Definitions
- a process of treating a metal dental implant inserted into or placed on the alveolar bone, in order to provide anchorage or stabilization ei ⁇ ther to teeth or to a prosthesis which involves the improvement of ap- plying to one or more portions of the implant or to the locus of the im ⁇ plant in the alveolar bone, a special biocompatible crosslinked resin that optionally contains leachable fluoride, to effect direct bonding of the implant to teeth or to a prosthesis, or to bone or to non-osseous tis ⁇ sue or a combination of them.
- the invention relates as well to the treated prosthetic.
- GeristoreTM and TenureTM sold by Den-Mat Corporation, Santa Maria, CA, are promoted for certain uses in dentistry.
- GeristoreTM is a small particle composite that con ⁇ tains fluoride, is radiopaque and hydrophilic. It has low-cure shrink ⁇ age, low coefficient of thermal expansion and high strength. It aggres ⁇ sively bonds by chemical coupling to dentin, enamel, composites used in dentistry, porcelain and metal, such as stainless steel. It is a paste/paste formulation that is easy to mix.
- TenureTM is a solvent based crosslinkable acrylic resin, provided as a solution/solution formulation. Its composition is described in U.S. Patent No. 4,964,911, patented October 27, 1990, and more effectively disclosed in allowed copending application Serial No. 965, 102, filed Oc- tober 22, 1992, to issue as U.S. Patent Re , the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference. It is not an ionomer and does not release fluoride ion.
- GeristoreTM It is less hydrophilic than GeristoreTM. It too is a crosslinkable resin. It contains a volatile solvent (typically acetone), which readily evaporates. After evaporation, a film of the resin rapidly cures in situ. TenureTM bonds by chemical coupling to dentin, enamel, porcelain, metal and the composites typically used in dentistry. It has been recommended for use with GeristoreTM in chemically bonding GeristoreTM to dentin or enamel.
- Dental implantation i.e., oral implantation, involves the insertion a prosthesis in bone or the fixing of a prosthesis to bone.
- the implant is typically a metal pin, blade or casting inserted into or placed on the al ⁇ veolar bone in order to provide anchorage or stabilization either to teeth or to a prosthesis.
- Anchorage of the prosthesis in bone is dependent on bone growth around and through the prosthesis, and/or the presence of threading in the prosthesis that forms a complementary threading in the bone.
- Many prosethesis used in dental implantation are screwed into the bone.
- a prosthesis, in the context of dental implants includes the device that anchors or stabilizes (e.g., metal pin, blade or casting) and the device that is so anchored or stabilized.
- the latter device can be an acrylic resin or composite material (e.g., a filled resin) crafted (by molding, shaping, etc.) into the shape of a tooth or a set of teeth.
- An endodontic implant comprises a metal pin or post extending through the root canal into the periapical bone to lengthen and strengthen a pulp- less tooth.
- An Endosteal (endosseous) i.e., the thin layer of cells lining the medullary cavity of a bone] implant is an implant, usually of metal, introduced into the maxilla or mandible so that part of it protrudes into the mouth.
- the implant consists of three parts: a.) the body which is placed in the bone, b.) the abutment, which is visible in the mouth and supports and/or retains the prosthesis (or superstructure) and c.) the superstructure to which other components are attached.
- An implanta ⁇ tion denture employs a prosthesis which obtains its stabihty and reten ⁇ tion from a substructure lying under the soft tissues of the denture- bearing area, and which projects through the gingival tissues, e.g., sub- periosteal, blade, or pin.
- a subpe ⁇ osteal implant is an implant that conforms to the bone surface of the jaw, and is covered with mucope- riosteum, having abutments exposed in the mouth on which bridges, dentures, etc. may be fixed.
- An implantation denture substructure is a metal framework lying in contact with, or embedded in, bone. Projec ⁇ tions from it pass through the mucoperiosteum to support an implant denture.
- the Osseointergraded implant is an implant in which there exists a direct connection between its surface and the host bone.
- a dio- dontic implant is a sterile metal rod placed in a root canal and extend ⁇ ing through the root apex with the intention of stabilizing a tooth, espe ⁇ cially one with a short root.
- Mandibular staple implant is a modified endosseous implant in which the metal appliance passes through the entire height of the man ⁇ dible in the anterior region where posts pierce the oral mucosa in order to give fixation points to a suitable superstructure.
- One reason for the inadequacies of some ad ⁇ hesives has been their inability to provide a strong enough bond be ⁇ tween bone and the prosthesis.
- an effective bonding cement is often bioincompatible to the bone and any soft tissue associated with the implantation procedure.
- adhesives can generate an adverse reaction, possibly to the extent that bone growth is inhibited and the growth about the prothesis is inhibit, thereby im ⁇ pairing the strength of the implant.
- an adverse tissue response to an implant is low, there are times when an implant can induce such a response
- metals or other foreign materials used in implants may in ⁇ cute, e.g, tissue infection, fibrous tissue bonding to the implant, an epithelial inversion around the neck of implant resulting in tissue in- flammation, and the like.
- the Invention relates to dental implantation as described above. More particularly, the invention relates to an improvement in the proc ⁇ ess of treating a metal dental implant inserted into or placed on the al ⁇ veolar bone, to provide anchorage or stabilization either to teeth or to a prosthesis.
- the process includes in the traditional steps of dental im ⁇ plantation, the application to one or more portions of the implant or to the locus of the implant in the alveolar bone, of a special biocompatible crosslinked resin that optionally contains leachable fluoride, to effect direct bonding of the implant to teeth or to a prosthesis, or to bone or to non-osseous tissue or a combination of them.
- the invention includes in the process of implant- ing a metal dental prosthesis into or on the alveolar bone, to provide anchorage or stabilization either to a tooth or to another prosthesis, which involves surgical exposure of the alveolar bone, providing means for (a) fixing a metal implant in the alveolar bone, and (b) fixing the metal implant to either a tooth or to the other prosthesis, and closing the exposure of the alveolar bone to effect normal healing of the surgi ⁇ cally affected site, the improvement which comprises including in re ⁇ spect to such means the step of applying to one or more portions of the implant or to the locus of the implant in the alveolar bone, a crosslinked resin that (i) optionally contains leachable fluoride and (ii) is biocom- patible with osseous and non-osseous tissue, to effect direct bonding of the implant to the tooth or to the prosthesis, or to bone or to non- osseous tissue or a combination of them.
- This invention relates to the improvement in the process of im ⁇ planting a dental prothetic into or on bone by using a certain biocom- patible adhesive to materially improves the bonding strength of the prothetic to bone. It has been found that a particular adhesive can be applied to a prosthetic device that is inserted into or placed on the al ⁇ veolar bone, to provide maximum biocompatibility and superior adhe ⁇ sion of the prosthetic device to bone and surrounding tissue.
- the invention relates to an improved implantation process that is distinctive because it involves the step of coating at least one of (a) a dental prosthetic to be implanted in or on the alveolar bone and (b) the locus in the alveolar bone where the prosthetic is to be implanted, with a) a tenaciously-bonded hydrophilic water insoluble crosslinked resin coating (hereinafter called “the primary coating"), b) that optionally contains a measurable amount of a wa- ter/fluid leachable fluoride capable of (a) being leached from the coating in a metered amount, and (b) transport ⁇ ing a small amount of leached fluoride from the coating into the bone and associated soft tissue (hereinafter called "the primary coating with fluoride”).
- the invention encompasses a process that enhances normal alveolar bone growth impacted by the insertion of a metal pros ⁇ thetic device in the bone during dental implantation of the prosthetic .
- a prosthetic device typically made of metal, ceramic or plastic
- the invention relates to a metal dental implant prosthesic as de ⁇ scribed herein that contains, on at least a portion of thereof, a layer of the primary coating with or without fluoride whereby the implant is biocompatible to tissue that it might contact in or during implantation.
- the primary coating on the prosthetic con ⁇ tains fluoride.
- the amount of fluoride provided in the primary coating is insuffi ⁇ cient to cause fluorosis or any other toxic reaction, and, by processes unknown, except possibly antimicrobial processes, the fluoride assists the normal processes of bone and tissue growth.
- the invention also encompasses in these dental implantation proc ⁇ esses, the use of a composite layering of a strongly adhesively-bonded crosslinkable acrylic resin, possessing less hydrophilicity than the pri- mary coating with or without fluoride, that rapidly in situ cures on an application surface, the bone and/or prosthetic surface, to function as a primer (hereinafter called the "primer coating") for the primary coating with or without fluoride that is applied to the same surface(s).
- a primer hereinafter called the "primer coating”
- the bio ⁇ compatibility of the primary coating on the surface, bone and/or pros- thetic device over the primer coating enhances healing, the adhesion of the bone to bone and bone to softer tissue, and prosthetic device to bone or softer tissue, and precludes or minimizes bone or softer tissue rejec ⁇ tion to the surgical implantation procedure.
- the primary coating comprises a resin based on an ethylenically unsaturated-functional monomer that contains a hygroscopic group.
- the ethylenically-unsaturated-functional monomer contains hygro ⁇ scopic groups and exhibits hydrophilicity. Typical of such groups are hydroxyl, amide, amine, aliphatic ether, amine, hydroxyalkyl amine, hydroxyalkyl amide, pyrrolidone, ureyl, and the like.
- Another ingredient of the primary coating composition is a polycar ⁇ boxylic acid, i.e., a polymer that contains pendant carboxyl groups.
- the polycarboxylic acid is thought to enhance bonding of the primary coat ⁇ ing resins to metallic and other substrates, particularly to organic and inorganic salt forming materials that are present in the substrate to which the primary coating is applied.
- the polycarboxylic acid enhances the bonding of the resin components of the primary coating composition to any inorganic fillers provided in the coating for ⁇ mulation.
- the polycarboxylic acid may be excluded from the primary coating formulation.
- one may employ the alkali metal salt ofthe polycarboxylic acid.
- the primary coating contains a variety of crosslinking agents.
- One type of crosslinking agent is "hard crosslinker” and an ⁇ other is a “soft crosslinker.”
- Both hard and soft crosslinker are poly- functional molecules in which the functionality is complementary to the ethylenic unsaturation of the ethylenically-unsaturated-functional monomer.
- the functional groups are bonded via an ahphatic group of up to 10 carbon atoms, to a central moiety that is aromatic in nature, that is, comprises a group that has the rigidity characteristics of a benzene ring.
- Illustrative of such rigid groups are aromatic rings such as benzene, biphenyl, anthracyl, benzo ⁇ phenone, norbornyl, and the like.
- Such hard crosslinkers raise the T g of the cured coating,
- the soft crosslinker contains the functional groups bonded to a cen- tral moiety that is ahphatic in nature, that is, comprises a group that has the flexibility of an alkane or an alkyl benzene containing .
- Illus ⁇ trative of such flexible groups are the residues of ethylene glycol, dieth ⁇ ylene glycol, 2,2-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)propane, 2,2,-bis(4- hydroxyphenyl)fluorinated alkanes, and the like.
- Such soft crosslinkers toughen the cured coating and can raise the T g of the cured coating, but not as high as the typical hard crosslinker,
- the coating contains a coupling agent as part of its formulation. These coupling agents provide chemical bonding to the surface to which the coating is applied.
- Chemical bonding means strong and weak bonding forces. Strong bonding forces, as used herein, refers to covalent, ionic, hydrogen bonding and complexation, and weak bonding forces, encompasses the other forms of bonding. Where weak bonding forces are employed, the extent of such bonding is such that the adhesion to the surface is of the nature of a stronger bonding force. For example, van der Waal forces are weak bonding forces. In the case of the invention, the amount of such forces existing between the coating and the surface will be sufficient to give the performance of a stronger bonding force.
- a desirable coupling agent is a material, such as a molecule, that is functionally complementary to the ethylenically-unsaturated-functional monomer.
- the coupling agent contains a functional group that is reactable with the ethylenic unsaturation.
- the func ⁇ tional group is an acrylic-type ethylenic unsaturation.
- At another part of the coupling agent molecule is a surface bonding group that can im ⁇ part one or more properties to the primary coating: 1) chemical bonding capabilities to the substrate surface to which the primary coating is applied; and/or 2) wetting agent properties in that it reduces the surface tension of the coating, causing the coating to spread across or penetrate more easily the surface of the substrate onto which the primary coating is applied.
- the utilization the primary coating with fluoride is a special and significant embodiment of the invention.
- the fluoride component op ⁇ tionally provided in the primary coating is desirably present in the coating such that it is leachable from the coating over an extended pe- riod of time.
- the primary coating formula ⁇ tion is provided with a conventional free-radical catalytic curing agent and/or a free-radical photoinitiator.
- the coat ⁇ ing can be cured by each of the system, preferably by both to insure that volatile monomeric components are left as residual components in the coating. This avoids the possibility of toxic reaction to the presence of such volatile monomeric components.
- the invention relates to the im ⁇ provement where the primary coating comprises a two component sys- tem of: (a) a first component comprising:
- the fluoride source such as a particulate siliceous fluoride con ⁇ taining filler in which the fluoride is water leachable

- a particularly desirable form of the fluoride component is an inor ⁇ ganic fluoride in which the fluoride is present, e.g., in the form of an fluorosilicate structure or an alumina fluoride structure.
- fluoride structures Illustrative of such fluoride structures are fluorite (or fluorspar), CaF 2 , BaF 2, SrF 2 , cryolite, Na3AlF 6> and fluorapatite, 3Ca3(PO 4 )2Ca(F,Cl) 2 .
- a preferred fluoride source is described in U.S. Patent No. 5,360,770.
- the fluoride source of the patent is a glass composition in which the fluoride content is derived from an alkahne earth metal fluoride such as calcium fluo- ride, barium fluoride and strontium fluoride.
- a particularly preferred glass composition that provides fluoride is the following:
- M is an alkaline earth metal and MO is barium oxide and barium oxide binary and ternary mixtures with other alkaline earth metal oxides, such as BaO, BaO-CaO, BaO-SrO and CaO-BaO-SrO.
- Such preferred source of fluoride not only provides long term fluoride release from the primary coating but it also provides an essentially uni ⁇ form release of fluoride over that period of time.
- Figures 1 and 2 illus- trate the long term fluoride leachability of this fluoride source.
- FIG. 1 illustrates the release of fluoride by placing the aforementioned bar ⁇ ium oxide based glass in water and determining the release of fluoride over an extended period of time.
- the fluoride release follows a straight line showing uniform release over 550 days, about V ⁇ years.
- Figure 2 shows area plots of ingredients in order to optimize the glass formulation for maximizing the fluoride release over an extended period, e.g., V ⁇ years.
- the light-initiated curing of a polymerizable matrix material involves photosensitization of light-sensitive compounds by ultraviolet or visible light, which, in turn, initiates polymerization of the matrix material.
- the photoinitiator to be used in this invention comprises a combination of a photosensitive ketone and a tertiary amine.
- Typical photosensitive ketones include benzophenone, acetophenone, thioxanthen-9-one, 9-fluorenone, an- thraquinone, 4'-methoxyacetophenone, diethoxyacetophenone, biacetyl, 2,3-pentadione, benzyl, 4,4'-methoxybenzil, 4,4'-oxidibenzil, and 2,3- bornadione (dl camphroquinone).
- Typical tertiary amines include ethyl- 4-dimethyl amino benzoate, ethyl- 2 -dimethyl amino benzoate, 4,4'- bis(dimethylamino) benzophenone, N-methyldiethanolamine, and di- methylaminobenzaldehyde.
- a preferred combination of the photoini- tiators is 2,3-bornanedione with ethyl-4-dimethyl amino benzoate.
- any known photosensitizing system which can function effec ⁇ tively in a paste/paste composition when exposed to light may substi- tute for the above-named compounds or combinations.
- the amount of the photoinitiator should be sufficient to initiate polymerization in a selected resin and complete it in depth within about half a minute when the filler-resin composition is exposed to a visible-light output of at least 5,000 foot candles.
- any known free-radical scavenger (anti-oxidants) such as butylated hydroxytoluene can be used to scav ⁇ enge small amounts of free radicals generated during extended shelf storage.
- the polymerization system of the primary coating composition may depend on effecting cure with either the photoinitiator or by use of a thermal initiator, which is a typical thermal curing agent known in the art. Illustrative of these are benzoyl peroxide, dicumyl peroxide, diter- tiary butyl peroxide, tertiary butyl hydroperoxide, cumyl hydroperoxide, or other suitable peroxides may initiate polymerization of the polym ⁇ erizable ethylenically unsaturated components of the primary coating. Addition of such thermal initiators is desirable to insure complete po ⁇ lymerization.
- the peroxide initiates curing of the uncured material thermally upon standing.
- Benzoyl peroxide may be used together with 2-hydroxyethyl- p -toluidine.
- the primary coating may contain pigments such as iron oxide or ti ⁇ tanium oxide and a color stabilizing agent such as 2,2-hydroxy-5-tert. octyl pheny lbenzotriazole.
- the selection of the ingredients in formulating the coating is narrowly critical.
- Illustrative of such a formulation is the paste/paste primary coating composition as set forth in Table 2.
- the two pastes, Paste A and Paste B, are preferably mixed well in equal amounts.
- the pastes may be mixed with a spatula or put onto a blade mixer prior to apphcation to a surface.
- the physi ⁇ cian or technician may use the system by combining the pastes in the ratios desired, and then mixing them.
- the resulting paste is then ap ⁇ plied to the surface as needed.
- the coating will self-cure in about 20-30 minutes, but cures instantly on exposure to light. Light having a wave length of about 480 77M at an intensity of about 5000 foot-candles is pre ⁇ ferred. An exposure of about 30 second is sufficient to cure the cement in most applications.
- a primer coating may be applied to the treated sur ⁇ face before coating on the primary coating. This may be effected by the following procedure:
- a solu ⁇ tion comprising a solvent and at least one compound selected from the group consisting of (1) N-phenylglycine, (2) the adduct of N-(p- tolyl)glycine and glycidyl methacrylate, (3) the addition reaction product of N-phenylglycine and glycidyl methacrylate, and (4) other amino acids, in which each member of the group of (1), (2), (3) and (4) that is present in the solution is an alkali metal salt form of that member, and a solution comprising at least one monomer selected from the group consisting of (1) the addition reaction product of py- romellitic acid dianhydride and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, (2) the addition reaction product of 3,3', 4,4'-benzophenone tetracar- boxylic dianhydride and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, (3) 4- methacryloxyethyltrimellitic-anhydride
- the invention can involve forming a cured patch of the primary coating on glass >r Teflon® with a knife coater.
- the coat- ing should be as thin as workable, such as from about 1 to about 100 mils.
- the patch may have a thickness of about 0.75 mil to about 95 mils, preferably from abou'. 2 to about 50 mils. Its length and width is dependent upon where tba patch is to be employed.
- the patch can be inserted ir co the bone cavity, typically at the floor of the cavity, that is created for the implant and with paste of the primary coating applied to it, ne patch can be adhesively bonded to the bone or prosthesis dependir ⁇ on where the paste is applied. Because the patch is biocompatible, it is not rejected and, as such, will aid the natural growth of new ⁇ one without infection.
- the primer coating may contain solvent solutions of the free acid or alkali metal salt of (i) N-phenylglycine, (ii) the adduct of N-(p- tolyl)glycine and glycidyl methacrylate, which are illustrated by the structures:
- Y is one of the alkali metals, i.e., lithium, sodium, potassium, ru ⁇ bidium and cesium, preferably sodium or potassium, and (iii) the adduct of N-phenylglycine and glycidyl methacrylate, the alkali metal salt thereof, or the mixture of the foregoing two compounds, which com- pounds are illustrated by the structures, and (iii) the adduct of N- phenylglycine and glycidyl methacrylate, which are illustrated by the structures:
- the preferred sol ⁇ vent is a mixture of water and a polar solvent such as acetone.
- the surface When applying the primer coating, the surface may be prepared with an acid wash as disclosed in the aforementioned reissue applica- tion.
- the first stage of the primer coating may be a solvent solution of the NTG-GMA adduct, typically dried before the second solution is ap ⁇ plied to it.
- the second stage is a solution of, e.g., PMDM that is coated over the first stage. That coating is also dried before applying the pri ⁇ mary coating.
- the primer coating On drying, the primer coating is cured. Drying may be effected at ambient conditions, or accelerated by the addition of heat to the undried coating.
- the primary coating may be brushed or injected with a conventional hypodermic needle from a conventional hypodermic sy- ringe onto and within the cavity formed by drilling into the alveolar bone.
- the prosthesis can then be inserted into the cavity by screwing or tapping it in, or if the cavity is oversized for the prosthesis, then the adhesive, with or without a patch, can be used to fill the space between the prosthesis and the bone wall(s) of the cavity.
- the primary coating can be set by exposing the coating to light or by heating the area to a temperature that causes the initiator to decompose and initiate polym ⁇ erization, resulting in a cured resin. Bone growth then occurs through and about the cavity to which the primary coating is applied without rejection of the coating. Portions of the prosthesis may not be confined by bone, and may extend through the mucoperiosteum and the gingiva.
- FIG. 3 is side view of a blade prosthetic implant 1.
- it is made wholly of a metal such as stainless steel and its alloys or of titanium and titanium alloys. It comprises blade 3 con ⁇ taining cavities 5 into which bone growth can occur.
- FIG. 1 Attached to blade 3, as shown, are cylindrical pins 7 to which are affixed tapered cylindri- cal posts or abutment 9. Each post or abutment 9 contains an unta- pered cylindrical hollow interior 6 that contains helical or advancing spiral thread 11. Interior 6 can be entered through opening 13.
- Figure 4 shows implant 8 comprising mandible 15, teeth 14, blade prosthetic implant 1, prosthetic tooth 10 and locking screw 2. In this embodiment, the mandible is drilled to create cavity 4 into which blade prosthetic implant 1 is fitted. Cavity 4 is then filled by injection with primary coating, in this case functioning as a potting material, and on cure of the primary coating, implant 1 is securely bonded in place.
- a patch of primary coating can be placed on the bottom of cavity 4, and af- fixed thereat by the paste of primary coating coating on its surface that directly contacts bone.
- cavity 4 can be drilled just wide enough to insert blade 3 within cavity 4, and though primary coating may be injected into that space, bone growth can be relied on to fix blade 3 and implant 1 in the bone.
- Prosthetic tooth 10 is placed over post or abutment 9.
- the tooth may be made of an acrylic resin or of a conventional composite material. Tooth 10 is screwed to post or abut ⁇ ment 9 with screw 2 typically containing a hex key head.

- implant 19 in which the mandible 15 onto which the implant is made, is shown in cross section.
- Implant 24 conforms to the bone surface 15, via wire 18 and crossover braces 20 attached to a similarly positioned wire (not shown) on the other side of the mandible.
- the oppositely positioned wire (not shown) contains in ⁇ wardly position pins 22 that are positioned in drilled holes 21.
- Implant 24 is covered with mucoperiosteum 17, and has posts or abutments 9 extending from pins 7 bonded to braces 20, to be exposed in the mouth above gingiva 16. Bridges, dentures, etc. may be fixed to posts or abutments 9, e.g., as shown in Figures 3 and 4.
- Figure 6 is a partial cross sectional front view of a mandible con- taining a trans-mandibular implant.

- a por- tion of base surface (not shown) wraps around mandible 15, and is con ⁇ nected to pins 27 inserted into holes drilled in the bone.
- Figure 7 illustrates a cross sectional side view of a two stage endos ⁇ seous implants located in alveolar bone.
- implant 40 it comprising a cylindrical hner containing an exterior thread 34 and a hollow threaded 33 interior into which screw 37 can be placed. Its up ⁇ per surface 36 lays at the bone 39 surface that interfaces with mucope- riosteum 17. It is provided with a transverse hole into which bone growth will penetrate serving to lock the implant in position.
- Implant 41 is more elongated and extends through mucoperiosteum 17 and gin- giva 16. It comprises an abutment 29, threaded portion 30 and helical threaded portion 31. It also contains a plurality of transverse holes 32 serving to accept bone growth.
