20130137061 | DENTAL IMPLANTS, DEVICES AND METHODS ASSOCIATED WITH DENTAL IMPLANTATION PROCEDURES - A dental implant installation procedure is provided in which a distal end of a dental implant is projected into a paranasal sinus cavity or a nasal cavity to thereby displace the respective sinus membrane or nasal cavity membrane from the respective cavity floor, while minimizing risk of damaging the respective membrane. Bone graft material is introduced into the space thereby created between the respective membrane and the respective cavity floor via a distal portion of the dental implant to thereby form a desired sinus augmentation. | 05-30-2013 |
20130011815 | DENTAL IMPLANTS, DEVICES AND METHODS ASSOCIATED WITH DENTAL IMPLANTATION PROCEDURES - A dental implant is provided. In some embodiments, the dental implant facilitates viewing an outside of a distal end thereof via a proximal opening thereof, and/or facilitates providing bone graft material via selectively closable one or more distal openings. A dental implant installation procedure is also provided in which a distal end of a dental implant is projected into a paranasal sinus cavity or a nasal cavity to thereby displace the respective sinus membrane or nasal cavity membrane from the respective cavity floor, while minimizing risk of damaging the respective membrane. Bone graft material is introduced into the space thereby created between the respective membrane and the respective cavity floor via a distal portion of the dental implant to thereby form a desired sinus augmentation. | 01-10-2013 |
20100248178 | DEVICE, SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DENTAL TREATMENT - A device and system for use in a root canal treatment is provided. The device has a probe member and a handpiece for holding the elongate probe member. The probe member has an elongate distal portion capable of being accommodated in a root canal. The probe member has at least one treatment channel with a distal opening in the elongate distal portion. The at least one treatment channel is configured for enabling operation of a suitable root canal treatment tool via the distal opening. At least one illumination channel includes a first light guide having a first proximal end configured for optical coupling to a light source system, and a second distal end in the distal portion for illuminating internal regions of the root c anal during operation of the device. At least one light collection channel includes a second light guide having a first proximal end configured for optical coupling to an imaging system, and a second distal end located in the distal portion for collecting and transmitting light reflected from internal regions of the root canal to the proximal end during operation of the device. A number of methods for monitoring and carrying out various dental treatments are provided. | 09-30-2010 |
20100196841 | Dental implants, devices and methods associated with dental implantation procedures - A dental implant installation procedure is provided in which a distal end of a dental implant is projected into a paranasal sinus cavity or a nasal cavity to thereby displace the respective sinus membrane or nasal cavity membrane from the respective cavity floor, while minimizing risk of damaging the respective membrane. Bone graft material is introduced into the space thereby created between the respective membrane and the respective cavity floor via a distal portion of the dental implant to thereby form a desired sinus augmentation. | 08-05-2010 |
20100047733 | Device, system and method for procedures associated with the intra-oral cavity - A device and system for use in procedures associated with the intra-oral cavity, the device having a probe member and a handpiece for holding the elongate probe member, the probe member having an elongate distal portion capable of being manipulated in the intra-oral cavity, the probe member comprising: at least one treatment channel having a distal opening in the elongate distal portion, the at least one treatment channel being configured for enabling operation of a suitable tool via the distal opening; at least one illumination channel comprising a first light guide having a first proximal end configured for optical coupling to a light source system, and a second distal end in the distal portion for illuminating regions of interest during operation of the device; at least one light collection channel configured for optical coupling to an imaging system and for collecting and transmitting light reflected from the regions of interest during operation of the device. | 02-25-2010 |
