ARRANGEMENT AND ITS USE FOR ANCHORING A THREADED IMPLANT IN BONE, FOR EXAMPLE DENTINE

摘要

In an arrangement for anchoring a threaded implant (1) in dentine (2) by means of a screwing instrument (6), use is made of an implant which, at its upper part, is provided with an anchoring hole (1c) for a screw (5) intended to secure an element or fixture holder (4) that can be attached to the implant. The centre axis of the anchoring hole is inclined in relation to the longitudinal axis (1b) of the implant. The element is provided with means (4d) for cooperation with the instrument (6). The element and its means of cooperation permit application of the instrument in a way which ensures that the axis of rotation (6d) of the instrument essentially coincides with a continuation of the longitudinaxis (1b) of the implant.
