Abstract

An improved implant root for tooth implanting, a coarse threaded portion of the implant root is formed to have at least two helical treated surfaces extending from the bottom to the top of the implant root of the coarse threaded portion each being treated with a roughened coating (for example, covered with a hydroxyapatite coating) and extending in the whole length of the coarse threaded portion and each extending in the vertical direction. The areas of the roughened coatings can thus be increased in favor of fast growth of a bone of a denture base after implanting into the bone to envelop the implant root; this can shorten the curing process from implanting the implant root to mounting a crown.

Claims

1. An improved implant root for tooth implanting into a bone of a denture base of a patient, said implant root comprises:

a connecting portion having on its outer surface a fine threaded portion connected with an abutment of a crown;

a coarse threaded portion on a lower area below said connecting portion, surfaces of said coarse threaded portion have sharp threads;

at least two helical treated surfaces formed on said coarse threaded portion and extending in a vertical direction from a bottom end to a top end of said coarse threaded portion and extending in whole length of said coarse threaded portion, said treated surfaces are treated with roughened coatings.

2. The improved implant root for tooth implanting as claimed in claim 1, wherein cut faces on said at least two helical treated surfaces are plane surfaces.

3. The improved implant root for tooth implanting as claimed in claim 1, wherein cut faces on said at least two helical treated surfaces laid out in an equiangularly spaced away mode are three arciform surfaces.

4. The improved implant root for tooth implanting as claimed in claim 1, wherein cut faces on said at least two helical treated surfaces are helical surfaces.

5. The improved implant root for tooth implanting as claimed in claim 1, wherein said connecting portion is provided with a polygonal hole, a screw hole is provided in a bottom surface of said polygonal hole, a polygonal shape of said polygonal hole is mated with a shape of a connecting section of said abutment of said crown, so that said abutment is fast and correctly positioned when in connecting with said implant root, and a bolt on a bottom of said abutment is adapted to being smoothly rotated to connect into said screw hole.

6. The improved implant root for tooth implanting as claimed in claim 1, wherein said at least two helical treated surfaces are more than three helical treated surfaces laid out in an equiangularly spaced away mode, said helical treated surfaces are formed on said coarse threaded portion and extending in said vertical direction from said bottom end to said top end of said coarse threaded portion and extending in whole length of said coarse threaded portion till a fine threaded portion of said connecting portion, and are cut inwardly gradually shallower from bottom to top.

7. The improved implant root for tooth implanting as claimed in claim 6, wherein each of many cut faces on said at least two helical treated surfaces at corresponding one of said threads forms a sharp blade at an intercrossing area with said thread of said coarse threaded portion or of said fine threaded portion.
