ES2617230T3 - Dental implant packaging - Google Patents

Abstract

Packaging (1) for an implant (2), in particular for a dental implant, with a housing (5), which has a housing space (51) that can be sealed essentially in a liquid-tight manner by means of a lid (4) pivoting and / or sliding for a first section (2 ') of the implant (2) in the form of the actual part inserted later in the bone and / or human tissue, as well as a separate area (19) of the housing space (51) ) by a housing wall (8) for a second section (3) of the implant (2) in the form of a mounting bracket, there being in the housing wall (8) a passage opening (35) that joins the space of housing (51) and the separate area (19) for a transition section (3 ') between the first section (2') and the second section (3) of the implant (2), and presenting the housing wall (8) an extraction notch (9, 36) that allows the implant to be removed with the lid open (4) without separating the sections (2, 3), presenting the packaging and (1) at least one liquid cartridge (12) as well as a respective unlocking element (18) and the liquid cartridge (12) being able to open with the lid closed (4) through the unlocking element (18) of such that the liquid located in the liquid cartridge (12) can exit into the housing space (51).

Moreover, the present invention relates to a packaging, as already described above, with a dental implant disposed therein, a liquid being preferably arranged in the liquid cartridge, with which the surface of the dental implant shortly before its insertion in the organism is moistened and / or rinsed and / or coated. In the case of this liquid it can be for example an aqueous solution of a component that

5 shows at least one of the following effects (mixtures of these components are also possible): promotion of healing, impeding inflammation or infection, promotion of bone growth, promotion of tissue growth or adhesion of tissue in the Implant, impeding bone decalcification, stabilization or improvement of bone density in the implant environment, improvement of bone-implant contact by increasing the increasing amount of bone or soft tissue in the implant. For example, aqueous solutions such as saline solutions, pharmaceutical formulations, and similar systems, as well as mixtures thereof, are possible.

Furthermore preferably said packaging is additionally wrapped in a sterile bag or blister. This bag is preferably designed in a way that allows handling of the packaging when the bag is closed. From

15 this mode can be composed, for example, of a flexible material, at least partially transparent. In this way it is possible that, in a first stage, in non-sterile conditions (for example, by assistance personnel) without opening this bag, the liquid cartridge is inserted under pressure or rotated by releasing the liquid located therein and the Packaging (bag included) with the dental implant located inside it, with the moistening of it, move or shake. Then, the packaging prepared in this way (still in the closed bag) can be taken to a sterile area and only there can the bag be opened. In this way an additional stage of the preparation can be arranged in the non-sterile upstream stage housed upstream and thus the process developments be improved.

Furthermore, the present invention relates to a process for the dampening and subsequent extraction of a

25 dental implant of a package, as explained above. The characterized process is preferably characterized in that, optionally, in a first stage, a liquid cartridge is inserted with the appropriate liquid in the packaging or placed on it, by which the liquid cartridge is pressurized into the packaging, or rotates, releasing the liquid located therein into the housing space, because the packaging with the dental implant located therein moves or is agitated with the wetting thereof, because the packaging is opened by displacement or pivoting of The lid and the dental implant, attached to the mounting bracket, are removed from the packaging. Prior to these stages, said packaging is normally removed from a sterile bag or blister when torn. Optionally, normally after the implant has been inserted, that is, at a stage at least indirectly following, the lid can be partially closed again (or removed through the opening position) and specifically in such a way that the socket scarring is exposed, and

35 is extracted from the packaging.

Other preferred embodiments of the invention are described in the dependent claims.
