A screw-type dental implant anchor includes an externally-threaded body portion having internal structure for engaging an insertion tool. The body portion can be joined to a top portion having an unthreaded exterior wall. This internal is inside a top portion or inside the body portion of the anchor. The top portion is open, preferably chamfered at its upper end, and in registration with an internally-threaded shaft inside the body portion of the anchor that extends from a plane just below the head portion downwardly a substantial distance inside the body portion. The distal end of the anchor includes a through hole extending from one side of the body portion to the other, and an opening at the bottom of the body portion extending upwardly inside the body portion a distance sufficient to permit bone and associated tissue to grow into and through these openings and to permit blood tissue to escape.
A screw-type dental implant anchoring means comprises an externally-threaded body portion joined to a top portion having an unthreaded exterior wall, said implant having an internal, wrench-engaging surface, and an internally-threaded shaft extending downwardly from said top portion into said body portion, said top portion having an outer circumference substantially no greater than the circumference of the externally-threaded body portion, said internal, wrench-engaging surface lying substantially entirely within said shaft, inside said body portion, substantially entirely within the exterior walls of said anchoring means, and substantially entirely below the upper surface of said anchoring means.
A dental implant anchoring means comprising an externally-threaded body portion, and an internally-threaded shaft extending longitudinally into said body portion, said implant having internal, wrench-engaging implant insertion means lying substantially entirely within said shaft, substantially entirely inside said body portion, and substantially entirely below the upper surface of said anchoring means.
A dental implant anchoring means comprising a body portion having threads on part of the external wall surface of the body portion, an internally-threaded shaft extending longitudinally into said body portion, a vent means on another, hollow part of the external wall surface of the body portion, and internal, wrench-engaging means lying substantially entirely inside said shaft, substantially entirely within the exterior walls of said anchoring means, and substantially entirely below the top surface of said anchoring means, for inserting said implant into an opening formed in the tissue.
A screw-type dental implant anchoring means comprising an externally-threaded body portion joined to a top portion having an unthreaded exterior wall, and an internally-threaded shaft inside said body portion, said implant having an internal, wrench-engaging surface lying substantially entirely inside said shaft, substantially entirely within the exterior walls of said anchoring means, substantially entirely below the upper surface of said anchoring means, and inside said body portion for engaging implant insertion wrench means, said top portion being adapted to receive prosthetic connecting means for insertion into the upper surface of said implant anchoring means that forms a smooth, easily cleaned margin with said anchoring means upon insertion into said upper surface.
A dental implant anchoring means comprising an externally-threaded body portion, and and internally threaded shift inside said body portion, said implant having internal, wrench-engaging means lying substantially entirely inside said shaft, substantially entirely within the exterior walls of said anchoring means, substantially entirely below the top surface of said anchoring means and inside said body portion for engaging implant insertion wrench means, said anchoring means being adapted to receive prosthetic connecting means that includes post means that fit into said internally-threaded shaft and that form a smooth, easily cleaned margin with said anchoring means upon said insertion into said upper surface.
A dental implant anchoring means comprising an externally-threaded body portion joined to a top portion having an unthreaded exterior wall, and an internally-threaded shaft inside said body portion, said implant having internal, wrench-engaging means lying substantially entirely inside said shaft, substantially entirely within the exterior walls of said anchoring means, substantially entirely below the top surface of said anchoring means and inside said body portion for engaging implant insertion wrench means, said top portion being adapted to receive prosthetic connecting means that forms a smooth, easily cleaned margin with said anchoring means upon insertion into said upper surface.
A dental implant anchoring means comprising a top portion joined to a body portion, said body portion having threads on part of the external wall surface of the body portion, a vent means on another, hollow part of the external wall surface of the body portion, and an internally-threaded shaft inside said body portion, and internal, wrench-engaging means lying substantially entirely inside said shaft, substantially entirely within the exterior walls of said anchoring means, substantially entirely below the top surface of said anchoring means, and inside said body portion for engaging wrench means for inserting said implant into an opening formed in jawbone tissue, said top portion being adapted to receive prosthetic connecting means, said prosthetic connecting means when placed in said internally-threaded shaft forming a smooth, easily cleaned margin with said anchoring means upon insertion into said upper surface.
A dental implant anchoring means comprising a body portion, an internally-threaded shaft extending downwardly from the top of said dental implant anchoring means into said body portion, and an internal, wrench-engaging surface lying substantially entirely within said shaft, substantially entirely within the exterior walls of said anchoring means , and substantially entirely below the top surface of said anchoring means.
A dental implant anchoring means comprising an externally-threaded body portion, and an internally-threaded shaft extending downwardly from the top of said implant anchoring means inside said body portion, said implant having an internal, wrench-engaging surface lying substantially entirely inside said shaft, substantially entirely within the exterior walls of said anchoring means, and lying substantially entirely below the top surface of said anchoring means, said shaft being adapted to receive prosthetic connecting means that forms a smooth, easily-cleaned margin with said anchoring means upon insertion into said shaft, said shaft including near the opening at the top of said shaft, a chamfered interior wall surface adapted to receive, engage and support said prosthetic connecting means.
A dental implant anchoring means comprising a body portion, and an internally-threaded shaft extending downwardly from the top of said implant anchoring means inside said body portion, said implant having an internal, wrench-engaging surface lying substantially entirely inside said shaft, substantially entirely within the exterior walls of said anchoring means, and substantially entirely below the top surface of said anchoring means, said shaft being adapted to receive prosthetic connecting means that forms a smooth, easily-cleaned margin with said anchoring means upon insertion into said shaft, said shaft including near the opening at the top of said shaft, a chamfered interior wall surface adapted to receive, engage and support said prosthetic connecting means.
