Implant
The present disclosure relates to an implant, such as a dental implant, having a base member and a thread arranged at an outer end of the base member. The dental implant can be easily inserted and good footing of the implant in the bone can be achieved. Annular ridges and/or recesses can be formed in a section of the base member having no thread.
1. A dental implant anchorable in a jaw bone, the dental implant comprising:
an inner end region configured to enter the jaw bone first when said dental implant is inserted into the jaw bone, and an outer end region configured to face towards an oral cavity of a mouth when the dental implant is implanted in said jaw bone, wherein said outer end region includes an outermost end of said dental implant and said inner end region includes an innermost end of said dental implant, and an entire length of said dental implant is defined as the length between the outermost end and the innermost end along a longitudinal axis of said dental implant;
a bore hole;
a threaded region arranged at said outer end region of said dental implant, and said threaded region is apically in direct contact with said outermost end of said dental implant or a cylindrical region arranged at said outer end region and in direct contact with said outermost end; and
a non-threaded region arranged apical to said threaded region, said non-threaded region having annular ridges or annular recesses,
wherein a length of said threaded region corresponds to approximately one tenth of said entire length of said dental implant, said threaded region having multiple individual thread spirals, each of said multiple individual thread spirals has an entry arranged at a same axial position that is normal to the longitudinal axis of said dental implant, and wherein a length of each of said multiple individual thread spirals is less than a perimeter of said dental implant.
2. The dental implant according to claim 1 , wherein said annular ridges or said annular recesses are closed.
3. The dental implant according to claim 1 , wherein a section of said dental implant is formed as a sliding seat.
4. The dental implant according to claim 1 , wherein said annular ridges or said annular recesses are disposed on said inner end region of said dental implant.
5. The dental implant according to claim 1 , wherein said annular recesses are located adjacent to one another such that they form ridges.
6. The dental implant according to claim 1 , wherein said annular recesses are formed as annular grooves or concave indentations.
7. The dental implant according to claim 6 , comprising said concave indentations located on annular lines.
8. The dental implant according to claim 7 , wherein said concave indentations are arranged offset to one another on two adjacent annular lines.
9. The dental implant according to claim 1 , wherein said inner end region of said dental implant is rounded.
10. The dental implant according to claim 1 , made from ceramic, including zirconium oxide or aluminum oxide or a combination of both zirconium and aluminum oxide ceramics.
11. The dental implant according to claim 1 , wherein a surface of said dental implant comprises: microroughnesses.
12. The dental implant according to claim 1 , wherein said length of each of said multiple thread spirals is about one quarter of said perimeter of said dental implant.
13. The dental implant according to claim 2 , wherein a section of said dental implant is formed as a sliding seat.
14. The dental implant according to claim 13 , wherein said annular ridges or annular recesses are disposed on said inner end region of said dental implant.
15. The dental implant according to claim 14 , wherein said inner end region of said dental implant is rounded.
16. The dental implant according to claim 15 , made from ceramic, including zirconium oxide or aluminum oxide or a combination of both zirconium and aluminum oxide ceramics.
17. The dental implant according to claim 16 , wherein a surface of said dental implant comprises: microroughnesses.
