Abutment Hammering Tool for Dental Implants

Mechanical Engineering Design Education: Issues and Case Studies, 2001
Abstract One method for installing dental prosthetics uses components fastened with a tapered interference fit. An abutment is fastened into an implant to provide an anchor for the prosthesis. The current method of installation involves hammering with a dental mallet, which provides inconsistent force.

Influence of implant/abutment joint designs on abutment screw loosening in a dental implant system

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B: Applied Biomaterials, 2005
AbstractThe objective of this study was to investigate the influence of implant/abutment joint designs on abutment screw loosening in a dental implant system, using nonlinear dynamic analysis of the finite element method (FEM). This finite element simulation study used two dental implant systems: the Ankylos implant system (Degusa Dental, Hanau, German)

Antibacterial effect of doxycycline-coated dental abutment surfaces

Biomedical Materials, 2015
Biofilm formation on dental abutment may lead to peri-implant mucositis and subsequent peri-implantitis. These cases are clinically treated with antibiotics such as doxycycline (Doxy). Here we used an electrochemical method of cathodic polarization to coat Doxy onto the outer surface of a dental abutment material. The Doxy-coated surface showed a burst

The Procera abutment--the fifth generation abutment for dental implants.

Journal (Canadian Dental Association), 2000
The Brånemark dental implant has undergone progressive development in terms of both the implant body itself and the components connecting the implant to the prosthesis. Many screw and abutment designs have been developed, with various degrees of success.

Should Healing Abutments and Cover Screws for Dental Implants be Reused? A Systematic Review.

Journal of Prosthodontics, 2019
PURPOSE To systematically review the current scientific evidence to assess if healing abutments and cover screws for dental implants can be re-sterilized effectively for reuse. A secondary purpose was to investigate if there has been any reported adverse

Clinical performance of cantilevered fixed dental prostheses abutments in the shortened dental arch

Journal of Dentistry, 2014
This article is part of a randomized clinical trial on different treatments in the shortened dental arch (SDA). It focused on the abutment tooth prognosis with cantilevered fixed dental prostheses (CFDPs).Sixty-two patients with a bilaterally SDA up to the first or second premolar in the mandible or maxilla were evaluated.

Contemporary Advances in Dental Implant Abutments

Journal of Oral and Dental Care
Since the introduction of dental implants, implant designs have continuously evolved to meet both mechanical and biological requirements. Macro- and micro-design parameters, including implant length, diameter, body shape, and surface characteristics, directly influence intraoral success and prognosis.

[Dental implant restoration abutment selection].

Hua xi kou qiang yi xue za zhi = Huaxi kouqiang yixue zazhi = West China journal of stomatology, 2017
An increasing number of implant restoration abutment types are produced with the rapid development of dental implantology. Although various abutments can meet different clinical demands, the selection of the appropriate abutment is both difficult and confusing.

A Study on Screw Loosening in Dental Implant Abutment

Critical Reviews in Biomedical Engineering
Dental implants are integral in replacing missing teeth, providing durability and natural aesthetics through osseointegration-a process where the implant fuses with the jawbone to support a prosthesis. However, screw loosening presents significant challenges, potentially leading to implant failure, bone loss, and peri-implantitis.

CAD-CAM custom healing abutments: A dental technique

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry
Custom healing abutments are important in establishing optimal esthetics for prosthesis-driven, implant-supported restorations. This report demonstrates a technique for constructing a custom healing abutment with computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing to save chairside time and provide predictable results.
