摘要:
A process for preparing one of a patient's upper and lower jaw for a full arch teeth replacement may include extracting every tooth in a patient's arch to define a corresponding number of post-extraction root sockets, wherein each tooth is extracted atraumatically to substantially maintain the patient's original alveolar bone and original keratinized gingiva, waiting a period of time to allow for tissue healing and substantial osteoblast/osteoclasts interaction and remodeling such that newly ossifying bone fills space in each of the post-extraction root sockets, installing a plurality of socket-sized implants less than the number of post-extraction root sockets into corresponding post-extraction root sockets, and allowing for osseointegration of each of the socket-sized implants into the newly ossifying bone of the corresponding post-extraction root sockets.

Digitally designing artificial teeth for use in a dental prosthesis and/or dental restoration. Designing natural-looking functional artificial teeth based on computer-aided design using reference dentition articulated in a predetermined occlusal scheme as a basis for effective design. In particular, the occlusal surfaces of posterior artificial teeth are designed in a digital environment to provide effective consistent functional set-up and performance, especially across a variety of occlusal schemes, in the preparation of dental prostheses.

A set of artificial teeth for a denture comprises a maxillary unit and a mandibular unit. When set up in lingualised occlusion or balanced occlusion, at least one of following occurs: the palatal cusp (1a) of the maxillary posterior tooth (7a) fits into the distal fossa (1b) of the mandibular posterior tooth (8a); the palatal cusp (2a) of the maxillary posterior tooth (7b) fits into the distal fossa (2b) of the mandibular posterior tooth (8b); the mesial palatal cusp (3a) of the maxillary posterior tooth (7c) fits into the central fossa (3b) of the mandibular posterior tooth (8c); the distal palatal cusp (4a) of the maxillary posterior tooth (7c) fits onto the marginal ridge (4b) of the mandibular posterior tooth (8c); and the mesial palatal cusp (5a) of the maxillary posterior tooth (7d) fits into the central fossa (5b) of the mandibular posterior tooth (8d).

The invention provides a dentition movement track indicator and a tracing method. The device includes an intra-oral fixation assembly and an extra-oral movement indicating assembly, wherein the intra-oral fixation assembly includes a lower denture base, a left side retention steel wire, a right side retention steel wire and a positioning steel wire. The lower denture base is arranged on the lingual side of the lower dentition and respectively extends from a lower incisor to the far center of the last tooth on the left side and the right side and clings to the lingual mucous membrane. The left side retention steel wire and the right side retention steel wire are distributed in a left-right symmetry mode. The extra-oral movement indicating assembly includes a connecting rod, an arc rod, an indicating plate and a plurality of rectangular parallelepiped thin rods. According to the dentition movement track indicator, an intra-oral fixation assembly.

A set of artificial teeth for a denture comprises a maxillary unit and a mandibular unit. When set up in lingualised occlusion, at least one of following occurs: the palatal cusp of the upper 4 (1) fits into the distal fossa of the lower 4 (6), the palatal cusp of the upper 5 (2) fits into the distal fossa of the lower 5 (7), the mesial palatal cusp of the upper 6 (3) fits into the central fossa of the lower 6 (8), the distal palatal cusp of the upper 6 (4) fits onto the marginal ridge of the lower 6 (9) and the mesial palatal cusp of the upper 7 (5) fits into the central fossa of the lower 7 (10). The buccal cusps of the lower teeth are out of contact with the upper teeth, such that the cusp/fossa dimensions and relationships of the teeth concerned enable the occlusal scheme for the teeth to be changed from lingualised to balanced occlusion simply by softening the wax or resin under the upper posterior teeth and rotating the upper buccal cusps downwards around the said palatal cusps on the upper teeth with such palatal cusps still substantially remaining within the centric stops of the lowers.

A dental prosthetic device and a method for its fabrication are disclosed. The method is applicable for metalloceramics or metalloplastics permanent dentures based on a light metal openwork frame strengthened by multiple layers of ceramic or plastic custom coating.
摘要:
Occlusal contact between upper and lower virtual three-dimensional teeth of a patient when the upper and lower arches are in an occlused condition are determined and displayed to the user on a user interface of a general purpose computing device. Various techniques for determining occlusal contacts are described. The areas where occlusal contact occurs is displayed on the user interface in a readily perceptible manner, such as by showing the occlusal contacts in green. If the proposed set-up would result in a interpenetration of teeth in opposing arches, such locations of interpenetration are illustrated in a contrasting color or shading (e.g., red). The ability to calculate distances and display occlusal contacts in a proposed set-up assists the user in planning treatment for the patient. The process can be extended to interproximal contact detection as well. The concepts also apply to dental prosthetics, such as crowns, fillings and dentures.
摘要:
A dental restoration is provided which includes a base structure and a pre-fabricated over structure which at least partially covers the base structure. An interconnecting material interconnects hardened bite elements of the over structure with the base structure. In accordance with the method of producing a dental restoration, the interconnecting material applied onto the base structure is hardened fully after the over structure has first been applied onto the still malleable interconnecting material.
