at least one axially extending groove and at least one axially extending projection with each groove being located immediately adjacent the outer edge of the base body and with each projection being adjacent a shoulder of the spacing sleeve which shoulder is engaged on the outer edge of the base body when the sleeve is mounted thereon. In addition to the positive elements, the plug portion has a cylindrical guiding portion followed by a cylindrical centering portion of a smaller diameter.Type: GrantFiled: August 22, 1996Date of Patent: October 20, 1998Assignee: IMZ Fertigungs- und Vertiebsgellschaft fur dentale Technologie mbHInventors: Walter Duerr, Axel Kirsch

Patent number: 5549475Abstract: An enossal single-tooth implant for tightly-fitting dentures, characterized y a substantially cylindrical basic body inserted in a bore made in the jawbone and having a blind bore opening to an outer end, a spacing sleeve engageable on the outer end of the basic body, an implant post insertable in the blind bore of the basic body and connectible in a rotation-prevented manner to the basic body, a joining device for fixing the spacing sleeve to the basic body and a fixing head for the denture joined to the implant post. The implant includes that the fixing head and the joining device are constructed as a one-piece bell-shaped hood having a tapering skirt, which concentrically surrounds the implant post and whose skirt engages over the joint area between an outer circumference of the basic body and the spacing sleeve, with the tapering skirt area being constructed in such a way that it gently extends over a cylindrical circumferential wall of the basic body.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 1994Date of Patent: August 27, 1996Assignees: Eberle Medizintechnische Elements GmbH, IMZ Fertigungs-und Vertriebsgesellschaft fuer dentale Technologie mbHInventors: Walter Duerr, Axel Kirsch

Patent number: 5544552Abstract: A fastening nail for fixing a cover membrane to a bone void which surrounds the bone of the body itself and is filled with an ossiferous material has a nail head with a larger diameter which enables receiving pressure of an impact tool for inserting a nail shaft with a smaller diameter into the bone. The nail shaft has essentially a cylindrical holding part extending to a conical tapering point part adjacent one end and is provided with a transition region between the holding part and point part having an annular shoulder with an enlarged diameter which has a conical surface merging obliquely with the generated surface of the point part in a direction toward the point of the nail and an annular surface extending substantially perpendicular relative to the holding axis of the nail. To insert the nail, the setting tool is elongated and has resilient jaws for gripping the nail and is used in combination with an auxiliary tool which has a foot with downwardly extending points for holding the membrane on the bone.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 1995Date of Patent: August 13, 1996Assignees: Axel Kirsch, Eberle Medizintechnische Elemente GmbHInventors: Axel Kirsch, Walter Duerr
