Definitions
- This invention relates to a dental implant system which can be inserted into the jaw bone of a patient and can be utilized to improve retention of a dental restoration built onto the jaw bone.
- dental implant systems are utilized to fix a synthetic tooth structure to the jaw bone of a patient in order to replace a missing tooth.
- the implant system includes an implant which is inserted into a hole in the patient's jaw bone drilled by a dentist.
- the implant includes a hole designed to receive a dental post which, in turn, serves to retain a core upon which a tooth crown is built.
- these posts are screwed into place with the implant heaving a helical path and the post having a mating helical thread.
- the post bottom can have threads or can have a hollow core for a screw to unite the post and implant.
- a screw system alone does not provide an antirotation characteristic to the implant system and can unscrew and loosen.
- a problem with this system is that the screws break during implacement and during function. Also, the screws are small and may be dropped in the mouth accidently or they are difficult to place into the back portion of the mouth.
- the post After the post is positioned in the implant, it extends above the gum so that a dental prosthesis including a core can be retained in place. All single posts must resist normal rotational forces which occur during normal or abnormal functions.
- preformed posts do not provide good stability against rotational force because they are round and rotate easily when placed in a round hole in the implant. Screw type posts can exert large lateral stresses which lead to potential implant fixture fracture and tooth loss. If filling material is placed around a preformed post above the jawbone to accept a crown after the post is positioned, the strength and long term stability of this material becomes a weak link in long term success of the crown. In addition, proper design of the post above the jaw line is critical to resist rotation or dislodging of the filling material from the post.
- the dental post includes a stem portion having a slot extending through the stem thickness and along its length which renders the stem being formed of two legs each having its outside surface threaded. Theoutside surface of the legs intimately contact the walls of the bore so that the threads on the legs can engage the walls.
- a spring-like connection for the two legs is provided so that a radial outward spring force is applied to the legs to force them against the bore walls.
- U. S. Patent 1,534,409 discloses a two legged post having corrugated surfaces which fit into a root canal having generally parallel walls. This surface design materially reduces the post surface area which contacts the canal walls and thus post retention relies primarily upon cement adhesive strength.
- a dental implant having a bore for a dental post which can be inserted into a hole in the jaw.
- a dental implant with means to provide mechanical interaction in order to retain the post in the implant hole while minimizing or elimination forces on the implant walls exerted by the post.
- a system for utilizing such a dental implant and post system which facilitates the placement of a core and a crown.
- This invention provides a dental implant utilized in conjunction with a dental post in order to support a dental prosthesis.
- the implant is sized to be positioned within a hole of the jaw bone of a patient.
- the implant has an internal hole or bore of the implant such that the dental post cannot be rotated.
- the wall of the implant bore is provided with one or more wings or extensions which are shaped to engage one or more slots or indentations on the surface of the portion of the post which fits into the implant bore.
- the slot or indentation can be located on the bottom internal surface within which a key can fit.
- the key extends through the post and prevents the post from rotating.
- the key may also be used as a key and movable wing to prevent removal.
- the post slots can be positioned within the extensions or wings of the dental implant either by being moved radially or rotationally to engage the wings.
- slots When a plurality of slots are utilized in the post, they can be positioned at different vertical positions and/or different radial positions at the same or different vertical height.
- a dental post having slots that are moved radially into the wings includes one or more flexible legs each having a slot. These legs can be compressed radially inward so that the post can be positioned within the implant bore and the leg then can be allowed to expand so that the slot(s) cover and engage the wings in the implant.
- the slots when the slots are rotated over the wings, they can be positioned over the wings of the implant by holes which start at the bottom of the post which interconnect with vertical paths in the post.
- the vertical paths connect with the slots.
- the wings are inserted into the vertical paths and then rotated into the slots.
- a slot may exit to the side or bottom where a matching slot is on the bottom or side of the implant.
- a key or movable wing engages the slot in the post and in the side or bottom of the implant to prevent rotation or removal.
- a tight seal of the post to the implant may be accomplished through beveling, tight tolerances of a butt joint or O-rings.

- the dental implant of this invention includes a bore having at least one wing which permits locking a mating dental post having at least one slot into the implant without the need for screwing the post to place.
- the wings utilized in the implant or the slots in the post need not be of a continuous thread as would be necessary with a screw mechanism.
- the implant is utilized in conjunction with a dental post having a stem into which slots are placed. Alternatively, the slots may be placed above the stem and extending into the core with wings extending upward from the implant.
- the post and implant of this invention can be implanted under conditions to avoid the use of cement.
- the post can be removed, if desired, such as when an abscess occurs after implantation so that the abscess can be treated.
- the slots can be positioned over wings by moving a portion of the post radially into position or by rotating the post into position.
- the post When a portion of the post is moved radially into position it is formed from a plurality of legs separated by a space.
- the legs can be radially compressed inward so that the slots can clear the wings in the bore or the implant.
- the legs When the compression force is released, the legs resume a position so that they are essentially, parallel to each other and the slots fit over the wings in the walls of the implant.
- the slots canbe at the same or different heights.
- the slots can be the same or different sizes.
- the legs are not prestressed so as to avoid exertion of a force by the legs on the bore walls.
- the implant fixture is not subjected to a continuous expansion force from within the implant. Therefore, the implant is less likely to fracture during normal use as compared to an implant containing a dental post that exerts a continuing expansion force on an implant.
- the post can be implanted without employing a dental cement in the post and implant.
- the wings mechanically lock the post in place, and together with a key structure described below, lock the post and supported crown in place when the crown is cemented over the post.
- the elimination of cement within the implant and post is advantageous since, with present technology, when an implant fails and a post is present, the post cannot be removed for retreatment to eliminate infection or if post fracture occurs, removal of the implant is necessary.
- the post is removable, as in the case when cement within post and implant is not utilized, surgery can be avoided and the implant can be treated to eliminate infection.
- a key apparatus can be provided which fits into the space between the post legs. The key prevents flexing of the legs after the crown and core have been positioned on the dental post.
- the stem portion of the dental post can be formed of a unitary construction wherein slots are placed.
- the post is inserted into the implant bore so that the vertical pathways on the post which connect with the slots engage wings in the implant bore. When the wings have reached the same vertical position as the slots, the post is rotated so that the slots fit over the wings.
- the key can be inserted into the vertical pathways to prevent rotation of the post or the top surface of the implant can be angled relative to the path of insertion of the post. 11
- wings may extend upward from an implant.
- a key may be external or internal to lock the system into position.
- the external key may be part of a coping or the crown constructed on it.
- the post shaft may be placed at an angle relative to the implant and locked by a coping or crown which has a different path of insertion going over the post and implant tabs. The tabs, however, may be part of the coping and the slots part of implant.
- a key can be used to lock a coping or crown onto the post-implant.
- a coping is designed to fit over a post implant which is cast onto to form the final desired shape to construct a prosthesis on.
- a post is placed in an implant and locked into position to prevent removal and rotation of the post by a key.
- the key has the shape of the internal bore of the implant to lock the post or use definitive slots on the side or bottom of the implant.
