Abstract
A helical dental implant has a multi-turn thread around the periphery of the implant body, the thread turns of which body have a variable depth which varies continuously around the periphery of the implant body. The depth of the thread turns runs around the periphery of the implant body in an undulating manner at least once from a minimum depth to a maximum depth, and from there back to a minimum depth. The profile of the thread turns is adapted in its dimension to the size of the osteons of the jaw bone fixed to the implant surface. The implant body has a profiled implant head, a cylindrical thread section and a conical thread section which is designed as self-tapping.
Claims19
A dental implant with an implant body which has at least over a part of its periphery a cylindrical shape and which has at its periphery a screw threat to allow implanting by screwing the implant body into an opening of the jaw bone, the screw threat comprises a fine pitch thread of at least one single thread turn, the thread turn comprising along its length a variable depth which continuously runs between portions of small depth and portions of greater depth.
A dental implant with an implant body which has at least over a part of its periphery a cylindrical shape and which has at its periphery a screw thread to allow implanting by screwing the implant body into an opening of the jaw bone, the screw threat is a multiple threat of fine pitch, each one of the multiple thread comprising along its length over the implant body a variable depth which continuously runs between regions of small depth and regions of greater depth.
A dental implant with an implant body having a cylindrical section which is provided at its periphery with a fine pitch thread of at least one single thread turn comprising along its length over the implant body a variable depth which continuously runs between regions of small depth and regions of greater depth;
- the implant body comprising a conical thread section which is connected to the cylindrical threaded section in apical direction and which is designed to be self-tapping;
- and the implant body further comprising a conical transition section which is connected to the cylindrical threaded section in crestal direction and into which the at least one single thread turn runs out and which forms the transition to an implant head.
