A method for making a dental implant by obtaining images of the tooth pre-atraumatic tooth extraction and post extraction and using those images to computer generate and mill a titanium replacement implant employing CAD/CAM equipment. The implant includes a scalloped neck interface similar to the replaced tooth's scalloped cementoenamel junction, a polished neck area between a root portion and a crown portion, and the numeral for the tooth number imprinted on the implant's facial surface. Chevron retention fins are provided on the root portion for engaging the bone of the tooth socket or osteotomy when the implant is tapped into position. Retention grooves are provided on the crown portion to which a provisional crown is cemented slightly out of occlusion at the time the implant is placed. The provisional crown will be replaced with a permanent crown after osteointegration of the implant has occurred.

A hybrid method for dental implant treatment planning and a corresponding approach to make a surgical guide. After digital treatment planning is performed with CT scan data, a master model is created, which embodies the patient anatomy and entire treatment plan. Jaw bone, tooth surfaces, soft tissues and nerves are all contained by the master model. The plan details including implant sizes and positions, surgical guide drill options, as well as the choice of a surgical kit, are all conveyed by the master model. Meanwhile, models of specially designed “implant inserts (or replicas)” are also generated, which have one end that fits into the implant holes on the master model and another end to make the surgical guide. The master model and inserts are manufactured with rapid prototyping technology. A surgical guide is later on made from them with conventional lab processes. A main characteristic of this approach is that the master model and the inserts are the physical embodiment of a virtual treatment plan. With them, the surgeons can continue the treatment planning for operations like tooth extractions and bone modifications before making the surgical guides. Therefore the treatment planning workflow is a combination of digital treatment planning and a physical model based planning, in other words, a hybrid approach. A differentiator in this invention is the generation of a closed solid model of the soft tissue, as part of the master model, from the scan data. This approach can be applied to create both bone-borne and tissue-borne surgical guides with low cost process, which is a big advantage over other approaches.

In one form, the dressing is a flowable, moldable, biocompatible, bioresorbable dressing prepared by reacting (i) a collagen derivative, such as gelatin or atelocollagen, and (ii) a non-cytotoxic crosslinking agent.

The invention discloses a compound growth factor collagen sustained-release carrier material for promoting repair of various traumas in oral and maxillofacial regions and a method for preparing the same. In order to overcome the defect of poor curative effect existing in the conventional medicaments for treating the traumas of various tissues such as an oral cavity and a face, a bioactive collagen sustained-release material is prepared by combining collagen modified by liposome, chitosan, glycosaminoglycan and the like with one or more of a basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), a platelet derived growth factor (PDGF-BB), a vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and a keratinocyte growth factor (KGF). The bioactive collagen sustained-release material is characterized in that: each gram of bioactive collagen sustained-release material contains not less than 10ng of growth factors, and the bioactive collagen sustained-release material has the obvious effect of treating various facial tissue traumas such as tooth extraction wound, oral ulcer, facial nerve injury, mandibular defect and the like. The collagen sustained-release carrier material can continuously release an effective amount of the growth factors to the wound for a long time, fully exert the inducing effect of the growth factors and obviously shorten the time for wound healing so as to fulfill the aim of treatment.

A tooth extraction device is provided that uses a clamp assembly to clamp a tooth to be extracted, and a handle for positioning the clamp assembly within a patient's mouth. A cable and an actuator for moving the cable are provided for moving the clamp assembly. The clamp assembly includes a pair of clamp links pivotally connected to a carrier block.

A bone repair material is described that is of putty-like consistency, particularly useful for repairing dental bony defects such as those caused by bone loss resulting from moderate or severe periodontitis, augmenting of bony defects of the alveolar ridge, filling tooth extraction sites, or sinus elevation grafting. The repair material includes a porous, resorbable particulate that is bone-derived or derived from bone-like hydroxyapatite or synthetic hydroxyapatite; and, a resorbable carrier, such as high molecular weight polysaccharides, such as hyaluronic acid. A high concentration of particulate in the putty enhances bone repair and requires a high concentration of carrier to retain the putty at the defect site. For a particulate density of about 1.2 g/cc such as PEPGEN P-15® Bone Graft, a preferred formulation comprises about 55% percent by weight of the putty suspended in a hyaluronic acid gel of about 1.4×10⁶ daltons molecular weight and a final concentration of about 56 mg/cc which material adheres to a bony periodontal defect and does not excessively expand or migrate from the defect when held in place by a conventional flap closure.

The invention relates in general to the fabrication of provisional or temporary crowns utilized to temporarily restore dental implants.

A tooth extraction assisting device includes an ultrasonic machine, an ultrasonic hand piece, and 5 different insert tips that are hook-on to the hand piece. The ultrasonic machine outputs a signal with high frequency oscillation. This high frequency oscillation signal received by the ultrasonic hand piece generates a high frequency vibration of the insert tip.
