Title: Bone-bonded artificial tooth structure

Description:
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION 
     This application claims the priority benefit of Taiwan application serial no. 108146775, filed on Dec. 19, 2019. The entirety of the above-mentioned patent application is hereby incorporated by reference herein and made a part of this specification. 
     FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
     The present invention relates to an artificial tooth structure that can be customized for different patients, and more particularly, to a bone-bonded artificial tooth structure that can be securely fixed to an atrophied alveolar bone. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     In the past, removable dentures or fixed dental crowns and gum were used to treat a patient&#39;s miss teeth, particularly when a large number of teeth are missing. Recently, with the introduction of the tooth implant techniques into the prosthodontic field, the patient with missing teeth now may choose to get single or multiple teeth implant or even a full-mouth dental implant. 
     For a patient having a healthy alveolar bone, dental implant is usually used to replace one or more missing teeth. In the dental implant, an implant is placed into the alveolar bone of the patient&#39;s upper or lower jawbone, so that the implant forms an artificial tooth root under the patient&#39;s gum. The shape, size and type of the implant are selected according to the state at the missing tooth, and the placement of the implant is performed with different surgical instruments and different surgical operations. After the artificial tooth root is completed, an artificial dental crown is fixedly mounted on the artificial tooth root, so that it is firmly supported on the alveolar bone by the artificial tooth root. 
     However, for a patient having a badly atrophied alveolar bone, i.e. with an almost completely resorbed alveolar bone and even a severely resorbed basal bone, it is impossible to place the implant into the atrophied alveolar bone. In this case, the patient generally needs to reconstruct the atrophied alveolar bone with an artificial alveolar bone and the implant is then placed into the artificial alveolar bone in subsequent procedures. However, this type of alveolar bone reconstruction through bone augmentation involves complicated surgical procedures and requires a relatively long time to complete, and could not be performed in the case of a special oral cavity condition that requires customized treatments. 
     Besides, the placement direction and the placement location of the implants are very important in missing tooth treatment. Inaccurately placed implants would result in misaligned upper and lower jaws and tend to separate from the alveolar bone easily. Therefore, a complete pre-treatment plan and a precise bone drilling for the implant during the surgical operation are important factors for increasing the successful rate of dental implant treatment. 
     However, both of the above two factors depend on a dentist&#39;s or an oral surgeon&#39;s clinical experiences and surgical skills. In the event the alveolar bone is not drilled with sufficient stability or the oral cavity vision in three-dimensional space is not well controlled, it is possibly to damage the facial nerve or cause bony crack of the alveolar bone. 
     Further, since the implant is made of a metal material that is obviously different from the alveolar bone tissue, these two components are not easily tightly bonded to each other. When the artificial tooth roots are fixedly placed, the patient has to wait for additional three to six months for the osseointegration until the alveolar bone cells regenerate and the augmented alveolar bone is bonded to the gaps between the threads on the artificial implant. 
     In view of the drawbacks in the conventional dental implant treatments that the placement of the implant and the reconstruction of the alveolar bone all require a relatively long time to complete the whole surgical procedures, that the successful rate of dental implant depends on the dentist&#39;s and the surgeon&#39;s clinical experiences, and that the artificial implant could not be applied to all kinds of missing teeth, it is therefore tried by the inventor to develop an improved artificial tooth structure to overcome the disadvantages of the conventional missing teeth treatments. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     A primary object of the present invention is to provide an improved artificial tooth structure, which can be fixed to a patient&#39;s alveolar bone to provide an immediate supporting strength sufficient for resisting a bite force when chewing food, allowing the patient to eat foods requiring chewing immediately after the tooth implant without needing to wait for the osseointegration of the alveolar bone with the implant. Therefore, the inconvenience brought by the conventional artificial tooth implant due to the long time needed for the occurrence of osseointegration can be eliminated. 
     Another object of the present invention is to provide an improved artificial tooth structure that can be implanted to alveolar bones in various states of atrophies, and can be applied to teeth at different oral locations and having different alveolar bone shapes, including incisors, canines, premolars and molars. Therefore, the present invention largely increases the scope of application of the artificial tooth by overcoming the disadvantage of the conventional tooth implant that the cylindrical implant could not be mounted on an alveolar bone having a relatively small contact area surface and accordingly providing insufficient supporting strength. 
     A further object of the present invention is to provide an improved artificial tooth structure that can be applied to a patient having misaligned teeth or malocclusion by designing an inclined tooth portion for the artificial tooth structure to match inclined original teeth, so that the artificial tooth is aligned with the inclined original teeth to achieve good occlusion, biting and chewing. 
     A still further object of the present invention is to provide an improved bone-bonded artificial tooth structure that has a base portion, a dental anchors and a tooth portion fabricated using biocompatible biomedical materials, such as zirconium dioxide and titanium alloys, and can be directly installed without the need of using other additional novel materials to meet specific using conditions, allowing a dentist or a oral surgeon to perform the tooth implant efficiently. 
     To achieve the above and other objects, the bone-bonded artificial tooth structure according to the present invention is designed for fixing to a patient&#39;s alveolar bone that is partially atrophied to form a narrowed bone top, and includes a base portion, a tooth portion and a dental anchor. 
     The base portion includes a lower connecting section, being located lower than a highest point of the narrowed bone top, and an upper connecting section, being located higher than the highest point of the narrowed bone top. The lower connecting section is in contact with an outer side surface of the narrowed bone top, so that the lower connecting section and the narrowed bone top together form a locked part that has a thickness larger than that of the narrowed bone top. One side of the upper connecting section facing away from the highest point of the narrowed bone top forms a connecting surface. The tooth portion is fixed to the connecting surface of the base portion. The dental anchor has a partial length being inserted into the narrowed bone top and being defined as a first anchoring section; and other remaining length of the dental anchor is contacted with the base portion and defined as a second anchoring section, such that the base portion is restricted by the dental anchor from displacing relative to the narrowed bone top. 
     On side of the upper connecting section opposed to the connecting surface is defined as a bottom side, the bottom side has a partial area being formed at the lower connecting section, and other remaining area of the bottom side is defined as a pressing surface, the pressing surface is in contact with the highest point of the narrowed bone top. Further, the lower connecting section has a three-dimensional surface completely corresponding to a configuration of a side wall surface of the narrowed bone top, allowing the lower connecting section to fitly and tightly contact with the narrowed bone top. 
     In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the lower connecting section is formed of a single independent connecting body, the single independent connecting body is located to one side of the pressing surface, such that the narrowed bone top has one side in contact with the independent connecting body; and another side of the narrowed bone top farther away from the independent connecting body is in contact with the gum that covers the alveolar bone. Further, the bone-bonded artificial tooth structure includes an auxiliary anchor being inserted into the locked part. The dental anchor and the auxiliary anchor can both be inserted from the lower connecting section into the narrowed bone top. Alternatively, the dental anchor is inserted from the lower connecting section into the narrowed bone top while the auxiliary anchor is inserted from the narrowed bone top into the lower connecting section. 
     In the above embodiment, the dental anchor is inserted into the locked part in a direction parallel to the direction in which the auxiliary anchor is inserted into the locked part; and the dental anchor is vertically spaced from the auxiliary anchor. 
     In another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the lower connecting section includes a first lower connecting body and a second lower connecting body spaced from the first lower connecting body. The first lower connecting body and the second lower connecting body are separately located at two opposite sides of the pressing surface of the upper connecting section, so that the narrowed bone top is located between the first lower connecting body and the second lower connecting body. 
     In the above embodiment, the dental anchor is inserted through the first lower connecting body and the narrowed bone top into the second lower connecting body sequentially. In the case of including the auxiliary anchor that is inserted into the locked part, the dental anchor is inserted from the first lower connecting body into the narrowed bone top, while the auxiliary anchor is inserted from the second lower connecting body into the narrowed bone top. 
     In the above embodiment, the dental anchor and the auxiliary anchor are inserted into the locked part in two oblique directions, and the dental anchor has a partial length extended beyond the auxiliary anchor. That is, the dental anchor and the auxiliary anchor obliquely cross each other. 
     In the above two embodiments, the tooth portion includes an abutment and a crown. The abutment has a first end and an opposite second end. The first end is connected to the connecting surface and adjoining to the gum covering the alveolar bone; and the second end is connected to the crown. 
     Moreover, the tooth portion further includes a fastening screw and a locating element. The fastening screw is threaded through the abutment into the base portion, so as to firmly connect the abutment to the base portion. The crown is covered on a top of the fastening screw. The locating element is threaded through the crown into the abutment. 
     Further, the second end of the abutment can be so configured that it is inclined relative to the second end of the abutment; and the base portion and the tooth portion can be integrally formed using the same material. The lower connecting section can be so configured to have a vertical section and a horizontal section located at a lower end of the vertical section, so that the lower connecting section is in a T-shaped configuration. In this case, the second anchoring section of the dental anchor can be abutted on an upper side or a lower side of the horizontal section. 
     The bone-bonded artificial tooth structure of the present invention is characterized in that the base portion is customized to have different shapes corresponding to the configurations of the atrophied alveolar bone, and differently shaped base portion is fixed to the atrophied alveolar bone using dental anchor. As soon as the base portion is fixed to the atrophied alveolar bone using the dental anchor, the whole artificial tooth can immediately provide good supporting strength sufficient to resist the bite force during chewing foods, allowing the patient to eat foods requiring chewing immediately after the dental implant without the need of waiting for the osseointegration of the alveolar bone with the base portion. Therefore, the inconvenience brought by the conventional artificial tooth implant due to the long time needed for the occurrence of osseointegration can be eliminated.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS 
     The present invention will now be described with some preferred embodiments and by referring to the accompanying drawings. For the purpose of easy to understand, elements that are the same in the preferred embodiments are denoted by the same reference numerals. 
     Please refer to  FIG. 1 . When a patient wants to have a bone-bonded artificial tooth structure  30  to replace a missing tooth in his/her oral cavity, a dentist will first cut open the patient&#39;s gum  10  around the missing tooth to expose a part of the patient&#39;s alveolar bone  20  that is initially covered by the gum  10  and then implants the bone-bonded artificial tooth structure  30  into the exposed alveolar bone  20 . Bone atrophy tends to occur gradually at the alveolar bone  20  when the tooth is missing for a long time without replacing it with an artificial tooth or placing a dental implant. As can be seen in the drawing, the atrophied alveolar bone  20  will finally form a narrowed top portion that has a thickness smaller than that of the initial alveolar bone  20 . The narrowed top portion of the alveolar bone  20 , briefly referred to as the narrowed bone top and denoted by reference numeral  21  herein, is substantially in a conical shape having a gradually downward expanded configuration. 
     The bone-bonded artificial tooth structure  30  can be preferably formed in three different manners. In the first manner, a three-dimensional (3D) file is output from a computer tomography (CT) scanning of the patient&#39;s alveolar bone  20  at the missing tooth and an artificial tooth model is created from the 3D file using 3D printing. In the second manner, the gum  10  is cut open and the patient&#39;s oral cavity is scanned to obtain a 3D file, and then an artificial tooth model is created using 3D printing. In the third manner, the gum  10  is cut open and a dental impression is made using an impression material, and then an artificial tooth model is made using gypsum or other appropriate materials based on the dental impression. 
     In the first embodiment as shown in  FIG. 1 , the bone-bonded artificial tooth structure  30  includes a base portion  31 , a tooth portion  32  and a dental anchor  33 . The base portion  31  is designed to be entirely fixed below the gum  10  and is divided into a lower connecting section  311  that located lower than a highest point of the narrowed bone top  21 , and an upper connecting section  312  that located higher than the highest point of the narrowed bone top  21 . The lower connecting section  311  is formed of a single independent connecting body  311   a,  which defines a 3D surface  311   a   1  completely corresponding to a configuration of a side wall surface of the narrowed bone top  21 . The 3D surface  311   a   1  has one side in contact with the narrowed bone top  21 , so that the narrowed bone top  21  and the lower connecting section  311  together form a locked part  34  that has an overall thickness larger than that of the narrowed bone top  21 . More specifically, the 3D surface  311   a   1  of the lower connecting section  311  can fitly and tightly contact with the narrowed bone top  21  without leaving any clearance between them. As shown in  FIG. 1 , the upper connecting section  312  has an upper side forming a top side  312   a  and a lower side forming a bottom side  312   b.  The top side  312   a  is located higher than the highest point of the narrowed bone top  21  and defines a smooth connecting surface  312   a   1 . 
     The bottom side  312   b  has a large part being integrally formed with the lower connecting section  311 , while other parts of the bottom side  312   b  defines a pressing surface  312   b   1  that is different from the connecting surface  312   a   1  in shape. In the illustrated first embodiment, the pressing surface  312   b   1  is in contact with the highest point of the narrowed bone top  21  and is located to one side of the independent connecting body  311   a.    
     The tooth portion  32  is fixed to the connecting surface  312   a   1  of the base portion  31 , and includes an abutment  321  and a crown  322  that forms an occlusal surface. The abutment  321  has two opposite ends, i.e. a first end  321   a  and a second end  321   b.  The first end  321   a  is in connected to the connecting surface  312   a   1  and adjoining to the patient&#39;s gum  10 . The second end  321   b  is connected to the crown  322 . In the illustrated first embodiment, the base portion  31 , the abutment  322  and the crown  322  are fixedly held to one another using an adhesive material (not shown). As shown, the first end  321   a  of the abutment  321  forms a bottom portion that is in contact with the base portion  31  and the gum  10  at the same time, and the second end  321   b  of the abutment  321  forms a top portion that is in contact with the crown  322  only. The abutment  321  further has a contact plate portion  321   c  that is peripherally outward extended from between the bottom portion and the top portion. The crown  322  is formed with a downward opened recess  322   a  located and shaped corresponding to the top portion of the abutment  321  and has a bottom surface configured for fitly adhering to the contacting plate portion  321   c.    
     The dental anchor  33  is inserted from the independent connecting body  311   a  of the base portion  31  toward the narrowed bone top  21  of the alveolar bone  20  into the locked part  34 , so that the base portion  31  is fixedly locked to the narrowed bone top  21  via the dental anchor  33  and is restricted by the dental anchor  33  from displacing relative to the narrowed bone top  21 . As shown, a partial length of the dental anchor  33  that is inserted into the narrowed bone top  21  is defined as a first anchoring section  331 , and other length of the dental anchor  33  that is contacted with the lower connecting section  311  and in contact with the independent connecting body  311   a  is defined as a second anchoring section  332 . The dental anchor  33  having been inserted into the locked part  34  would leave a small portion projected from the lower connecting section  311  of the base portion  31 . This projected small portion of the dental anchor  33  can be polished away by the dentist, so that the dental anchor is flush with the surface of the lower connecting section  311  to form a continuous curved surface. 
     Please refer to  FIG. 2  that shows a second embodiment of the present invention. The second embodiment is different from the first one in that the bone-bonded artificial tooth structure  30  further includes an auxiliary anchor  35 , i.e. the bone-bonded artificial tooth structure  30  in the second embodiment of the present invention includes a base portion  31 , a tooth portion  32 , a dental anchor  33  and an auxiliary anchor  35 . As shown in  FIG. 2 , like the dental anchor  33 , the auxiliary anchor  35  is inserted from the independent connecting body  311   a  of the base portion  31  toward the narrowed bone top  21  of the alveolar bone  20  into the locked part  34 . A partial length of the auxiliary anchor  35  that is inserted into the narrowed bone top  21  is defined as a first auxiliary section  351 , and other length of the auxiliary anchor  35  that is contacted with the lower connecting section  311  and in contact with the independent connecting body  311   a  is defined as a second auxiliary section  352 . In the illustrated second embodiment, the dental anchor  33  is inserted into the locked part  34  in a direction parallel to the direction in which the auxiliary anchor  35  is inserted into the locked part  34 , and the dental anchor  33  and the auxiliary anchor  35  are vertically spaced from each other. 
     However, it is understood the description that both of the dental anchor  33  and the auxiliary anchor  35  are inserted into the narrowed bone top  21  of the alveolar bone  20  from the independent connecting body  311   a  of the base portion  31  is only illustrative for easy explanation of the present invention. In other embodiments, the dental anchor  33  and the auxiliary anchor  35  can be inserted into the locked part  34  from different directions. For example, in an operable embodiment as shown in  FIG. 3 , the dental anchor  33  is inserted from the independent connecting body  311   a  of the base portion  31  toward the narrowed bone top  21  of the alveolar bone  20  into the locked part  34 , while the auxiliary anchor  35  is inserted from narrowed bone top  21  into the independent connecting body  311   a.  In this embodiment, the dental anchor  33  and the auxiliary anchor  35  are inserted into the locked part  34  in two directions oblique to each other. 
     Please refer to  FIG. 4  that shows a third embodiment of the present invention. Third embodiment is different from the first one in that the tooth portion  32  further includes a fastening screw  323  and a locating element  324 . As shown in  FIG. 4 , the fastening screw  323  is downward threaded through the abutment  321  of the tooth portion  32  into the upper connecting section  312  of the base portion  31 , such that the abutment  321  is firmly connected to the base portion  31 , and the crown  322  is covered on a top of the fastening screw  323 . On the other hand, the locating element  324  is threaded through the crown  322  of the tooth portion  32  into the abutment  321  to be locked thereto, such that the abutment  321  and the crown  322  are fixedly connected to each other through the locating element  324 . 
     Please refer to  FIG. 5  that shows a fourth embodiment of the present invention configured for a patient having a missing tooth that is originally misaligned with other teeth. In this case, the abutment  321  can be changed in its shape to meet the patient&#39;s particular teeth condition. As shown in  FIG. 5 , the first end  321   a  of the abutment  321  is similarly formed as a bottom portion for contacting with the connecting surface  312   a   1 , while the second end  321   b  of the abutment  321  is formed into a top portion slightly inclined relative to the first end  321   a,  such that the crown  322  of the tooth portion  32  mounted on the abutment  321  is also inclined in a direction to match the original teeth occlusion. Thus, the bone-bonded artificial tooth structure  30  according to the present invention can also be applied to misaligned original teeth. 
     Please refer to  FIGS. 6A and 6B  that show a fifth embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the base portion  31  is formed by 3D printing to have a substantially T-shaped independent connecting body  311   a,  which includes a vertical section  311   a   2  formed below the upper connecting section  312  and a horizontal section  311   a   3  formed at a lower end of the vertical section  311   a   2 . As shown in  FIG. 6B , when the first anchoring section  331  of the dental anchor  33  is inserted into the narrowed bone top  21  of the alveolar bone  20 , the second anchoring section  332  of the dental anchor  33  is set outside of the independent connecting body  311   a  of the base portion  31  and located below the horizontal section  311   a   3  to abut against an underside of the horizontal section  311   a   3 . 
     However, it is understood the description that the second anchoring section  332  of the dental anchor  33  is in contact with the underside of the horizontal section  311   a   3  is only illustrative to facilitate easy explanation of the present invention. In another operable embodiment as shown in  FIGS. 7A and 7B , the second anchoring section  332  is located above the horizontal section  311   a   3  to abut on an upper side of the horizontal section  311   a   3 . Further, in a further operable embodiment as shown in  FIG. 8 , the second anchoring section  332  is protruded from the independent connecting body  311   a  with only a small part set outside of the horizontal section  311   a   3 . 
     Please refer to  FIG. 9  that shows a sixth embodiment of the present invention. The sixth embodiment is different from the second one in that the lower connecting section  311  has a different structural configuration. As shown, the lower connecting section  311  of the base portion  31  in the sixth embodiment includes a first lower connecting body  311   b  and a second lower connecting body  311   c  spaced from the first lower connecting body  311   b,  and the pressing surface  312   b   1  of the upper connecting section  312  is located between the first lower connecting body  311   b  and the second lower connecting body,  311   c,  such that the first lower connecting body  311   b  and the second lower connecting body,  311   c  are located at two opposite sides of the pressing surface  312   b   1 . Besides, the dental anchor  33  is inserted from the first lower connecting body  311   b  into the narrowed bone top  21  of the alveolar bone  20 , while the auxiliary anchor  35  is inserted from the second lower connecting body  311   c  into the narrowed bone top  21 . 
     However, it is understood the description that the dental anchor  33  and the auxiliary anchor  35  are inserted into only the narrowed bone top  21  is simply illustrative to facilitate easy explanation of the present invention. In another operable embodiment as shown in  FIG. 10 , when inserting the dental anchor  33  into the locked part  34 , the dental anchor  33  is extended through the first lower connecting body  311   b  of the lower connecting section  311  and the narrowed bone top  21  of the alveolar bone  20  into the second lower connecting body  311   b  of the lower connecting section  311  sequentially, such that the dental anchor  33  has one first anchoring section  331  set in the narrowed bone top  21  and two second anchoring sections  332 , one of the latter is set in the first lower connecting body  311   b  while the other is set in the second lower connecting body  311   c,  with the first anchoring section  331  located between the two second anchoring sections  332 . On the other hand, when inserting the auxiliary anchor  35  into the locked part  34 , the auxiliary anchor  35  is extended through the second lower connecting body  311   c  and the narrowed bone top  21  into the first lower connecting body  311   b  sequentially, such that the auxiliary anchor  35  has one first auxiliary section  351  set in the narrowed bone top  21  as the first anchoring section  331 , and two second auxiliary sections  352 , one of the two second auxiliary sections  352  is set in the second lower connecting body  311   c  while the other second auxiliary sections  352  is set in the first lower connecting body  311   b , with the first auxiliary section  351  located between the two second auxiliary sections  352 . As can be seen in  FIG. 10 , the dental anchor  33  and the auxiliary anchor  35  are inserted into the locked part  34  in two oblique directions. 
     Please refer to  FIG. 11  that shows a seventh embodiment of the present invention. In the seventh embodiment, the base portion  31  is a curved long strip having a substantially upside down U-shaped configuration for applying to an atrophied alveolar bone  20  without ridges. In this case, a plurality of spaced dental anchors  33  can be horizontally inserted into the base portion  21 , so as to form multiple anchoring points between the base portion  21  and the alveolar bone  20  to ensure increased supporting stability. 
     Please refer to  FIG. 12  that shows an eighth embodiment of the present invention. In the eighth embodiment, the base portion  31  and the tooth portion  32  are integrally formed using the same material to constitute the bone-bonded artificial tooth structure  30 . In this embodiment, the dental anchor  33  and the auxiliary anchor  35  are inserted into the locked part  34  in two oblique directions, such that they are separately set at a front and a rear location relative to one another, and the dental anchor  33  has a length extended beyond the auxiliary anchor  35 , i.e. the dental anchor  33  and the auxiliary anchor obliquely cross each other. 
     Briefly, the bone-bonded artificial tooth structure according to the present invention can be applied to a patient who has one or more missing teeth, including incisors, canines, premolars or molars, or has misaligned teeth, so long as the patient does not involve other dental diseases. 
     The present invention has been described with some preferred embodiments and it is understood that many changes and modifications in the described embodiments can be carried out without departing from the scope and the spirit of the invention that is intended to be limited only by the appended claims.
