Definitions

  • This invention relates to dental burrs — cutting tools that are used by dentists for cutting into and removing material of the tooth, especially the enamel and dentin thereof.
  • the dental burrs of the present invention are particularly intended for use in the preparation of a tooth for subsequent placement of a crown, inlay, onlay, or veneer, or for other crown or bridge prosthodontics procedures, where it is required to reduce the surface of the tooth, or at least a portion of the surface of the tooth, by a specified amount.
  • reducing the surface of the tooth it is meant that a portion of the tooth is ground off, to be replaced by an artificial material.
  • Dental procedures have, for many years, involved several distinct kinds of surgical operations with differing purposes and effects. For example, dental procedures that most people undergo involve the removal from the tooth of a small portion thereof so as to remove dental caries that are effecting that tooth. The dental caries and at least a small portion of healthy tooth surrounding it are removed, the preparation that is thus produced is then ready to accept a filling, and the filling is then placed. A variety of drilling or cutting instruments are employed during such a procedure.
  • Another related procedure is the precise preparation of a tooth to accommodate a clasp or rest of prescribed dimensions for a removable partial denture.
  • all such related procedures the removal of the surface or at least a portion of the surface of the tooth to prepare it for subsequent placement of an artificial substance — will be considered as being in respect of dental crown preparation.
  • Dental burrs in keeping with the present invention can be used in such restoration procedures as various crown procedures using a variety of crown materials, as well as onlay or inlay procedures and the placing of a veneer on the tooth.
  • Crown procedures might be a full metal crown, or a porcelain fused to metal crown, or a full porcelain crown, or even an acrylic crown.
  • the importance of these distinctions is that the prescribed depth of reduction for proper preparation varies, depending on the nature of the crown or partial crown, inlay, onlay, or veneer, and yet the outer periphery of the dental prosthetic to be placed must replicate the original outer periphery of the tooth. Otherwise, discomfort occurs in the patient, or the restoration may not be cosmetically acceptable, or the restoration may not even fit properly. In any event, there could be a considerable loss of time and expense, to the patient, the dentist, and the dental prosthetics laboratory in the occurrence of inaccurate preparation and/or reduction.
  • dental crown preparation requires the dentist to grind or otherwise remove a specific amount of the surface of the tooth.
  • This procedure, reduction of the tooth generally requires that the depth or amount of reduction shall be from about 0.5 mm to about 2.0 mm.
  • the amount of reduction should vary on any one tooth in any one procedure — although that is possible; but it is to say that the amount of reduction may vary from tooth to tooth or procedure to procedure, depending on a number of circumstances that would be determined by the dentist at that time.
  • the amount of reduction might be somewhat less for purposes of placement of an onlay or inlay, or possibly a veneer, as opposed to the amount of reduction that might be required for the placement of a crown or partial crown.
  • dental burrs The dental procedures of grinding teeth, or cutting or abrading teeth, are generally carried out using rotationally driven cutting or grinding instruments, which in general might be classified as being dental burrs.
  • the usual classification of armamentarium may comprise a variety of rotary instruments that might be specifically classified as stones, burrs, or drills.
  • the stones are used for abrading or grinding down the surface of the tooth such as by the use of fine diamond chips or dust that are cemented to a base.
  • dental burrs may be considered to be miniature milling cutters, having a plurality of blades that shear away the tooth structure from the tooth surface and where the cutting blades are disposed along the sides of the instrument.
  • Drills specifically twist drills, have their cutting edges at the tips of the instrument, and are generally intended only so as to bore a small diameter hole into the tooth structure.
  • all of the above instruments may be generally considered to be dental burrs, and this will be especially so in the following discussion which proposes several alternative surface treatments or geometries for dental burr structures that are otherwise in keeping with the present invention.
  • the dentist When dental crown preparation is being undertaken, the dentist first determines how much surface reduction should be made. Then, the portion of the tooth surface, if not the entire tooth surface, is marked so as to determine the boundaries within which the procedure will be undertaken if it is not over the entire surface of the tooth. Tooth reduction then begins, and it is at this point that dental burrs according to the present invention will be used.
  • the general steps include tooth reduction, and then an impression of the remaining tooth is taken and sent to a dental prosthetics laboratory.
  • the laboratory then fabricates the crown, having made a model of the impression, and having been informed of the desired prosthesis type, they must assume that accurate reduction and/or preparation has been accomplished by the dentist to permit said prosthesis fabrication.
  • the dental prosthetics laboratory has in its hands a model of the tooth after the reduction has been made, and it is then required to build a crown to be cemented to the remaining portion of the tooth and to restore the depth of reduction that has been prepared by the dentist.
  • the crown is then fabricated and returned to the dentist for placement in the mouth, usually a few days or a week or so after the tooth reduction has been taken.
  • the manner by which the depth of the reduction is to be determined may vary slightly among dentists, but not significantly.
  • a dentist When a dentist is preparing the tooth for tooth reduction, he first cuts a series of grooves into the tooth. Almost invariably, the series of grooves is cut into the tooth using a long cutting burr that may be cylindrical, or which may be slightly tapered, but in any event the groove is cut into the surface of the tooth by placing the burr lengthwise against the tooth and pressing it into the tooth along the length of the burr while the burr is rotating. This creates a groove that is as long as the burr or at least the portion of the burr that is in contact with the surface of the tooth.
  • the depth of the groove is difficult to determine; and the usual practice is essentially to gauge the diameter of the burr and then sink the burr into the surface of the tooth for one-half of its diameter — or in some cases, its full diameter. After several grooves are placed into the surface of the tooth, then the remaining tooth material between the grooves is ground or abraded away, until the depth of the grinding or abrading of the material reaches the same depth as the grooves that have been previously cut into place by the side of a burr as noted above.
  • a dental burr whose purpose is to cut a groove into the tooth structure, where the groove has a specific and predetermined depth.
  • the depth of the groove to be cut into the tooth may only be as little as 0.5 mm in some cases, or it may be as much as 2.0 mm in other cases.
  • the depth of the groove should be uniform, because the dental prosthetics laboratory assumes that a constant depth of reduction has occurred over prescribed tooth areas for which the laboratory is fabricating the crown or other dental prosthetic.
  • the present application provides a dental burr whose structure is such that the grooves to be cut into the tooth structure, that is the tooth enamel and/or the tooth dentin, are always accurately determined and are of a predetermined depth.
  • the present invention provides a dental burr for use in preparation of a tooth for subsequent placement of a crown, or inlay, or for use in other crown or bridge prosthodontics procedures, where the dental burr structure comprises a body that has a stem adapted for placement at a first end thereof into a driving implement, so as to impart rotational driving force to the dental burr.
  • the dental burr structure comprises a body that has a stem adapted for placement at a first end thereof into a driving implement, so as to impart rotational driving force to the dental burr.
  • the cutting projection r ⁇ ay be surface treated in such a manner that it is capable of grinding or abrading the tooth structure.
  • An intermediate portion is formed in the body of the dental burr and is axially located between the first end and the second end thereof.
  • This intermediate portion is generally cylindrical, although it might be tapered, and it has a diameter which is greater than the diameter of the cutting projection.
  • the intermediate portion terminates in a shoulder that is located near the second end of the dental burr, and the shoulder is substantially planar and projects radially outwardly from the cutting projection.
  • the cutting projection projects axially along the body of the dental burr from the shoulder to the second end thereof.
  • the length of the cutting projection beyond the shoulder to the second end is of a predetermined and specific length.
  • the dental burr of the present may generally be contoured at its second end in a manner so that when the second end — the outer end of the dental burr — is placed against a surface of a tooth and the dental burr is rotationally driven, and at the same time a slight axially directed pressure is applied along the dental burr against the tooth's surface, a cutting or boring action by the dental burr into the tooth surface will occur.
  • the present invention also provides methods of manufacture for the dental burr.
  • the method that is proposed hereby comprises at least the steps of machining the generally cylindrical cutting portion of the dental burr which is located at the second end thereof, by forming a cutting groove or grooves that may be formed generally spirally in the outer periphery thereof.
  • the cutting portion of the dental burr may have a surface formed thereon so as to be an abrading or grinding surface, such as by the secure deposition of an abrading medium such as diamond chips or diamond dust.
  • the manufacture of a dental burr in keeping with the present invention requires that a cylindrical intermediate portion shall be formed so that it terminates in a shoulder that is located near the second end of the burr.
  • the shoulder projects radially outwardly from the cutting portion of the burr at a place which is located at a predetermined and specific length from the second end thereof — that distance being the length of the cutting projection.

  • Intermediate portion 24(b) and cutting projection 20(b) of the dental burr of Figure 2(b) may be of the same length as those in Figure 2(a), but the cutting projection 20(b) is differently formed by having a grinding or abrading surface 30.
  • the grinding or abrading surface 30 may be formed by cementing or otherwise securing diamond chips or diamond dust to a steel core, in a manner well known in the dental armamentarium industry.
  • the length of any projection 20, 20(a), or 20(b), is predetermined and of a specific length, so that a groove cut into the tooth structure using the dental burr will have a specific depth.
  • This specific depth is, of course, achieved because of the interference of the shoulder 26 with the outer surface of the tooth structure when the cutting projection 20 has extended sufficiently far into the tooth structure as to cause that interference to occur.
  • the dentist needs merely to guide the dental burr along the tooth in a predetermined direction —which might be axially along the tooth or across the base of the tooth in the gingival portion thereof, for example. Because the length of the cutting projection 20 is predetermined, then the dentist is assured that he will cut a groove of the same depth as the length of that cutting projection, no matter what the contour of the tooth may be.
  • the dental burr is driven by the handpiece, and is held so as to extend substantially perpendicularly away from the surface of the tooth, no matter what its contour.
  • any tooth may be easily accomplished, no matter what the contour or curvature, or other surface formation, that tooth may have, with the assurance that the dental reduction will be constant at a predetermined depth.
  • a step in the formation of a dental burr is shown, whereby an already manufactured dental burr which may generally have a cutting portion 32 has been provided, where the length of the cutting portion 32 is longer than the intended length of the cutting projection 20 that will be formed.

  • spiral, or double-spiral channels could be cut into the outer periphery of the intermediate portion 24 so that coolant may be delivered from that channel into the depth gauge grooves being cut into the tooth structure.
  • spiral channels could be cut or machined into the inner surface of the sleeve 34, before it is placed over the dental burr in the manner shown.
  • Those spiral channels cut into the inner surface of the sleeve 34 would be formed so as to be parallel to the cutting grooves that are already present in the cutting portion 32 of the dental burr, and would therefore be arranged so as to deliver coolant internally of the sleeve 34 to the tooth, with the coolant exiting from beneath the sleeve 34 at the shoulder 26.
  • the dental burr 10 might have been machined in such a manner that a raw piece of appropriate bar stock is cut so as to form the stem 14, the intermediate portion 24, and the cutting projection 20, and thereafter the cutting projection 20 is either machined or otherwise treated so as to place cutting grooves 22 or a grinding or abrading surface such as 30, on the cutting projection 20.

  • the depth of the groove cut by such a burr 44 is determined usually by part of the diameter of the burr, up to or exceeding its full diameter, and is therefore dependent on the skill of the dentist in judging when the burr has ground into the tooth structure for the appropriate part of its diameter or its full diameter.
  • the surface 46 of a burr 44 may have a number of spirally cut grooves or milling edges, or alternatively it may be coated with diamond chips or diamond dust.
  • the finishing stone 48 shown in Figure 4(c) may serve the same general purposes of the grinding wheel 40, discussed above.
  • the finishing stone 48 has a configuration that is essentially spherical, and is one that is particularly used for lingual reduction of a tooth. Using this tool, a series of potholes are sunk into the lingual surface of the tooth up to one-half or some other portion of the diameter of the stone, so as to establish a depth gauge, and then to finish the reduction by connecting the established potholes using the same tool.
  • the surface 50 is coated with diamond chips or diamond dust.
  • One of the objectives of the present invention is to permit the dentist who is performing the crown preparation procedure to choose an appropriate dental burr whereby the depth of the grooves that he proposes to cut will be at the predetermined depth that he has decided that they should be.
  • This selection can be accomplished, for example, by colour coding the dental burrs so that at least the intermediate portion 24 of any dental burr may have a specific colour formed on its outer periphery, where the colour is chosen so as to be indicative of the length of the cutting projection beyond the shoulder.
  • the colour of the intermediate portion may be chosen so as to be mutually distinctive from any other colour that may be chosen so as to be indicative of another specific length of the cutting portion.

  • the methods of manufacture of the dental burr in keeping with the present invention, thereby require that the dental burr 10 comprises a body 12 having a stem portion 14 and a first end 16 thereof, a cutting projection 20 at a second end 18 thereof, and a cylindrical intermediate portion 24 that is axially located between the first and second ends, and wherein the method at least comprises the steps of:
  • the cylindrical intermediate portion 24 can be formed by placing a cylindrical sleeve 34, which has a planar end 38, over the cutting portion 32 of a dental burr, and fixing it in place so that the planar end 38 forms the shoulder 26.
  • the second face 18 of the dental burr may be machined so as to have a cutting contour formed therein, as noted above.
  • the cylindrical intermediate portion 24 of the dental burr no matter how it is manufactured, may be colour treated so that the colour of the cylindrical intermediate portion 24 is chosen so as to be indicative of the length of the cutting projection 20 beyond the shoulder 26, and generally also so that the colour is mutually distinctive of any other colour that has been chosen to be indicative of another specific length of the cutting projection 20 beyond the shoulder 26.
  • the present inventor is the Registrant of a Canadian Registered Industrial Design, Registration No. 70,775, issued June 5, 1992, for a Dental Burr.
  • the dental burr of that Industrial Design Registration was contemplated more as having a cutting front face, with a spirally formed groove in a short front, coaxial projection, as well as a plurality of longitudinal ridges.
  • That dental bun- was intended more to function as a twist drill, in slow-speed handpieces, so as to establish a pilot hole of a specific depth, for other purposes.
  • dental burrs in keeping with the present invention are generally used in air-driven turbine handpieces, as opposed to mechanically driven handpieces.
  • dental burrs in keeping with the present invention results in several immediate advantages.
  • the depth of the groove to be cut by the dentist so as to establish the amount of reduction that shall occur can be exactly determined.
  • the dental prosthetic laboratory can provide an accurate crown or partial crown structure or other dental prosthodontics casting, with the assurance that it replicates the prior outer surface of the tooth to which it is being fixed. This, in turn, reduces costs to the dental prosthetic laboratory, costs to the dentist, and costs to the patient. It is intended that dental burrs in keeping with the present invention shall only be used once for a dental crown preparation, and then discarded. That is because the dental burrs may be very economically produced and provided to the dentist.
  • the dentist may, in fact, reduce the time required for the procedure. This, in turn, reduces the fatigue that might otherwise be experienced by both the dentist and the patient.
  • the dentist is preparing the tooth structure during the dental reduction procedure in the gingival area
  • use of dental burrs in keeping with the present invention permit more easy and accurate preparation for the shoulder of the crown to be manufactured.
  • That shoulder may, depending on various factors including what tooth is being worked on, what the purpose of the crown or inlay may be, the practice of the dentist and/or the practice of the dental prosthetic laboratory, might be a butt shoulder, a chamfer or stepped-chamfer shoulder, or one that is bevelled, and so on.
  • the accuracy of the contour to be formed, however, is more easily assured; and also there is less likelihood of trauma for the patient.
  • dental burrs of the present invention can also be used in other related crown or dental preparation procedures such as repair of a pre-existing restoration such as old crown, or even an old filling — especially fillings that have been placed in the labial or lingual surfaces of the tooth.
  • a very specific depth and area of restoration may be assured, as discussed above.
  • the concern is that mercury may evaporate or otherwise dis-associate itself from the silver-amalgam restoration at the surface thereof, and become systemic within the body of the patient.
  • the dental burr of the present invention can be used to define the periphery of the portion of the silver- amalgam restoration to be removed, as well as to define its depth in the manner discussed above, so that no trauma is caused to the otherwise healthy tooth. This represents a further area of tooth preparation where dental burrs of the present invention can easily be used at lesser expense and without the risk of trauma, than otherwise would be the case.
  • Dental burrs in keeping with the present invention would normally, therefore, be supplied to the dentist in protective, sealed and sterile packaging. It is possible that the dentist may choose to re-sterilize the dental burr in a dental autoclave, in which case the structure of the burr and perhaps even the colour coding on the burr should not be such that it would be destroyed by an autoclave sterilization procedure. Such procedures are not recommended, but might be carried out, especially by dentists in third-world countries where an ongoing and assured supply of new dental burrs might be problematic.
  • dental burrs in keeping with the present invention assure a more efficient dental crown procedure, either in terms of costs or of time allotted for that procedure, with greater assurance that when the crown is fitted to the tooth it will exactly serve its purpose without additional preparation procedures either by the dentist or the dental prosthetic laboratory.
  • the scope of the present invention is defined by the accompanying claims.

Abstract

Cette invention concerne une fraise dentaire, laquelle est prévue spécifiquement pour la préparation d'une dent en vue de la pose d'une couronne, d'un inlay ou d'un onlay, ou de la pose de tout autre prothèse dentaire. Qu'il s'agisse de la pose d'une couronne, d'un inlay ou d'un onlay, ou de tout autre processus faisant appel à une prothèse dentaire de type bridge, il est nécessaire de tailler tout d'abord une série de gorges d'une profondeur spécifique et prédéterminée, après quoi les arêtes ainsi créées entre les gorges taillées dans l'émail ou la dentine seront meulées. La profondeur des gorges doit toutefois demeurer précise. La fraise dentaire selon la présente invention permet d'obtenir cette précision grâce à sa structure, laquelle présente une saillie de coupe (20) orientée vers l'extérieur et se prolongeant au-delà d'un épaulement (26) formé dans la fraise, cette saillie ayant une longueur spécifique et prédéterminée. Il est ainsi possible de tailler une gorge spécifique à l'aide d'une fraise spécifique. La partie intermédiaire (24) de la fraise, qui se termine à l'épaulement, peut être d'une couleur précise indiquant la longueur spécifique de la saillie de coupe. Cette partie intermédiaire peut être usinée dans le même matériau que celui utilisé pour la fraise, ou peut encore être formée par montage d'un manchon cylindrique (34) sur une fraise déjà existante, et fixation de ce dernier de manière à ce que la saillie de coupe soit de la longueur voulue.
