A new dental implant transfer device prevents impression distortion when fixtures are not parallel. This innovative tool disengages from the implant-abutment connection, allowing for distortion-free model creation.

Area of Science:

  • Dental Implantology
  • Prosthodontics
  • Biomaterials Engineering

Background:

  • Accurate three-dimensional orientation transfer of dental implants to models is crucial for successful prosthodontic rehabilitation.
  • Impression distortion can occur during removal from the mouth, especially with non-parallel implant fixtures, compromising model accuracy.
  • Existing impression techniques may lead to inaccuracies when multiple implants are not perfectly aligned.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a novel impression transfer device designed to overcome distortion issues in dental implant impressions.
  • To present a method for disengaging the transfer from the implant-abutment connection for easier tray removal.
  • To ensure accurate replication of the three-dimensional implant orientation in the final model.

  • Development of a specialized impression transfer device featuring a disengageable component.
  • The device incorporates a proper transfer, an inner hexagon, and a central screw.
  • A technique for removing the central screw and hexagon to allow horizontal movement of the transfer.

Main Results:

  • The described transfer device allows for the disengagement of the transfer component from the internal implant-abutment connection.
  • Removal of the central screw and hexagon frees the transfer to move horizontally.
  • This mechanism enables the impression tray to be removed from the mouth without causing distortion of the impression material.

Conclusions:

  • The novel impression transfer device effectively prevents distortion during the removal of impressions from non-parallel dental implants.
  • This technique enhances the accuracy of the cast model, leading to improved fit of the final prosthesis.
  • The disengageable transfer mechanism offers a practical solution for complex implant cases in dental practice.
