Molds for fabrication of custom and potentially modifiable abutments and impression posts for dental implants with various degrees of angulations (including zero degrees) and various dimensions are provided, with a generally oval shape that expands laterally upwards, a symmetrical or asymmetrical cross-section, and regular surfaces, that are fabricated as one piece, or as two coupling pieces snapping onto each other. Custom abutments achieve the development of a custom gingival emergence profile, three dimensionally, which is potentially modifiable according to the needs of each particular clinical case. Custom impression posts that correspond in dimensions and angulations to the abutments allow the accurate recording and transfer of the developed gingival emergence profile from the mouth onto the working cast, where the final implant prosthesis is fabricated. Custom abutments and impression posts have properties and design that allows their preparation and usage as temporary abutments for the cementation and support of temporary prostheses.

A mold for forming a temporary prosthesis has at least two mold members at least partially separable from each other. The at least two mold members cooperatively define a generally enclosed interior cavity for forming the temporary prosthesis. The mold has a securement structure mounted on the at least two mold members for securing the at least two mold members to each other during the forming of the temporary prosthesis. The securement structure is removable from the at least two mold members by hand and without the use of a tool.

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.

Provided is a method for producing a temporary prosthesis that can be easily performed at a dental clinic and that at the same time enables fabrication of a temporary prosthesis that is less susceptible to wear and damage. The present invention is achieved by fabricating an occlusal surface with a dental composite resin that has higher strength compared to a conventional room temperature polymerization resin. The method includes fabricating a prosthesis model, using an impression material to take an impression of a prepared tooth model having the prosthesis model mounted thereon, applying a layer of dental composite resin material to a portion that is to become a crown within the impression that has been removed from the prepared tooth model and polymerizing the composite resin material, putting a powder-liquid mixture of a powder-liquid type room temperature polymerization resin into the impression, refitting the prepared tooth model to the impression, and curing the room temperature polymerization resin.

The invention relates to a temporary artificial limb for fractures. The temporary artificial limb comprises a thigh fixing support, a shank fixing support and a supporting artificial limb body. The thigh fixing support comprises a ring-shaped support and two lower supporting stands, the upper ends of the two lower supporting stands are fixedly connected to the two sides of the ring-shaped support respectively, and the lower ends of the lower supporting stands are hinged to the two sides of the shank fixing support respectively. The shank fixing support is provided with fixing components used for fixing the shank. The supporting artificial limb body supports the front end of the shank fixing support and is connected with the shank fixing support through an angle adjusting device. The temporary artificial limb is used by the sick and wounded with the shank factures or the foot fractures, the sick and wounded can bend the knee joint, the shank fixing support fixes the shank or the foot, the supporting artificial limb body is connected to the knee joint at the front end of the shank fixing support, the body weight is transmitted to the artificial limb through the knee, and therefore loading walking is completely achieved.
