Abstract
A wide vent dental implant adapted to be driven into the jaw bone of an individual and having a wide flat blade portion offering a large surface area for frictional retention in the jaw bone, and a head portion which remains exposed outside the jaw and provides a support for dental appliances of various types requiring an anchorage to the jaw bone. The bottom edge of the blade portion is sharpened to provide a cutting edge which incises the jaw bone as the wide vent is driven into place.
Claims8
A dental implant comprising at least one head portion, and at least one flat, thin blade portion connected to the head portion by a reduced neck portion, said blade portion having a sharpened bottom edge adapted to incise the jaw bone as the implant is driven into the bone by pressure applied to the head portion, said bottom edge being serrated.
A dental implant comprising at least one head portion, and at least one flat, thin blade portion connected to the head portion by a reduced neck portion, said blade portion having a sharpened bottom edge adapted to incise the jaw bone as the implant is driven into the bone by pressure applied to the head portion, said blade portion being substantially wider than it is long, said blade portion being symmetrical about a median line and having curved side margins extending outwardly and downwardly from said reduced neck to said bottom edge.
A dental implant comprising at least one head portion, and at least one flat, thin blade portion connected to the head portion by a reduced neck portion, said blade poriton having a sharpened bottom edge adapted to incise the jaw bone as the implant is driven into the bone by pressure applied to the head portion, said blade portion being symmetrical about a median line and has curved side margins extending outwardly and downwardly from said reduced neck to said bottom edge, and there being a pair of appertures symmetrically arranged on opposite sides of said median line and extending through said blade portion, said bottom edge being straight and uninterrupted throughout its length.
A dental implant comprising at least one head portion, and at least one flat, thin blade portion connected to the head portion by a reduced neck portion, said blade portion having a sharpened bottom edge adapted to incise the jaw bone as the implant is driven into the bone by pressure applied to the head portion, said implant having two head portions each connected to a single flat, thin blade portion by a pair of narrow neck portions.
A dental impant comprising at least one head portion, and at least one flat, thin blade portion connected to the head portion by a reduced neck portion, said blade portion having a sharpened bottom edge adapted to incise the jaw bone as the implant is driven into the bone by pressure applied to the head portion, said implant having a single head portion and four, thin, flat, blade portions connected to said head portion by a narrow neck, said four blade portions being spaced in series ninety degrees apart about a common line of intersection at which said blades are rigidly connected.
