AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This system enables precise alignment of the prosthetic tooth with the patient's bite and aesthetics, providing a more optimal dental restoration that addresses the limitations of existing implants by allowing for adjustable alignment without compromising on aesthetics or functionality.

Problems solved by technology

In many individuals, disease and / or injury may result in the loss of one or more natural teeth.
While such dental implants can be effective, they also tend to suffer from a number of problems.
Unfortunately, the optimal axial alignment for the implant seated in the bone may not necessarily be the same as the optimal axial alignment for the prosthetic tooth extending into the mouth.

Embodiment Construction

[0050] The present invention generally comprises a dental implant system and a method for effecting a dental restoration using the same.

[0051] The dental implant system generally comprises an implant fixture 100 adapted to be deployed in a bone B (FIG. 1); a cover screw 200 adapted to be selectively deployed in implant fixture 100 (FIG. 1); an impression coping 300 adapted to be selectively deployed on implant fixture 100 (FIG. 2) and in a dental impression I (FIG. 3); a laboratory analog 400 adapted to be selectively deployed on impression coping 300 (FIG. 3) and in a dental cast C (FIG. 4); a spherical abutment 500 adapted to be selectively deployed on laboratory analog 400 (FIG. 4); and a multiaxis abutment 600 adapted to be adjustably deployed on spherical abutment 500 (FIG. 4). In accordance with the present invention, spherical abutment 500 and multiaxis abutment 600 may be used to generate a permanent abutment 700 which may be received by laboratory analog 400 (FIG. 5) and im...

Abstract

A dental implant system and method for effecting a dental restoration using the same.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001] This invention relates to dental apparatus and procedures in general, and more particularly to dental implant systems and methods for effecting dental restorations using the same.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002] In many individuals, disease and / or injury may result in the loss of one or more natural teeth. As a result, various techniques have been developed to replace such lost natural teeth with prosthetic appliances.[0003] For example, where sufficient natural teeth remain adjacent to the location where a prosthetic tooth is to be positioned, a bridge may be fabricated.[0004] Alternatively, if insufficient natural teeth remain to support and stabilize a bridge, a denture may be fabricated, with the denture seating against the patient's gingiva.[0005] In still other situations, a dental implant may be used. With such a dental implant, a hole is generally first made in the upper or lower jaw bone, as appropriate, and then the distal end of the implant i...
