Description
DEVICE FOR INSTALLING IN THE ORAL CAVITY DENTAL PROSTHESES WITH IMPLANT SUPPORT AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING THE CORRECT APPLICATION OF SUCH DEVICE
The present invention relates to a device for installing in the oral cavity dental prostheses with implant support, as well as an apparatus for controlling the correct application of such device.
Nowadays it is common in the field of dental surgery to make dental prostheses by inserting, in a mandibular bone or jawbone, an implant, on which a superstructure called an abutment is mounted, on which the actual dental prosthesis is then fixed.
Since practically everyone, sooner or later, suffers from dental problems, the market of the dental industry is continuously expanding and developing.
The improvements, although ongoing, of the industrial manufacture technique of such implant components have not, however, overcome major difficulties of application at the clinical level, not least because of the factors of extreme individuality of the several problems and of the corresponding technical solutions that can be adopted, and in fact highly specialist professionals are needed to make dental prostheses, thus generating a high incidence of the cost of labor, in addition to the fact that the production of the prosthesis comes to depend directly on the operator.
Nowadays there are a plurality of implant systems on the market, and the problem that arises is that of being aware of the existence, and of being able to source and have available, the components and the proper instruments for using each individual system.
Furthermore, such different implant systems differ from each other in details that cannot be perceived by the naked eye, thus creating real difficulties for dental surgeons in managing their work, as well as communication difficulties between the dental surgeon and the patient.
In particular, no systems are known today for directly controlling the
configuration of intra-ossal implants for multi-implant prostheses, which make it possible to verify the correct positioning of the abutments directly in the mouth of the patient before mounting the prosthesis.
The aim of the present invention is to provide a device for installing in the oral cavity dental prostheses with implant support, which is capable of overcoming the above mentioned drawbacks of the known art.
Within this aim, an object of the invention is to provide a device that makes it possible to easily mount on implants of conventional type, even if already applied to the patient, any prosthesis according to the most well- known systems of fixing between prosthesis and abutment.
Another object of the invention is to provide a device that makes it possible to easily position a prosthesis independently of the inclination of the implant in the bone of the patient.
A further important object of the invention is to provide a device which with a reduced number of components can offer technical characteristics that are not inferior to conventional implant technologies, and in fact brings together, in the same reduced number of components, the best peculiarities of the conventional systems.
Another object of the invention is to provide an apparatus for controlling the correct application of a device according to the invention.
Another object of the invention is to provide a device for installing in the oral cavity dental prostheses with implant support, as well as an apparatus for controlling the correct application of such device, which can both be made using conventional technologies.
This aim and these and other objects which will become better evident hereinafter are achieved by a device for installing in the oral cavity dental prostheses with implant support, which comprises:
- an abutment, constituted by a base portion from which a frustum- shaped portion protrudes which is either coaxial to said base portion or is inclined with respect to it, said abutment having a through hole on the axis
of said base portion for a primary screw for fixing to an implant body and an optional second hole, on the axis of said optional inclined frustum-shaped portion, for a secondary screw,
- a sealing and grip cap, which is shaped complementarily in order to be fitted onto said frustum-shaped portion and be retained thereon with snap-acting fixing means,
- a coupling side wall designed to be incorporated in a dental prosthesis and complementarily shaped in order to receive said cap and the underlying frustum-shaped portion of said abutment;
the coupling side wall is designed to be fixed to said cap and to said frustum-shaped portion by way of at least one selected from among the following means:
- snap-acting engagement means;
- means for fixing by way of a secondary screw;
- means for fixing by way of a lateral threaded element and a threaded bushing that is incorporated in the dental prosthesis.

The device 10 and 110 comprises a sealing and grip cap 21 and 121, which is shaped complementarily in order to be fitted onto the frustum- shaped portion 13 and 113, and be retained thereon with snap-acting fixing means, which are better described hereinbelow.
The device 10 and 110 also comprises a coupling side wall 22 and 122 which is designed to be incorporated in a dental prosthesis 23 and 123, see Figures 16 to 20, and complementarily shaped in order to receive the cap 21 and 121 together with the underlying frustum-shaped portion 13 and 113 of the abutment 11.
The coupling side wall 22 and 122 is designed to be fixed to the cap 21 and 121 and to the frustum-shaped portion 13 and 113 by way of at least one selected from among the following means:
- snap-acting engagement means, better described hereinbelow, - means for fixing by way of a secondary screw 20 and 120,
- means for fixing by way of a lateral threaded element 24 and a threaded bushing 25 that is incorporated in the dental prosthesis 23 and 123, described in more detail below.
In particular, the abutment 11 according to the invention is preferably made of pure titanium or an alloy thereof, for example Ti6A14V, which is capable of conferring a degree of hardness of 5 according to the ASTMA B 265 standard.
The base portion 12 can have a height comprised between 1 millimeter and 6 millimeters.
On the face 26 of the base portion 12 that is directed toward the implant body 17 there is a seat 27 for mating with the head of the implant body 17.
The seat 27 can be made so as to allow the use of the device 10 and 110 according to the invention on implant bodies 17 and 117 which are of conventional type and are already on the market.
The segment for transition from the base portion 12 to the frustum- shaped portion 13 has a frustum-shaped surface 27 the generatrix of which defines an angle 28 substantially of 30° with a plane 29 that is perpendicular to the axis 15 of the base portion 12; similarly, in the second embodiment of the device 110, the segment for transition from the base portion 112 to the
frustum-shaped portion 113 has a frustum- shaped surface 127 the generatrix of which defines an angle 128 substantially of 30° with a plane 129 that is perpendicular to the axis 119 of the second hole 118.
The angle 28 and 128 is understood to be comprised in a range between 1° and 35°, and preferably takes a value of 30°.
The generatrix of the frustum- shaped portion 13 and 113 defines an angle 30 and 130 with a line that is parallel to the axis 15 and 119, the value of which is 6°.
The angle 30 and 130 is understood to be comprised in a range between 4° and 6°, and preferably takes a value of 6°.
The device 110 has the frustum-shaped portion 113 inclined, with respect to the axis 115 of the base 112, at an angle 131 that can be selected from among a predefined number of different angles, for example 20° as in Figure 7, 30° as in Figure 8, and 40° as in Figure 9.
The frustum-shaped portion 13 and 113 has a circular perimetric groove 32 and 132 that is designed to receive by snap-acting engagement corresponding grip protrusions 33 that are defined so as to protrude from the inner surface of the cap 21 , such protrusions being clearly visible in Figures 11 and 12.
The sealing and grip cap 21 and 121, of which one cap 21 is shown in
Figures 10 to 12, the cap 121 being understood to be identical, is made of plastic material, for example of nylon.
The cap 21 is substantially shaped complementarily with respect to the frustum-shaped portion 13 and 113 of the abutment 11 and 111, and when it is fitted onto the corresponding frustum- shaped portion 13 or 113 the grip protrusions 33 are inserted in the groove 32 and 132 thus stabilizing the position of the cap with respect to the frustum-shaped portion.
The cap 21, as with 121, also has an outer lateral raised portion 34 for the first locking of the coupling side wall 22 and 122, thanks to the lateral hole 35 defined on the latter for the use of a lateral threaded element 24 with
a threaded bushing 25 that is incorporated in the dental prosthesis 23, described in more detail below.
The cap 21 has at least one centering raised portion, for example the centering raised portion 36 shaped like a circular arc in Figure 10, which protrudes in the direction of assembly of the side wall on the cap, and is designed to arrange itself in a corresponding complementarily shaped seat 37 defined inside the side wall 22.
In an equivalent variation of embodiment of the invention, not shown for the sake of simplicity, the cap has three centering raised portions, which are substantially cylindrical and adapted to arrange themselves in three complementarily shaped seats defined inside the side wall.
The sheath 21 can be made so as to have a different degree of hardness, according to the degree of friction and retention that is required of it between the abutment 11 and the side wall 22.
Advantageously for an operator, the cap 21 can be provided in different colors according to the degree of hardness.
The cap 21, and 121, has, at its lower edge 40, a step 41 that is adapted to define, with the frustum-shaped surface 27 of the base portion 12 of the abutment 11, a hollow 43 and 143, as in Figures 17 and 20, that is designed for engagement with a complementarily shaped inner annular raised portion 42 which is defined inside the side wall 22.
The coupling side wall 22 is substantially shaped complementarily with respect to the cap 21, and has perimetric protrusions 38, or perimetric grooves 39, for gripping the prostheses with which it is intended to be used.
Differently, but understood to be equivalent for the invention, the inner shape of the coupling side wall can be provided directly in the dental prosthesis, with CAD-CAM systems.
The coupling side wall 22 can be made of titanium, or a gold alloy, or of steel, or of rigid plastic material.
The primary screw 16 and 116 can vary in length and diameter
according to the implant body 17 or 117 for which it is destined; extending axially from its head, which has an inner cavity contoured for its screwing with corresponding instruments that are understood to be conventional, is the threaded seat for the secondary screw 20, which can be used to screw to the primary screw 16 in the first embodiment 10 of the device, in which the frustum-shaped portion 13 is coaxial to the base 12.
The snap-acting engagement means for the connection of the coupling side wall 22 and 122 with the cap 21 and 121 are thus comprised of the hollow 43 and 143, as in Figures 17 and 20, and of the complementarily shaped inner annular raised portion 42 which is defined inside the coupling side wall 22.
Alternatively, or simultaneously with the means of engagement by snap action described above, the coupling side wall, 22 and 122, and the abutment, 11 and 111, can be connected with means for fixing by way of a secondary screw 20 and 120, for a standard fixing with a screw introduced from an open hole on the chewing surface.
Also as an alternative, or simultaneously with the means of engagement by snap action described above, the coupling side wall, 22 and 122, and the abutment, 11 and 111, can be connected by way of a lateral threaded element 24, a grub screw or a micro-screw, and a threaded bushing 25 that is incorporated in the dental prosthesis 23 and 123, as in Figures 17 and 20.
In this last solution, the lateral threaded element 24, screwed, pushes against the outer protrusion 34 of the cap 21, firmly locking the side wall 22 to the frustum- shaped portion 13 of the abutment 11.
Such range of technical solutions for fixing the side wall to the abutment makes numerous fixing options, both permanent and temporary, available to the operator without such operator having to expend time and money in deciding which components to source, such components to be selected from the innumerable components available on the market, but
unlikely to be compatible if from different makers.
The invention also relates to an apparatus for controlling the correct application of such device, which is generally designated in Figures 21 to 24 with the reference numeral 45.
Such apparatus 45 comprises a bar 46 for supporting a plurality of articulated arms 47, 48 and 49, which can be moved parallel to a single plane 50, shown in Figure 22.
Each arm 47, 48 and 49 bears, at the free end, a through hole 51, 52 and 53 for a positioning pin 54, 55 and 56 that is adapted to support, fixed at the tip, an abutment 11 or 111 , as in Figures 25 and 26, to be positioned on an implant body.
The abutment 11 or 111 is supported by the positioning pin 54, 55 and 56 with the cooperation of a transfer element 57, 58 and 59, shaped complementarily with respect to the frustum-shaped portion 13 and 113 of the abutment 11 and 111.
The transfer element is locked between the positioning pin 54, 55 and 56 and the supported abutment 111, as in Figure 26, or between the positioning pin and a primary screw 16 which is associated with the abutment 11, as in Figure 25.
Figure 21 shows three articulated arms, but it should be understood that such arms can be two in number upwards, up to a preferable maximum of six.
For this reason the support bar 46 has six holes 60, 61 , 62, 63, 64 and 65 for fixing a corresponding pin 66, 67 and 68 with axis perpendicular to the plane 50.
Each pin can be fixed to the support bar 46 for example by way of an axial screw 69.
The articulated arms 47, 48 and 49 are shown by way of example as being composed of two portions, respectively 47a, 47b, 48a, 48b, 49a and 49b, but it should be understood that they can also be constituted by three or
more mutually pivoted portions.
The first portion, for example 47a, of each articulated arm has a first bush 70 for rotation and sliding with respect to the respective pin 66, 67, 68.
The first portion, for example 47a, and the second portion, for example 47b, are mutually pivoted by way of an intermediate bush 71 which is fixed, for example with an axial screw 72, to the first portion 47a and is coupled rotatably to a complementarily shaped annular portion 73 of the second portion 47b.
The through holes 51 , 52 and 53 for the positioning pins 54, 55 and 56 are flared with a total angle 74 of approximately 12° from both mouths of the hole.
The through holes 51 , 52 and 53, thus shaped, enable an easier but no less precise insertion of the positioning pins, as well as a gauged tolerance in their use for positioning the supported abutments.
The positioning pins 54, 55 and 56 have a shank 75 with a threaded end 76, the latter being shaped so as to screw directly into the second hole 118 of an abutment 111, as in Figure 26, or into the head of a primary screw 16, as in Figure 25.
The transfer element 57, 58 and 59 also has a threaded axial hole 77 that is such as to allow the passage, by screwing, of the threaded end 76 of the positioning pin, in order to then accommodate without play the shank 75 of the pin, so as to be locked stably and precisely between the shoulder 78 at the base of the shank and the head of the primary screw 16 or of the frustum-shaped portion 113 of the abutment 111.
Use of the apparatus 45 according to the invention is the following.
For a correct mounting of an abutment 11 or 111 on a predefined implant body 17 or 117 in the oral cavity of a patient, the abutments are temporarily mounted on the respective implant bodies, the positioning pins 54, 55 and 56 are each fixed to an abutment with transfer elements 57, 58 and 59 interposed, and subsequently the pins are inserted into the through
holes 51 , 52 and 53 of the articulated arms.
If the positioning pin does not slide inside the corresponding through hole, the abutment associated with the positioning pin is rotated until the pin is not free to slide in its corresponding through hole.
When the support bar 46 can freely perform a translational movement parallel to the positioning pins, then it means that all the abutments are positioned correctly and that it is possible to stabilize the locking thereof to the respective implant bodies, by way of screwing the primary screws.
In order to join the prostheses 23 or 123 with the abutment 11 or 111 directly in the oral cavity, the side wall 22 or 122 is positioned on the cap 21 or 121, with the snap upon the insertion of the inner annular raised portion
42 into the corresponding hollow 43 between the cap and the base portion
12 or 112 confirming its correct positioning.
By arranging a spacer disk of soft sealant plastic, of conventional type and not shown, at the base of the abutment and around the side wall, contact is prevented between the fixing materials and the gingival tissues, thus protecting the latter, and it is possible to test the dental prosthesis 23 or 123 in order to verify its correct operation, and it can be bonded to the side wall by using specific acrylic adhesives.
The retention of the prostheses occurs thanks to the mechanical friction between the inside of the side wall and the plastic cap fitted onto the frustum-shaped portion of the abutment.
If it is desired to stably fix the prostheses it is sufficient to remove the plastic cap and substitute it with adhesive cements.
If on the other hand a fixed, screwed prosthesis is desired, the operator can, after the side wall has been correctly locked to the prosthesis, fix the prosthesis by way of the lateral threaded element, or by way of adopting the secondary screw.
In practice it has been found that the invention fully achieves the intended aim and objects.
In particular, with the invention a device is provided that makes it possible to easily mount on implants of conventional type, even if already applied to the patient, any prosthesis according to the most well-known systems of fixing between prosthesis and abutment.
Furthermore, with the invention a device is provided that makes it possible to easily position a prosthesis independently of the inclination of the implant in the bone of the patient.
Furthermore, with the invention a device is provided which with a reduced number of components can offer technical characteristics that are not inferior to conventional implant technologies, and in fact brings together, in the same reduced number of components, the best peculiarities of the conventional systems.
Moreover, with the invention an apparatus is provided for controlling the correct application of a device according to the invention, which solves the problems of parallelism error between implants with multi-implant prostheses, such apparatus making it possible to use a single work protocol both for providing fixed prostheses, and for providing prostheses that can move, as well as being adaptable to all conventional types of implant bodies.
Last but not least, with the invention a device is provided for installing in the oral cavity dental prostheses with implant support, as well as an apparatus for controlling the correct application of such device, which can both be made using conventional technologies.
The invention, thus conceived, is susceptible of numerous modifications and variations, all of which are within the scope of the appended claims. Moreover, all the details may be substituted by other, technically equivalent elements.
In practice the materials employed, provided they are compatible with the specific use, and the contingent dimensions and shapes, may be any according to requirements and to the state of the art.
