Description

Technology Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an identification gauge for the maintenance of dental implants, and more specifically, to a gauge kit for selecting fixtures and abutments of dental implants capable of identifying manufacturer and detailed model information, even when an implant has already been placed in a patient's oral cavity but the implant procedure information has been lost or the hospital where the procedure was performed has closed down. Background Technology

[0002] Generally, a dental implant is a treatment that restores missing teeth with artificial teeth by utilizing the osseofusion phenomenon, where implant materials that are completely harmless to the human body bond well with the jawbone.

[0003] Implant treatment has established itself in dental clinical practice and the healthcare industry as a leading prosthetic solution for effectively restoring the masticatory, aesthetic, and speech functions of natural teeth. However, alongside the global popularization of implant prosthetics, cases of mechanical and structural failure during the post-treatment care phase are rapidly increasing.

[0004] In particular, the phenomenon of "Orphan Implants" has emerged as a global health and social issue, where the entity responsible for post-treatment maintenance is lost due to the disappearance of the dental clinic where the patient received the initial implant treatment as a result of business deterioration or closure, frequent changes in medical staff, or the patient themselves losing the warranty or authenticity certificate of the implant product.

[0005] When a patient who has received treatment overseas or whose implantation information has been lost visits another dental clinic, medical staff face significant difficulties in identifying the brand and specifications of the implant fixture.

[0006] In clinical practice, the general method involves performing intraoral X-rays and estimating the shape visually; however, this relies entirely on the clinician's subjective experience and memory, resulting in very low accuracy.

[0007] This is because there are hundreds of implant manufacturers currently on the global market, and geometric dimensional differences, such as the diameter or angle of the internal connection of the fixture, exist within an extremely fine physical micro-tolerance range of 0.05 mm. As a result, it is virtually impossible to identify the fixture specifications of a third-party system that one does not primarily use.

[0008] The lack of information regarding implant products leads to direct mis-fastening accidents during clinical prosthetic treatment, such as the use of abutments or screws of incompatible specifications. The coupling fit between the implant fixture and the abutment is a key variable determining long-term mechanical stability. If mechanical machining errors or rotational / vertical misfit between the two components persist, the occlusal load of approximately 150N applied during mastication becomes concentrated in specific areas. Under conditions of chronic fatigue loading exceeding one million cycles, this results in a rapid loss of the Reverse Torque Value (RTV), causing the fixture screw to loosen spontaneously, screw fracture, or the collapse of the internal threads of the fixture. A more serious problem is the penetration of bacteria through micro-gaps, which leads to oral bacterial infection and peri-implantitis, accelerating alveolar bone resorption. In severe cases, this necessitates the complete surgical removal of the implanted fixture itself followed by re-implantation.

[0009] As a result, clinicians attempt to identify equipment by searching for information on non-covered medical prices and hospital evaluations through the Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service (HIRA)’s "Find Good Hospitals in Our Region" service, Modoodoc, and Cashdoc, as well as relying on image analysis mobile applications like Search Implant or web databases such as "What Implant is That?"; however, there is still an absolute lack of standardized mechanical traceability tools capable of directly verifying the physical specifications of intraoral implants down to the micrometer level, necessitating urgent improvements.

[0010] Here, if we examine the conventional prior art (patent literature) for implant identification,

[0011] (Patent Document 001) A 'dental implant kit' disclosed in Korean Registered Patent Publication No. 10-2015-0050732 (Application Date: April 10, 2015) has been disclosed. This is a technology that utilizes scan data from the patient's oral cavity and 3D CAD / CAM technology to produce customized abutments optimized for the individual patient's gum shape, and can reduce processing errors and improve the fit of the prosthesis through digital impression taking. However, (Patent Document 001) is specialized for producing new prostheses, so it has the drawback that it cannot be applied to orphaned implants for which the information of already implanted implants is unknown. In other words, it contains economic and clinical limitations in that there is no physical measurement means to trace back the manufacturer or specifications, and operation is only possible if expensive digital scanning equipment is provided.

[0012] (Patent Document 002) The 'system for displaying procedure guidance data for dental implants' disclosed in Korean Registered Patent Publication No. 10-2016-0159606 (filed on November 28, 2016) has been disclosed. This presents a Scanbody structure formed with a unique geometric shape or marker so that an oral scanner can accurately recognize the position and direction of implant placement, and serves as a data matching aid for aligning the position of a virtual model with the actual implant during the digital prosthetic restoration process. However, (Patent Document 002) has a problem in that it cannot find the specifications of an unknown implant because the connection specifications of the corresponding implant must already be known in order to mount the Scanbody.

[0013] (Patent Document 003) The ‘Dental Composite Drilling Kit Device and Method of Using the Same’ disclosed in Korean Published Patent Application No. 10-2024-0036579 (Application Date: March 15, 2024) is known. This device creates a 3D surgical guide by combining CT and oral scanner data, and can precisely form an implant insertion hole using an initial, intermediate, and final drill set optimized for it. Additionally, the insertion position and depth can be controlled through a visual guide and a stopper during step-by-step drilling. However, (Patent Document 003) is limited to surgical tools (surgical instruments) for implanting new implants, and thus has a problem in that it cannot find the model by inversely measuring the internal connection or screw thread specifications of an orphaned implant that has already been implanted and osseofused.

[0014] Patent No. 004, US20230025033A1, discloses a system for identifying manufacturer information, serial numbers, and patient information by recording one-dimensional, two-dimensional (QR), or three-dimensional codes on the inner wall of a screw chamber inside a fixture through laser etching or chemical etching. Additionally, Patent No. 005, US20090155744A1, and Patent No. 006, US20210235670A1, disclose device structures that embed a passive micro RFID tag inside the screw fastening space of a fixture and retrieve non-invasive, contactless identification data through a dedicated reader. However, there is a problem in that such embedded wireless / optical identification technology cannot be applied to the numerous legacy orphan implants around the world that have already been implanted and do not have chips embedded during the manufacturing process. Prior art literature

[0015] KR1020150050732B1, Title of Invention 'Dental Implant Kit' KR1020160159606B1, Title of Invention 'Display System for Procedure Guide Materials for Dental Implants' KR1020240036579A, Title of Invention 'Dental Composite Drilling Kit Device and Method for Guiding Use Thereof' US20230025033A1, Title of Invention 'DENTAL IMPLANT IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM' US20090155744A1, Title of Invention 'DENTAL IMPLANT IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM' US20210235670A1, Title of Invention 'SINGLE OR DUAL TECHNOLOGY ANIMAL TAGS AND SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USING THE SAME' The problem to be solved

[0016] The present invention aims to provide a gauge kit for selecting dental implant fixtures and abutments that can rapidly and precisely identify the corresponding implants (fixtures, abutments) by structurally tracing back their specifications in a state where surgical information regarding the dental implant placed in a patient's oral cavity has been lost (also known as an "implant orphan"). Moving away from conventional fragmentary depth measurements or visual estimation methods, diagnostic efficiency can be maximized by actually measuring the specifications of the upper connection and screw fastening part of the implant fixture solely through the insertion of the identification gauge.

[0017] The present invention aims to fundamentally prevent clinical complications such as screw loosening, fracture, and fixture damage caused by improper component fastening, and to maximize the reliability of post-operative care for orphaned implant patients by receiving real-time precision tolerances and compatible abutment lists by manufacturer through identification marks (such as QR codes) linked to gauges and a cloud data server. means of solving the problem

[0018] The present invention, for achieving the above-mentioned objective, is a gauge kit for identifying the fitting specifications of a dental implant fixture and an abutment, comprising: a gauge kit housing partitioned and arranged into a submerged-internal type gauge group, a non-submerged-internal type gauge group, and an external type gauge group, corresponding to the shape of the upper abutment connection portion of a fixture implanted in the gum; a plurality of first measuring gauges arranged within the submerged-internal type gauge group and formed in standard units with progressively changing dimensions to identify a submerged-internal type fixture; and a plurality of second measuring gauges arranged within the non-submerged-internal type gauge group and formed in standard units with progressively changing dimensions to identify a non-submerged-internal type fixture. We propose a gauge kit for identifying dental implants and determining compatible abutments, characterized in that it includes a third measuring gauge for identifying external type fixtures, which is arranged in multiple units within the group of external type gauges and formed in standard units with progressively changing dimensions, wherein each of the first, second, and third measuring gauges comprises: a first measuring unit that measures an internal socket portion or an external shoulder portion corresponding to an abutment fastening portion exposed at the top of each fixture; a second measuring unit that is integrally formed on an axial central axis from the first measuring unit and measures an internal hex portion or an external hex portion corresponding to the abutment fastening portion; and a third measuring unit that is integrally extended along an axial center from the second measuring unit and inserts into an inner screw groove of each abutment fastening portion to measure a screw.

[0019] According to the present invention, the first and second measuring gauges are characterized in that the first measuring part has a straight or tapered cross-sectional structure corresponding to the shape of the upper surface internal socket part of the submerged-internal type fixture or the non-submerged-internal type fixture; and the second measuring part is formed extending along the axial center from the tip of the first measuring part and is formed with a polygonal cross-sectional structure corresponding to the shape of the polygonal internal hex part inside the internal socket part.

[0020] According to the present invention, the second measuring gauge includes a fourth measuring part formed protruding with a step on the upper circumference of the first measuring part, and the fourth measuring part is characterized by having an undercut portion cut inwardly upward in a wedge shape on the bottom surface, which is formed with a cross-sectional structure corresponding to the collar shape of the upper surface of the non-submerged-internal type fixture.

[0021] According to the present invention, the third measuring gauge is characterized in that the shoulder groove formed on the bottom surface of the first measuring part has a cross-sectional structure corresponding to the shape of the external shoulder part of the external type fixture; the second measuring part formed at the center of the shoulder groove has a polygonal cross-sectional structure corresponding to the shape of the external hex part; and the third measuring part is formed protrudingly at the center of the inner surface of the second measuring part and exposed downward.

[0022] According to the present invention, the first to third measuring parts are formed in a Go / No-Go Gauge method for determining the allowable tolerance range of the internal socket diameter of the fixture, wherein after attaching the second measuring part within the internal hex portion, it is determined as a Go (fit) when the horizontal rotational clearance angle of the gauge is within 10˚ and the specifications of the gauge and the implant match, and is determined as a No-Go when the horizontal rotational clearance angle of the gauge is 10˚ or more and the specifications of the gauge and the implant do not match.

[0023] According to the present invention, the first, second, and third measuring gauges are characterized by further comprising: a depth scale line axially marked on the third measuring part; and an elastic ring indicator that is slidably positioned on the outer side of the third measuring part through contact friction to vertically measure the gingival shirt height corresponding to the gum shirt thickness of the fixture and to store and maintain the measured depth.

[0024] According to the present invention, the second measuring part is characterized by being formed in a polygonal column shape including any one of a hexagon, an octagon, a cross (+), or a gear shape, corresponding to the internal hexagonal part shape of the fixture.

[0025] According to the present invention, the identification mark is formed by selectively placing at least one of a barcode, a QR code, and an NFC tag on the outer surface of the gauge kit housing or the first, second, and third actual measuring gauges, and the identification mark transmits a unique identification address linked to each gauge number to a smart terminal, thereby guiding the smart terminal to access a compatible part information database of a cloud data server. Effects of the invention

[0026] The present invention has the effect of preventing the mixing of gauges by independently dividing the actual gauges into types (submerged, non-submerged, external) according to the implant connection method, and by arranging the actual gauges stepwise by diameter and specifications within each type, allowing the operator to quickly and accurately determine whether the gauges are aligned. As a result, in urgent clinical situations, the identification time can be drastically reduced by allowing immediate access to the corresponding type after X-ray reading, and it has the effect of increasing the efficiency of the procedure and preventing the risk of misuse even in an environment where numerous implant brands and specifications are mixed.

[0027] The present invention prevents misdiagnosis through seating feedback using a physical limit gauge (Go / No-Go) method, even when specification differences between manufacturers exist within a certain level of extremely fine micro-tolerance (approx. 0.05~0.1mm), and mechanical processing error (approx. 10 m It has the effect of preventing non-conforming fastening accidents that may occur due to (m or more) in advance.

[0028] The present invention relates to the rotational clearance angle between the implant fixture and the abutment ( i By precisely controlling the fixture screw, it is possible to prevent loosening or fracture of the fixture screw and collapse of the internal threads of the fixture even in a harsh oral environment (repetitive fatigue load) where occlusal load (approximately 150N) is applied, thereby extending the lifespan of the prosthesis.

[0029] The present invention, through the integration of a cloud database platform and identification marks (such as QR codes), enables the real-time matching of information on optimal third-party compatible parts with verified mechanical stability and recommended tightening torque values, thereby ensuring uninterrupted maintenance services and guaranteeing the continuity of after-sales management.

[0030] The present invention provides the effect of minimizing patient pain and fear, improving treatment satisfaction, and maximizing convenience by allowing specifications to be determined solely through the soft insertion of a gauge into the socket, without the need to incise the gums or apply excessive mechanical friction to verify an implant placed in the gums.

[0031] Furthermore, the present invention can significantly contribute to reducing medical disputes and promoting public oral health by resolving the gap in post-implant care, which has emerged as a global health issue. Brief explanation of the drawing

However, the present invention may be embodied in various different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein.

[0041] FIG. 1 is a plan view showing the overall layout of a gauge kit housing (110) for selecting a fixture and abutment of a dental implant according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a drawing showing a first measuring gauge (120a) for identifying a submerged-internal type fixture (F1) according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 3 is a drawing showing a second measuring gauge (120b) for identifying a non-submerged-internal type fixture (F2) according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 4 is a drawing showing a third measuring gauge (120c) for identifying an external type fixture (F3) according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0042] According to the drawings above, the present invention relates to a gauge kit for identifying the fitting specifications of a dental implant fixture and an abutment, comprising: a gauge kit housing (110) partitioned and arranged into a submerged-internal type gauge group (111), a non-submerged-internal type gauge group (112), and an external type gauge group (113) corresponding to the shape of the upper abutment connecting portion (B1, B2, B3) of a fixture (F1, F2, F3) implanted in the gum; and a plurality of first measuring gauges (120a) arranged within the submerged-internal type gauge group (111) and formed in standard units with progressively changing dimensions to identify a submerged-internal type fixture (F1). A plurality of second measuring gauges (120b) are arranged within the above non-submerged-internal type gauge group (112) and formed in a standard unit with gradually changing dimensions to identify a non-submerged-internal type fixture (F2); a plurality of third measuring gauges (120c) are arranged within the above external type gauge group (113) and formed in a standard unit with gradually changing dimensions to identify an external type fixture (F3); and each of the first, second, and third measuring gauges (120a, 120b, 120c) includes a first measuring part (121) that measures an internal socket part (A1) or an external shoulder part (A5) corresponding to an abutment fastening part (B1, B2, B3) exposed at the top of each fixture (F1, F2, F3). A second measuring part (122, 122a) integrally formed on the axial central axis from the first measuring part (121) and measuring an internal hex part (A2) or an external hex part (A6) corresponding to the abutment fastening part (B1, B2, B3);It is characterized by being composed of a third measuring part (123) that is integrally extended along the axial center from the second measuring part (122, 122a) and inserted into the inner screw groove (A3) of each of the abutment fastening parts (B1, B2, B3) to measure the screw.;

[0043] The gauge kit (100) for selecting a fixture and abutment of a dental implant according to the present invention having the above-described features is intended to identify the fitting specifications of a dental implant fixture and abutment and comprises a gauge kit housing (110) and first, second, and third measuring gauges (120a, 120b, 120c).

[0044] As illustrated in FIG. 1, partitions are divided on the upper surface of the gauge kit housing (110) according to the implant shape type, so that actual gauges can be arranged and stored in the order of specifications.

[0045] The gauge kit housing (110) accommodates first, second, and third actual gauges (120a, 120b, 120c), and the internal storage space may be functionally partitioned and arranged so that the practitioner can intuitively select the optimal actual gauge according to the shape of the upper abutment connection part (B1, B2, B3) of the fixture (F1, F2, F3) implanted in the gum.

[0046] The gauge kit housing (110) has an internal storage space on the upper surface that corresponds to three representative geometric fastening structures of the implant, and is partitioned so that a submerged-internal type gauge group (111), a non-submerged-internal type gauge group (112), and an external type gauge group (113) each form independent zones and can store actual gauges (120) by type.

[0047] Each type of gauge group may be composed of multiple first to third actual gauges (120a, 120b, 120c) subdivided within the corresponding connection structure according to diameter, internal hexa size, and thread specifications. The first to third actual gauges (120a, 120b, 120c) may be arranged in rows at regular intervals and vertically inserted into the gauge mounting holes (114) so ​​that the operator can insert them step-by-step starting from the smallest size and determine whether they are aligned.

[0048] The submerged-internal type gauge group (111) may be provided with a set of multiple first measuring gauges (120a) for tracing back and measuring the structural features (shape) of a bone-level implant fixture that is deeply implanted below the horizontal line of the alveolar bone, which is the gum bone. Since the submerged type implant has an internal connection method having an inclined tapered structure in the inner internal socket part (A1) of the submerged type abutment connection part (B1) of the submerged type fixture (F1) and a polygonal anti-rotation socket at the bottom thereof, each measuring gauge (120a, 120b, 120c) of the submerged-internal type gauge group (111) may be configured in a form in which an upper conical inclined surface and a lower polygonal column structure are integrally combined.

[0049] For example, the submerged-internal type gauge group (111) can be arranged in multiple standard units with slightly different dimensions and a connecting end having a taper angle of approximately 11˚, which is the internal entry angle unique to each manufacturer, in order to identify the most widely used representative submerged specifications domestically and internationally. When the practitioner determines that the fixture implanted in the patient's oral cavity is of the submerged type, they can check the physical interlocking state by sequentially inserting the actual gauges included in the submerged-internal type gauge group (111) starting from the smallest specification. At this time, by detecting a state in which the inclined surface of the fixture socket part and the internal polygonal socket and the connecting end of the actual gauge are in close contact with each other, with almost no gap occurring, the system lineup and fixture diameter of the corresponding manufacturer can be accurately identified.

[0050] The non-submerged-internal type gauge group (112) may be provided with a set of multiple second measuring gauges (120b) for measuring the shape of a tissue-level implant system that is implanted so that the upper collar area of ​​the fixture penetrates the gingiva, which is the soft tissue of the gums, and is directly exposed into the oral cavity. Since the non-submerged type implant has a shoulder structure that expands smoothly in a trumpet shape at the upper non-submerged type abutment connection part (B2) of the non-submerged type fixture (F2) and has an octagonal (Octa), hexagonal (Hex), or serrated connecting socket provided inside, each measuring gauge of the non-submerged-internal type gauge group (112) corresponding thereto may also form a conical connecting part structure that precisely adheres to the straight or trumpet-shaped inner wall of the collar and a guide structure with an octagonal cross-section.

[0051] Specifically, the non-submerged-internal type gauge group (112) can be precisely partitioned into multiple actual gauges that progressively reflect minute tolerance deviations in the diameter specifications of the gauge collar (e.g., 4.8 mm, 6.5 mm, etc.) and the size of the internal polygonal socket, and arranged within the kit to identify worldwide tissue-level implants or specifications of similar compatible products domestically and internationally. Accordingly, the practitioner uses the non-submerged-internal type gauge group (112) to attach the gauge to the outer upper margin of the fixture and the internal octagonal anti-rotation structure, and the horizontal rotational clearance angle ( i By applying the standard, it becomes easy to intuitively identify whether the fixture is a manufacturer's standard or a specific compatible copy product.

[0052] Next, the external type gauge group (113) may be provided with a set of multiple third measuring gauges (120c) for measuring the specifications of the screw groove portion of the non-submerged external type, in a Branemark style in which a polygonal protruding structure for preventing rotation and abutment connection is exposed to the outside of the upper surface of the implant fixture. Since the external type implant is equipped with an external hex structure that protrudes vertically from the upper part of the external type abutment connection portion (B3) platform of the external type fixture (F3), the measuring gauge (120) can measure the specifications (depth, diameter) of the screw groove portion corresponding to the screw groove portion of the socket portion when the external hex is separated. When the operator inserts the selected measuring gauge into the screw groove of the fixture platform, the screw guide pin (third measuring part) at the tip of the measuring gauge enters the screw groove vertically and holds the center axis, thereby enabling detection of the optimal specification and identification of abutment compatibility information.

[0053] The first to third measuring gauges (120a, 120b, 120c) are provided in at least one or a plurality of units within each gauge group and are arranged in standard units with progressively changing dimensions so as to be able to precisely measure the specifications of the fixture.

[0054] The partitioned arrangement of these type-specific actual gauges allows the operator to immediately access the connection type initially classified through X-ray reading in urgent clinical situations where numerous implant brands and specifications are mixed, thereby significantly reducing identification time and preventing mixing of gauges.

[0055] In addition, the gauge kit housing (110) has a list of major manufacturers or standard names corresponding to the gauge group visually displayed on one side of each partition area, and each gauge group has a gauge mounting hole (114) in which the first to third actual measurement gauges (120a, 120b, 120c) can be inserted by type.

[0056] Additionally, the bottom or side of the gauge kit housing (110) is equipped with an identification mark (115) that can communicate with a management server via a mobile terminal to retrieve the latest compatible information in real time, thereby providing the function of a data hub that connects a digital database to a network.

[0057] The first to third measuring gauges (120a, 120b, 120c) may be configured by being arranged in multiple standard units that gradually change in size with a constant dimensional deviation within each gauge group in order to precisely measure the geometric structures, such as the socket portion (A1), hex portion (A1, A6), and screw groove portion (A3), of each of the submerged-internal type fixture (F1), non-submerged-internal type fixture (F2), and external fixture (F3), which differ according to the manufacturer and standard of the implant.

[0058] The first to third measuring gauges (120a, 120b, 120c) are configured to be convenient for sequential use by assigning numbers (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ... n) corresponding to progressive sizes for each type of gauge group, and can be provided in 3 to 5 gauge groups, with 10 to 20 types for each type.

[0059] Unexplained symbol '116' is a tool storage compartment for storing screwdrivers and remover tools.

[0060] As illustrated in FIGS. 2 to 4, the first to third measuring gauges (120a, 120b, 120c) may be configured to include lower first to third measuring parts (121, 122, 123), a body part (130), and an upper handle part (131).

[0061] The first to third measuring gauges (120a, 120b, 120c) can filter primary fastening specifications by having the first measuring part (121), located at the bottom of the body part (130), form a cross-sectional structure corresponding to the shape of the internal socket part (A1), which is the uppermost platform area of ​​the implant fixture (F1, F2, F3).

[0062] The first measuring gauge (120a) is for identifying a submerged-internal type fixture (F1), and a plurality of them are arranged within a group of submerged-internal type gauges (111), and can be formed in a standard unit with gradually changing dimensions.

[0063] The second measuring gauge (120b) is for identifying a non-submerged-internal type fixture (F2), and a plurality of them are arranged within a group of non-submerged-internal type gauges (112), and can be formed in a standard unit with gradually changing dimensions.

[0064] The third measuring gauge (120c) is for identifying the external type fixture (F3), and multiple gauges are arranged within the external type gauge group (113), and can be formed in a standard unit with gradually changing dimensions.

[0065] Each of the first, second, and third measuring gauges (120a, 120b, 120c) may be configured to include a first measuring section (121), a second measuring section (122, 122a), and a third measuring section (123).

[0066] The first measuring unit (121) can measure the internal socket portion (A1) or the external shoulder portion (A5) corresponding to the abutment fastening portion (B1, B2, B3) exposed at the top of each fixture (F1, F2, F3).

[0067] As illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 3, the first measuring part (121) is formed with a cross-sectional shape such as a straight line or a downwardly tapered taper corresponding to the shape of the internal socket part (A1) of the submerged-internal type fixture (F1) and the non-submerged-internal type fixture (F2), so that the Morse taper contact angle of the internal socket part (A1) can be precisely measured. The contact angle of the first measuring part (121) can be formed within a range of 0 to 40˚ to correspond to the straight or tapered shape of the internal socket part (A1).

[0068] The second measuring part (122, 122a) is integrally formed on the axial central axis from the first measuring part (121) and can measure the internal hex part (A2) or the external hex part (A6) in correspondence with the abutment fastening part (B1, B2, B3).

[0069] The second measuring part (122, 122a) is formed by extending downward along the axial center for a certain distance from the tip of the first measuring part (121), and forms a polygonal cross section such as a hexagonal shape, an octagonal shape, a cross (+), or a gear (toroch), so that it can be precisely engaged with the polygonal hex portion (A1, A6) of the implant fixture.

[0070] The third measuring part (123) is integrally extended along the axial center from the second measuring part (122, 122a) and can measure screws by being inserted into the inner screw groove (A3) of each abutment fastening part (B1, B2, B3).

[0071] The third measuring part (123) is formed to protrude downward in a certain portion along the axial center from the end of the second measuring part (122) and can enter the screw groove (A3) in the innermost part of the fixture to measure the diameter and effective depth of the screw thread.

[0072] Through this, each of the first to third measuring gauges (120a, 120b, 120c) can simultaneously determine the socket structure and internal screw specifications of the implant fixture already implanted with a single gauge.

[0073] According to the present invention, the first and second measuring gauges (120a, 120b) are characterized in that the first measuring part (121) has a straight or tapered cross-sectional structure corresponding to the shape of the upper surface internal socket part (A1) of the submerged-internal type fixture (F1) or the non-submerged-internal type fixture (F2); and the second measuring part (122) is formed extending along the axial center from the tip of the first measuring part (121) and is formed with a polygonal cross-sectional structure corresponding to the shape of the polygonal internal hex part (A2) inside the internal socket part (A1).

[0074] As illustrated in FIG. 2, the first measuring gauge (120a) may have a first measuring part (121) formed with a straight or tapered cross-sectional structure corresponding to the shape of the internal socket part (A1) at the inner center of the upper surface of the submerged-internal type fixture (F1). The second measuring part (122) of the first measuring gauge (120a) is formed by extending downward along the axial center from the tip of the first measuring part (121) and may have a polygonal cross-sectional structure such as a hexagonal hexa, an octagonal octa, a cross (+), or a gear (toroch) shape corresponding to the shape of the polygonal internal hex part (A2) inside the internal socket part (A1).

[0075] As illustrated in FIG. 3, the second measuring gauge (120b) may be formed with a straight or tapered cross-sectional structure corresponding to the shape of the inner internal socket portion (A1) at the center of the upper surface of the non-submerged-internal type fixture (F2). The second measuring portion (122) of the second measuring gauge (120b) may be formed to extend downward along the axial center from the tip of the first measuring portion (121). The second measuring portion (122) may be formed with a polygonal cross-sectional structure such as a hexagonal hexa, an octagonal octa, a cross (+), or a gear (toroch) shape corresponding to the shape of the polygonal internal hex portion (A2) inside the internal socket portion (A1). For example, the second measuring part (122) can be formed in the same hexagonal nut shape as the internal hex part (A2) and connected to each other.

[0076] In this way, each of the first and second measuring gauges (120a, 120b) can be connected by inserting the first measuring part (121) into the upper surface internal socket part (A1) of the submerged-internal type fixture (F1) or non-submerged-internal type fixture (F2), and the second measuring part (122) entering into the polygonal internal hex part (A2).

[0077] According to the present invention, the second measuring gauge (120b) includes a fourth measuring part (124) that is formed protruding with a step on the upper circumference of the first measuring part (121), and the fourth measuring part (124) is characterized by having an undercut part (125) that is cut inwardly upward in a wedge shape on the bottom surface, which is formed in a cross-sectional structure corresponding to the shape of the collar part (A4) on the upper surface of the non-submerged-internal type fixture (F2).

[0078] As illustrated in FIG. 3, the second measuring gauge (120b) can measure the upper collar portion (A4) of the non-submerged-internal type fixture (F2) by forming a fourth measuring portion (124) that protrudes with a step on the upper circumference of the first measuring portion (121). The fourth measuring portion (124) may have an undercut portion (125) formed on its bottom surface in a wedge (∠) shape that is cut inwardly and upwardly at a certain angle. The undercut portion (125) is formed with a cross-sectional structure corresponding to the shape of the collar portion (A4) on the upper surface of the non-submerged-internal type fixture (F2) and can be seated on the collar portion.

[0079] In this way, the second measuring gauge (120b) can be positioned such that the first measuring part (121) is inserted into the upper surface internal socket part (A1) of the non-submerged-internal type fixture (F2), and the fourth measuring part (124) is seated and covered on the collar part (A4).

[0080] According to the present invention, the third measuring gauge (120c) is characterized in that the shoulder groove (126) formed on the bottom surface of the first measuring part (121) has a cross-sectional structure corresponding to the shape of the external shoulder part (A5) of the external type fixture (F3); the second measuring part (122a) formed at the center of the shoulder groove (126) has a polygonal cross-sectional structure corresponding to the shape of the external hex part (A6); and the third measuring part (123) is formed protrudingly at the inner center of the second measuring part (122a) and exposed downward.

[0081] As illustrated in FIG. 4, the third measuring gauge (120c) is formed with a shoulder groove (126) that is stepped and upwardly recessed in a flat circular shape at the center of the bottom surface of the first measuring part (121), and is formed with a cross-sectional structure corresponding to the shape of the external shoulder part (A5) which is exposed on the upper surface of the external type fixture (F3), so that it can be seated on the external shoulder part (A5). The second measuring part (122a) is formed in the shape of a polygonal socket groove that is stepped and upwardly recessed inward at the center of the shoulder groove (126), and can be formed with a polygonal cross-sectional structure corresponding to the shape of the external hex part (A6). The third measuring part (123) is formed protruding from the center of the inner surface of the second measuring part (122a) and can be exposed downward below the first measuring part (121).

[0082] In this way, the third measuring gauge (120c) can be secured by having the inner shoulder groove (126) of the first measuring part (121) seated on the external shoulder part (A5) and the external hex part (A6) enter into the second measuring part (122a). At this time, the third measuring part (123) can be inserted into the screw groove (A3) and slide.

[0083] The first to third actual measuring gauges (120a, 120b, 120c) are inserted sequentially starting from the smallest size within the gauge group classified by X-ray reading by the operator, and the alignment is determined according to the Go / No-go principle, which is an industrial tolerance inspection method.

[0084] At this time, by selecting a specific gauge that is perfectly fastened so that the seating state of the first measuring part (121), the horizontal rotational clearance angle of the second measuring part (122, 122a), and the entry depth of the third measuring part (123) all match the design data, it becomes possible to trace back the abutment specifications compatible with the exact brand of the implant without error, going beyond simple shape estimation. This three-stage actual measuring gauge allows for the physical verification of all geometric variables inside the implant, thereby preventing clinical side effects such as screw loosening or fracture caused by incorrect part fastening.

[0085] The body portion (130) is formed to extend upward in a constricted manner along the axial center of the upper part of the first measuring portion (121) for a certain distance, and a handle portion (131) is integrally formed at the end of the body portion (130) so that it is easy to grip with the hand. The handle portion (131) has irregularities formed on its surface to improve gripping power and prevent slipping, thereby facilitating delicate operation during sliding or horizontal rotation of the gauge.

[0086] FIG. 5 is a usage state diagram showing a comparison of a fitting (Go) or unfit (No-Go) state with the third measuring part (123) of the measuring gauge seated on the hex part (A2) of the implant fixture.

[0087] According to the present invention, the first to third measuring parts (123) are formed in a Go / No-Go Gauge manner for determining the allowable tolerance range of the diameter of the internal socket part (A1) of the fixture (F1, F2, F3), wherein after attaching the second measuring part (122, 122a) within the internal hex part (A2), the horizontal rotational clearance angle of the gauge ( i When ) is within 10˚, it is determined as a fit (Go) where the specifications of the gauge and the implant match, and the horizontal rotational clearance angle of the gauge ( iIt is characterized by determining it as a non-go (No-Go) when the gauge and implant specifications do not match when the angle is 10˚ or more.

[0088] By applying the Go / No-Go Gauge principle, which determines the acceptance of mechanically processed parts during the implant identification process using the first to third actual measurement gauges (120a, 120b, 120c), to the dental implant identification method, errors caused by the subjective judgment of medical staff can be effectively eliminated.

[0089] After the operator visually classifies the implant type (submerged-internal type, non-submerged-internal type, or external type), the operator can select a first, second, and third measuring gauge (120a, 120b, 120c) of a specific specification from the corresponding gauge group and insert it into the fixture. Subsequently, a vertical structure extending from the first measuring part (121) to the second and third measuring parts (122, 122a, 123) is physically coupled with the internal socket part (A1), internal hex part (A2), and screw groove part (A3) of the implant fixture.

[0090] At this time, as illustrated in FIG. 5, the operator checks the fastening precision between the gauge and the fixture by applying a fine rotational torque in clockwise and counterclockwise directions while gripping the handle. At this time, the horizontal rotational play angle of the gauge ( i ) is suitable within 10˚, and preferably most suitable within 5˚, the horizontal rotational clearance angle ( i If ) is maintained within 10˚, it is determined to be in a Go state, where the specifications of the implant and the gauge match.

[0091] On the other hand, although the gauge is inserted, the horizontal rotational play angle that wobbles in the rotational direction ( iIf the ) occurs excessively with an angle of 10˚ or more, even if the external type is similar, it is considered that the manufacturer's unique fine design tolerance does not match the gauge, so it is judged as non-conforming (No-Go), and re-measurement is performed using the next specification in the kit or a gauge from another manufacturer.

[0092] For example, numerous domestic and international Internal Hex type implants may appear to have the same specifications on the outside, but there are minute dimensional differences of 0.01mm to 0.05mm depending on the manufacturer. These differences can be clearly distinguished through the critical angle of 10˚ that occurs when the gauge of the present invention is fastened.

[0093] This significantly reduces the risk of misdiagnosis that could previously occur due to X-ray image distortion or differences in the individual experience of medical staff, and the horizontal rotational clearance angle ( i By selecting a genuine or replacement abutment that is perfectly compatible with the implant system only after passing a precise fit test, mechanical complications such as screw loosening or fracture that may occur after the prosthesis is attached can be prevented in advance.

[0094] The first to third measuring gauges (120a, 120b, 120c) allow the third measuring part (123) to precisely measure the thickness of the gums, i.e., the gingival shirt height, which is a decisive indicator for determining the screw specifications inside the implant fixture as well as selecting the height of the abutment.

[0095] According to the present invention, the first, second, and third measuring gauges (120a, 120b, 120c) are further characterized by comprising: a depth scale line (128) axially marked on the third measuring part (123); and an elastic ring indicator (129) which is slidably positioned on the outer side of the third measuring part (123) through contact friction to vertically measure the gingival shirt height corresponding to the gum shirt thickness of the fixture (F1, F2, F3) and store and maintain the measured depth.

[0096] Specifically, the third measuring part (123) has depth scale lines (128) finely engraved at regular intervals along the axial center on the outer surface, so that the vertical depth into which the gauge enters the screw groove can be visually and immediately determined.

[0097] Additionally, the elastic ring indicator (129) can be elastically fitted to the outside of the third measuring part (123) and positioned to slide while maintaining appropriate frictional force, and can be made of an elastic material including silicone, natural rubber, spring (pin spring), soft resin, etc. that is harmless to the human body.

[0098] The elastic ring indicator (129) can stop in a position where it is automatically pushed upward in response to the insertion depth of the gauge while in contact with the uppermost soft tissue surface of the gum when the operator inserts the gauge into the socket inside the fixture. Even after the operator completes the measurement and withdraws the gauge from the oral cavity, the elastic ring indicator (129) remains fixed in the position moved by frictional resistance, storing and maintaining the measured depth information. Through this, the operator can quantify and verify the patient's accurate gingival shirt height by precisely comparing the depth scale line marked on the gauge with the position of the silicone ring outside the oral cavity.

[0099] Thus, the present invention enables precise measurement of the distance from the implant platform to the gum ridge without the need for a separate probe tool (measuring instrument), and by guiding the selection of an abutment with the most suitable penetration height for the patient's oral environment, it prevents food pressure around the prosthesis and provides clinical utility in ensuring long-term gum health and aesthetic completeness simultaneously.

[0100] According to the present invention, the second measuring part (122) is characterized by being formed in a polygonal column shape including any one of a hexagon, an octagon, a cross (+), or a gear shape corresponding to the shape of the internal hex part (A2) of the fixture (F1, F2, F3).

[0101] The second measuring part (122) is selected and provided in one of various polygonal column shapes, such as a hexagon (Hex), octagon (Octa), cross, or gear (Torochs), depending on the internal fastening method of the implant classified primarily by X-ray reading, and can be combined with the internal hex part (A2) inside the internal type fixture or the external hex part (A6) on the top of the external type fixture.

[0102] In particular, in the case of the internal hex method, which is the most widely used worldwide, the second measuring part (122) is formed in the shape of a regular hexagonal column to induce surface contact with the inner wall of the fixture socket, thereby thereby the aforementioned horizontal rotational clearance angle ( i It becomes possible to stably transmit rotational torque for measuring ).

[0103] These first, second, and third actual measuring gauges (120a, 120b, 120c) enable the diversified polygonal structure of the second measuring part (122) to universally correspond to internal connection standards adopted differently by manufacturers such as Osstem, Dentium, and Straumann. Furthermore, beyond simply checking whether it fits into a hole, it is possible to verify how precisely the corners and faces of the polygon match the internal structure of the fixture within the tolerance.

[0104] In other words, the operator can filter primary brand groups through specific fastening shapes such as hexagons, octagons, crosses (+), and gears, and identify the final implant model through subsequent fine dimensional verification. This geometric correspondence prevents parts with incorrect anti-rotation structures from being forcibly fastened, thereby blocking wear or deformation of the implant's internal structure and ensuring the long-term rotational stability of the prosthesis.

[0105] Meanwhile, the first, second, and third actual measurement gauges (120a, 120b, 120c) are 20 m m to 60 m After surface shot blasting treatment with m-sized alumina particles and heat treatment under a reducing atmosphere heated to over 1000°C, the average surface roughness (Rz) range is 1.0 to 2.0 m By being formed within the m range, the socket portion (A1) and screw groove portion (A3) of the fixture can be measured and diffuse reflection of the visible wavelength light source of the 3D optical scanner in the oral cavity can be induced to form an optically matte anti-reflective surface.

[0106] FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram in which a smart terminal (300) accesses a cloud data server (200) and a compatible parts information database (202) via an identification mark (115) of a gauge kit housing (110) according to an embodiment of the present invention to obtain the corresponding implant fixture information (compatible third-party parts information) in real time. FIG. 7 is a step-by-step operational flowchart from the time of patient diagnosis (implant identification and abutment determination) using a gauge kit (100) according to an embodiment of the present invention to the selection of a compatible part and the final selection of an implant.

[0107] As illustrated in FIGS. 6 and 7, a measurement gauge kit (100) according to an embodiment of the present invention can provide final prosthetic information through organic combination with digital data beyond the physical measurement process.

[0108] According to the present invention, the outer surface of the gauge kit housing (110) or the first, second, and third actual measuring gauges (120a, 120b, 120c) includes an identification mark (115) formed by selectively placing at least one of a barcode, a QR code, and an NFC tag, and the identification mark (115) transmits a unique identification address linked to each gauge number to a smart terminal (300) to guide the smart terminal (300) to access a compatible part information database (202) of a cloud data server (200).

[0109] The identification mark (115) is formed on the outer surface of the gauge kit housing (110) or the first, second, and third actual measuring gauges (120a, 120b, 120c) in the form of a barcode with a combination of black and white bars of different thicknesses, a two-dimensional matrix QR code, or a thin wireless chip-based NFC antenna tag, which can be scanned or recognized by a smart terminal (300). The identification mark (115) includes unique identification address information that is matched one-to-one with the specification number and physical characteristic value of each gauge, and the smart terminal (300) that receives it can immediately attempt to connect to a cloud data server (200) located at a remote location via a wireless network.

[0110] The cloud data server (200) receives the unique identification number and measurement data transmitted by the smart terminal (300) after recognizing the identification mark (115), and can precisely analyze the received information through the compatible parts information database (202).

[0111] The cloud data server (200) can analyze the identification address packet received through the wired / wireless network gateway and extract the optimal implant candidate group corresponding to the gauge by querying the compatible part information database (202) in real time.

[0112] The compatible parts information database (202) built within the cloud data server (200) systematically stores fine tolerance data of implant manufacturers, screw specifications, and detailed specifications of the corresponding abutments. By analyzing the identification address received from the smart terminal (300), the manufacturer name and model name of the implant matching the gauge, and a list of part numbers of dedicated abutments that can be attached to the corresponding model, can be transmitted in real time to the screen of the smart terminal (300).

[0113] In the compatible parts information database (202), geometric shape dimensions such as the outer diameter and inner hex and octa of implant fixtures by major domestic and foreign manufacturers, as well as thread pitch and depth information, and detailed part number lists of dedicated abutments that match the assembly tolerance values ​​allowed when a measuring gauge for each standard is attached, are stored and managed in a table structure in advance.

[0114] In this way, chair time can be drastically reduced by eliminating the cumbersome process of practitioners having to manually compare vast volumes of implant catalogs or contact manufacturers directly. Furthermore, through a cloud-based operation method, even when new implant models are released or the specifications of existing products change, the latest identification accuracy can always be maintained simply by updating the server-side database, without the need to replace the entire physical gauge kit.

[0115] That is, the gauge kit (100) for identifying dental implants and determining compatible abutments according to the present invention can select definitive prosthetic parts within a few minutes, even for orphaned implant patients with no medical records, by combining physical primary verification data through the gauge with precise specification information from a cloud database.

[0116] In the compatible parts information database (202) of the cloud data server (200), not only the diameter and depth of the socket and the pitch of the internal thread for each implant system, but also the manufacturer's unique fine tolerance values ​​generated when combined with the first, second, and third actual gauges (120a, 120b, 120c) of the present invention can be precisely stored in the form of a data table.

[0117] The smart terminal (300) recognizes the identification mark (115) of the gauge and the specific gauge identifier (ID) and the horizontal rotational clearance angle confirmed by the operator ( iWhen the information is transmitted to the server, the cloud data server (200) can execute a backtracking process that compares and matches the data with specification values ​​in the database in real time through an algorithm.

[0118] A cloud-based architecture enables access to the latest information, centrally managed by a central server, anytime and anywhere, without the need to directly store vast amounts of data on terminals at individual dental clinics. By updating and distributing changes—such as the launch of new implant products or the discontinuation and specification modifications of existing products—in real time, the reliability of the system and the current status of the information can be guaranteed.

[0119] In addition, the cloud data server (200) processes the most optimized fastening torque value for the identified fixture, the type of dedicated abutment, and precautions for post-maintenance into a comprehensive report form beyond simple specification matching, and feeds it back to the smart terminal (300), thereby enabling medical staff to perform safe and accurate prosthetic restoration without the risk of misdiagnosis or misfastening due to lack of information.

[0120] This cloud data server (200) can overcome the limitations of the implant measurement gauge kit through a digital information network and, through the accumulation of data, can provide multifaceted possibilities for improving the quality of medical services, such as managing the implant history of a specific patient or providing statistical analysis data.

[0121] The smart terminal (300) includes a portable interface device that recognizes an identification mark (115) and communicates with a cloud data server (200) via it to provide implant identification information to the user. The smart terminal (300) includes a hardware configuration capable of recognizing barcodes, QR codes, or NFC tags by mounting a camera module or a short-range wireless communication module inside, and the horizontal rotational clearance angle (input by the practitioner) iIt functions as an input means for collecting data such as visual identification data and transmitting it to a cloud data server (200). In addition, it can assist in on-site decision-making by processing the manufacturer-specific precision specifications and compatible abutment list received from the cloud data server (200) into visual images, text, and voice forms and outputting immediate feedback to the operator.

[0122] The smart terminal (300) includes a smartphone equipped with a camera and mobile network functions that the practitioner carries daily, or a tablet PC and smart pad type terminal that facilitates simultaneous comparison of X-ray images and identification reports through a wider screen. Additionally, a dedicated handheld scanner specialized for asset management and patient treatment record linkage within the dental clinic, or an industrial personal information terminal such as a PDA, may be used. Furthermore, to ensure the freedom of both hands during the procedure, the smart terminal (300) may be configured such that a wearable terminal in the form of smart glasses with augmented reality technology is introduced to directly project identification information and guidelines into the practitioner's field of vision. These various types of terminals commonly comply with communication standards for data exchange with the cloud data server (200) and function as an organic channel connecting the actual measurement gauge and the digital database of the present invention through a dedicated application.

[0123] The identification mark (115) serves as a medium for data linkage through a smart terminal (300) and can be configured and placed in various ways, either visually or electronically, on the surface of the gauge kit housing (110) or on one side of an individual gauge. Specifically, the identification mark (115) may selectively utilize at least one of the following means to provide a recognition interface optimized for the surgical environment: a barcode with a combination of black and white bars that has high printing efficiency, a QR code in the form of a two-dimensional matrix with a large information storage capacity, or an NFC antenna tag capable of short-range wireless communication including a thin wireless chip and antenna structure.

[0124] Thus, when the identification mark is recognized using the camera module or short-range communication function of the smart terminal (300), the dedicated application embedded in the smart terminal can transmit the unique identification number assigned to the mark to the cloud data server (200) in real time. The cloud data server (200) can perform a process of extracting precision implant fixture specification information matched with the received identification number from an internal database and transmitting it back to the smart terminal (300).

[0125] During this process, the manufacturer's brand name of the implant, the diameter and length of the fixture, and a list of compatible abutments that perfectly correspond to the internal connection structure are displayed on the screen of the smart terminal (300) as feedback information in the form of a combination of visual images and text, allowing the operator to immediately determine the specifications of the final prosthesis on-site without searching a separate catalog.

[0126] This multi-identification mark system and cloud-based feedback output method can maximize the universality of system usage by ensuring a flexible recognition method tailored to the hospital network environment or the specifications of the operator's terminal, and can 혁신적으로 improve the accuracy of implant post-care by eliminating the information gap between physical measurements and digital data.

[0127] As illustrated in FIG. 7, the cloud data server (200) stores internal socket specifications, screw groove diameters, and thread pitch information for thousands of implant manufacturers worldwide in the form of a data table. Accordingly, when a request is received from the smart terminal (300), the processing unit (201) can execute a process to extract a group of optimal fixture candidates that match the gauge ID. The cloud data server (200) can generate a comprehensive identification report that includes a list of part numbers for dedicated abutments compatible with the model, recommended appropriate torque values ​​for fastening, and clinical guides for subsequent prosthetic restoration, in conjunction with the fixture information identified by the user through the actual gauge. The generated report data is then transmitted as real-time feedback to the smart terminal (300) via a wireless communication network and visually displayed on the terminal screen, so the practitioner can obtain accurate part selection information in a short time, even for patients without past medical records. In addition, the cloud data server (200) adopts a centralized update method so that when a new implant product is released or existing specifications are changed, it can perform the role of a data hub that keeps the identification performance of physical gauge kits distributed worldwide up to date by updating only the database on the server side.
