Abstract
A dental implant that facilitate insertion and can be used in all bone types. The implant includes a body having a coronal end, and an apical end opposite the coronal end. A tapered region may be adjacent the apical end. On the apical part one or more taps are provided so the tap is cutting when rotating clockwise and counter-clockwise. The implant can have at least one variable profile helical thread that extends along the tapered region. The implant can have also micro-threads below the main threads, a gradual compressing tapered core, a self drilling apical end and a narrow coronal region.
Claims18
A dental implant comprising:
- a coronal part and an apical part;
- said apical part comprising a core with at least one external thread extending along said core,
- wherein said apical part has a first tap and a second tap extending along said apical part and crossing said at least one external thread,
- wherein said first tap when viewed from a first side elevation view perspective, in which said coronal part being above said apical part, has a right side of said first tap and a left side of said first tap that both extend from an external surface of said apical part towards the inside of said apical part,
- said right side of said first tap forms a right edge of said first tap with said external surface of said apical part,
- said left side of said first tap forms a left edge of said first tap with said external surface of said apical part,
- wherein said second tap when viewed from a second side elevation view perspective, in which said coronal part being above said apical part, has a right side of said second tap and a left side of said second tap that both extend from said external surface of said apical part towards the inside of said apical part,
- said right side of said second tap forms a right edge of said second tap with said external surface of said apical part,
- said left side of said second tap forms a left edge of said second tap with said external surface of said apical part,
- wherein said right edge of said first tap has in a first cross-sectional view, which is perpendicular to a central longitudinal axis of said implant, an angle of less than 90 degrees between said right side of said first tap forming said right edge of said first tap and said external surface of said apical part,
- said left edge of said first tap has in said first cross-sectional view an angle of more than 90 degrees between said left side of said first tap forming said left edge of said first tap and said external surface of said apical part,
- said right edge of said second tap has in a second cross-sectional view, which is perpendicular to said central longitudinal axis, an angle of more than 90 degrees between said right side of said second tap forming said right edge of said second tap and said external surface of said apical part,
- said left edge of said second tap has in said second cross-sectional view an angle of less than 90 degrees between said left side of said second tap forming said left edge of said second tap and said external surface of said apical part.
A dental implant comprising:
- a coronal part and an apical part;
- said apical part comprising a core with at least one external thread extending along said core,
- wherein said apical part has a first tap and a second tap that both extend along said apical part and crossing said at least one external thread,
- wherein at least part of said first tap when viewed from a first side elevation view perspective, in which said coronal part being above said apical part, has a right side of said first tap and a left side of said first tap that both extend from an external surface of said apical part towards the inside of said apical part,
- at least part of said second tap when viewed from a second side elevation view perspective opposed to said first side elevation view, in which said coronal part being above said apical part, has a right side of said second tap and a left side of said second tap that both extend from said external surface of said apical part towards the inside of said apical part,
- each of said sides of said taps forms an edge of said taps with said external surface of said apical part, wherein each of said edges has in a first cross-sectional view, which is perpendicular to a central longitudinal axis of said implant, angles of less than 90 degrees between each of said sides of said taps forming said edges of said taps and said external surface of said apical per,
- each of said edges has in a second cross-sectional view, which is perpendicular to said central longitudinal axis, angles of more than 90 degrees between each of said sides of said taps forming said edges of said taps and said external surface of said apical part.
