Impression jig assembly for use with dental implants

摘要

The present invention relates to an impression jig assembly for coupling to a bone implant (10) comprising: a split sleeve having co-axial upper and lower sleeve members (31, 32); and a fixing screw (5) for clamping the split sleeve to the implant. The fixing screw in use passes through the split sleeve, and can be withdrawn once impression material has hardened around the assembly to allow the upper sleeve member to separate from the lower sleeve member.
