Description

Dental implant healing

The invention relates to a dental implant healing element, in particular to a dental implant healing element which can be firmly combined with an implant during a dental implant treatment procedure.

Dental implant is one of the important methods for dentists to repair missing teeth clinically. Compared with wearing dentures, dental implants have the advantages of good aesthetics and strong occlusal force. Its stability is closer to real teeth, and the patient is comfortable in use. The degree has also increased significantly. In dental implant surgery, the physician will first implant an implant in the alveolar bone to replace the root of the tooth, and place a healing cap on the top of the implant to protect the wound and help the gums shape, waiting for the implant and alveolar bone to heal When finished, remove the healing cap and install a permanent crown.

In order to firmly combine the conventional healing cap with the implant, the conventional healing cap has a first joint, the implant has a second joint, and the structure of the first joint is designed to match the second The coupling part enables the first coupling part and the second coupling part to be correspondingly combined. The structure can be mainly divided into a screw or a cover structure. The screw structure can be directly locked with the implant when used, and the cover structure can be Cover the second joint directly. However, the conventional healing cap may cause reverse rotation of the mutually screwed structures due to brushing teeth, eating and other actions, or the cover may fall off, and even cause the danger of swallowing the conventional healing cap.

In view of this, the conventional healing cap still needs to be improved.

In order to solve the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a dental implant healing member, which can be firmly combined with a dental implant to avoid the problem of the dental implant healing member falling off.
