Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of dental implants, in particular to a dental implant. BACKGROUND

[0002] A dental implant is a device that is surgically implanted into the upper or lower jawbone of a patient to replace a missing tooth. The dental implant generally comprises an implant, an abutment and a central screw. The implant is implanted into the jawbone of the patient. The top of the implant is provided with a mounting hole. The bottom of the abutment is inserted into the mounting hole of the implant. The central screw locks the abutment to the mounting hole of the implant, so that the outer sidewall of the abutment tightly fits the inner sidewall of the mounting hole, achieving a seal between the abutment and the implant. However, the sealing performance between the implant and the abutment still needs to be improved. SUMMARY

[0003] The present application aims to provide a dental implant to solve one or more technical problems in the prior art, at least to provide a beneficial alternative or create conditions.

[0004] To solve the above technical problems, the technical scheme adopted by the present application is as follows:

[0005] A dental implant comprises:

[0006] an implant, the top of which is provided with a mounting hole, and the bottom wall of the mounting hole is provided with a boss;

[0007] an abutment, the bottom of which is inserted into the mounting hole, the outer sidewall of the abutment tightly fits the inner sidewall of the mounting hole, the bottom of the abutment is provided with a fitting hole, the boss is inserted into the fitting hole, and the outer sidewall of the boss tightly fits the inner sidewall of the fitting hole.

[0008] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows: the bottom of the abutment is inserted into the mounting hole, and the outer sidewall of the abutment tightly fits the inner sidewall of the mounting hole, so that a sealing interface is formed between the outer sidewall of the abutment and the inner sidewall of the mounting hole; the boss of the bottom wall of the mounting hole is inserted into the fitting hole of the bottom of the abutment, and the outer sidewall of the boss tightly fits the inner sidewall of the fitting hole, so that another sealing interface is formed between the outer sidewall of the boss and the inner sidewall of the fitting hole; thus, two sealing interfaces are formed between the bottom of the abutment and the mounting hole of the implant, further improving the sealing performance between the abutment and the implant.

[0009] As a further improvement of the above technical scheme, the horizontal cross-sectional area of the mounting hole gradually decreases from top to bottom, and the shape of the bottom of the abutment matches the shape of the mounting hole.

[0010] The bottom of the abutment is matched with the shape of the mounting hole, and the horizontal cross-sectional area of the bottom of the abutment gradually decreases from top to bottom. When the bottom of the abutment is inserted into the mounting hole and the abutment is connected with the implant, the outer side wall of the bottom of the abutment can press the inner side wall of the mounting hole downward to improve the sealing performance between the abutment and the implant.

[0011] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the inner side wall of the mounting hole is connected with the outer side wall of the bottom of the abutment in a Morse taper.

[0012] The outer side wall of the bottom of the abutment is connected with the inner side wall of the mounting hole in a Morse taper. The sealing performance between the abutment and the mounting hole connected in a Morse taper is good, and the mechanical stability is strong. The micro-motion of the abutment is reduced, the abutment is prevented from loosening, the bone resorption around the implant is reduced, and the long-term stability of the implant restoration is achieved.

[0013] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the horizontal cross-sectional area of the boss gradually increases from top to bottom, and the shape of the assembly hole is matched with the shape of the boss.

[0014] The shape of the assembly hole is matched with the shape of the boss, and the horizontal cross-sectional area of the assembly hole gradually increases from top to bottom. When the boss is inserted into the assembly hole and the abutment is connected with the implant, the outer side wall of the boss can press the inner side wall of the assembly hole upward to improve the sealing performance between the abutment and the implant.

[0015] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the outer side wall of the boss is connected with the inner side wall of the assembly hole in a Morse taper.

[0016] The outer side wall of the boss is connected with the inner side wall of the assembly hole in a Morse taper. The sealing performance between the boss and the assembly hole connected in a Morse taper is good, and the mechanical stability is strong. The micro-motion of the boss is reduced, the boss is prevented from loosening, and the sealing performance between the boss and the assembly hole is improved.

[0017] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the outer side wall of the boss is provided with a first rotation-stopping plane, and the inner side wall of the assembly hole is provided with a second rotation-stopping plane. The first rotation-stopping plane and the second rotation-stopping plane are attached to limit the freedom of rotation of the abutment around the vertical axis.

[0018] The first rotation-stopping plane of the boss and the second rotation-stopping plane of the assembly hole are attached to limit the freedom of rotation of the abutment around the vertical axis. The abutment is prevented from rotating around the vertical axis to damage the two sealing interfaces formed between the abutment and the implant. The first rotation-stopping plane and the second rotation-stopping plane are both planes, and the sealing performance after the first rotation-stopping plane and the second rotation-stopping plane are attached is high.

[0019] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the top surface of the boss is flush with the top of the implant.

[0020] The top surface of the boss is flush with the top of the implant, and the boss is also inserted into the assembly hole of the abutment during the process of inserting the bottom of the abutment into the mounting hole, so as to avoid the outer edge of the boss scratching the inner side wall of the assembly hole due to misalignment of the boss and the assembly hole.

[0021] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the top surface of the boss abuts against the top wall of the assembly hole.

[0022] The top surface of the boss abuts against the top wall of the assembly hole, so that the boss and the top wall of the assembly hole form a third sealing interface, and a zigzag sealing structure is formed between the bottom of the abutment and the mounting hole of the implant, thereby improving the sealing performance between the abutment and the implant.

[0023] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the outer edge of the boss is provided with a rounded corner.

[0024] When the bottom of the abutment is inserted into the mounting hole of the implant, the outer edge of the boss contacts the inner side wall of the assembly hole during the process of inserting the boss into the assembly hole, and the outer edge of the boss is provided with a rounded corner, so as to avoid the outer edge of the boss scratching the inner side wall of the assembly hole, thereby preventing the scratches on the inner side wall of the assembly hole from affecting the sealing performance between the boss and the assembly hole.

[0025] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the abutment is provided with a center hole extending through the top and bottom, the center hole is in communication with the assembly hole, the top of the boss is provided with a threaded hole, and the dental implant further comprises a central screw, the central screw is arranged in the center hole, and the bottom of the central screw is connected to the threaded hole.

[0026] The central screw is connected to the threaded hole of the boss after passing through the center hole of the abutment, so that the abutment and the implant are connected together, and the pre-tightening force of the central screw causes the bottom of the abutment to abut against the mounting hole of the implant downward, so as to ensure that the two sealing interfaces between the abutment and the implant remain in a closed state.
