Embodiment Construction

[0024] refer to Figure 1A , 1B and 1C, Patient Specific Temporary Prosthesis ("PSTP") 10a, 10b, and 10c are used to grow a final or permanent patient specific prosthesis in accordance with the present disclosure. In addition, PSTPs 10a, 10b, and 10c act as gingival healing abutments because their outer surfaces are contoured to aid in the healing of the patient's gingival tissue.

[0025] specific reference Figure 1A , the PSTP 10a has a supragingival region 12a and a subgingival region 12b, which are separated by a flange 13 . PSTP 10a is a one-piece prosthesis with supragingival region 12a and subgingival region 12b formed from the same material (eg, acrylic). Alternatively, the supragingival region 12a is permanently attached to the subgingival region 12b, making the PSTP a one-piece prosthesis. In such an alternative, the supragingival region 12a may be made of a first material (eg, acrylic) and the subgingival region 12b may be made of a second material (eg, a metal, ...

Abstract

A method of manufacturing a permanent prosthesis for attachment to a dental implant installed in a mouth of a patient includes scanning a patient specific temporary prosthesis (PSTP) to obtain scan data. The PSTP is attached to the dental implant in the mouth of the patient. Gingival tissue surrounding the PSTP is permitted to heal in the mouth of the patient. In response to aesthetics of the healed gingival tissue surrounding the PSTP in the mouth of the patient not being acceptable, the PSTP is physically modified by (i) removing material from the PSTP, (ii) adding material to the PSTP, or (iii) both. The modified PSTP is scanned and a permanent prosthesis is fabricated as a replica of the modified PSTP using scan data generated from the scan of the modified PSTP.

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of a Chinese patent application with the application number 201380059563.1, the application date is September 9, 2013, and the title is "Temporary dentures for use when growing final dentures". technical field [0002] The present disclosure generally relates to growing final dentures. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to the use of temporary dentures while final dentures grow. Background technique [0003] Restoration of teeth in partially or totally edentulous patients with artificial dentition is usually done in two stages. In the first stage, an incision is made through the gums to expose the underlying bone. An artificial tooth root in the form of a dental implant is placed in the jawbone for osseointegration. Dental implants generally include threaded bores to receive set screws for retaining mating components thereon. During the first stage, the gingival tissue covering the implant is sutured and h...
