Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a medical device for use in the dental field.
  • Such medical devices in particular dental implants, are preferably made of metals such as titanium and titanium alloy. In the hydroxylated and hydrophilic state such materials can provide an excellent osseointegration .
  • a ceramic sleeve as a separate structural part almost unavoidably results in a micro-gap, which can cause bacterial contamination.
  • a sleeve can be fitted by sintering.
  • high temperatures have to be used for the sintering process, which can cause a partial oxidation of the metallic body of the implant. This has a disadvantageous effect on osseointegration.
  • different coefficients of thermal expansion of the materials involved can, particularly during cooling, result in the development of microstress, which can lead to hairline fractures and cracks.
  • Coatings with silicate glass and with silicate-glass- modified ceramics are also known, for example from document WO 01/74730.
  • a disadvantage of these is, once again, the possibility of microstress occurring as a result of the firing process at high temperatures and the at least partial oxidation of the titanium surface.
  • the color of all said coatings and sleeves cannot be influenced to the desired extent, resulting in a negative visual impression.
  • US 6 019 600 discloses an autoclavable, abrasion resistant dental mirror comprising a holder and a mirror element mounted in the holder.
  • the mirror element comprises a sapphire body, an optically reflective aluminum layer on the rear surface of the sapphire body, and a protective layer on the reflective layer.
  • DE 200 13 791 discloses a highly reflective dental mirror. The problem of the invention is therefore to provide a medical device which combines the excellent mechanical properties of the metals, especially of titanium, with the good esthetic properties of highly reflecting coatings.
  • the problem of the present invention is to provide a medical device for the restoration, replacement or correction of teeth which combines the excellent mechanical properties of the metals, especially of titanium, with the good esthetic properties of highly reflecting coatings.
  • This problem is solved with a medical device according to claim 1 and a method for preparing such a medical device according to claim 14. Further preferred embodiments are defined by the dependent claims.
  • the problem is solved with a medical device for use in the dental field made of titanium, zirconium, niobium, hafnium, tantalum, vanadium, aluminum, steel or alloys thereof, wherein the surface of said medical device is at least partially coated with a highly reflecting interlayer and said interlayer is coated with a protective layer, characterized in that the interlayer is a metal film selected from the group of silver, aluminum, rhodium, gold, palladium, platinum, titanium, zirconium as well as alloys and mixtures thereof, and the protective layer comprises a transparent ceramic material selected from the group of silica (Si0 2 ) , silicon nitride (Si x N y , wherein x is from 1 to 4 and y is from 1 to 8), alumina (AI2O3) , aluminum nitride (A1N) , zirconia (Zr0 2 ), titania (Ti0 2 ) , and mixtures thereof.
  • the medical device according to the present invention is for use in the dental field, and in particular, for use in the visible front part of the mouth.
  • the medical device is made of titanium, zirconium, niobium, hafnium, tantalum, vanadium, aluminum, steel or alloys thereof. Titanium or a titanium alloy is a preferred material. In case of titanium alloys in particular alloys are preferred in which zirconium, niobium, tantalum, vanadium and/or hafnium have been added. A most preferred alloy is a titanium/zirconium alloy; an example of which is Roxolid ® . Titanium and titanium alloys are biocompatible and have excellent corrosion resistance in body fluids.
  • the surface of said medical device is at least partially coated with a highly reflecting interlayer and said interlayer is continuously coated with a protective layer.

  • transparent ceramic stands for a ceramic having an absorption coefficient k of the complex index of refraction which is 0 or very small. Therefore, only a small part of the light gets absorbed in the material.
  • the desired color can be achieved. I.e., depending on the retardation of the protective layer, the visual appearance of the medical device will be for example pink, yellow or whitish. Furthermore, it protects the reflecting interlayer from scratches, which could negatively influence the optical appearance .
  • the medical device according to the present invention has excellent esthetic characteristics, since it provides a color that resembles teeth or soft tissue due to the presence of the highly reflecting interlayer and the protective layer. The mechanical integrity is very good because, for example, the strain at cracking is higher than 0.5% which corresponds to the elastic limit of titanium, i.e.

Furthermore, such a protective layer has a high fracture toughness .
  • the ceramic material of the protective layer is stabilized with yttria (Y 2 0 3 ) , preferably ytteria-stabilized zirconia.

  • the retardation corresponds to the optical path difference between two light rays reflected at the air-protecting layer interface and reflected at the protective layer- reflecting interlayer interface , i.e. one is reflected at the upper interface (directed away from the medical device) and the other one at the lower interface (directed to the medical device) .
  • the desired color of the device is pink
  • a retardation of about 450 to 600 nm results in a whitish color of the medical device, whereas a retardation of about 600 to 725 nm results in a yellow color and a retardation of about 725 to 850 nm results in a pink color of the medical device .
