SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention is an anatomical restoration dental implant system for posterior and anterior teeth, which is embedded within a tapered alveolus of a patient's jawbone. The implant system comprises an anatomic implant fixture, a matching abutment member seated above the anatomic implant fixture and a bolt member for securing the abutment member to the anatomic implant fixture.

The implant fixture has a head section with a top end, a tapered shaft section with a bottom end, and an off-center stepped interior closed bore which extends downwardly from the top end to the middle of the tapered shaft section, the top end having a bevel periphery surface. When the teeth are large, the bone resorption progresses from facial side to the lingual side. The off-center alignment of the head section of the present invention implant fixture compensates this pattern of bone resorption.

The tapered shaft section of the implant fixture has a plurality of spaced apart transverse annular grooves and a longitudinal groove, where the plurality of spaced apart transverse annular grooves and the longitudinal groove provide a greater surface area into which bone growth are formed to prevent the implant fixture from vertical and rotational movements once the tapered shaft section has been press-fitted within the tapered alveolus of the jawbone. The bottom end of the shaft section has a gap therebetween for also allowing bone growth therein to prevent the implant fixture from rotational movements.

The head section and the shaft section of the implant fixture are integrally formed and connected as one-piece without any micro gap there between. This important feature prevents bacteria or other infection growth between the head section and the shaft section of the implant fixture. This one-piece implant fixture can also be used in both the one-stage and the two-stage implant surgeries.

The matching abutment member is used for supporting a tooth analogue. It has a proximal portion with a proximal end, a distal end with an opening, a stepped interior bore which extends from the distal end to the proximal end, the proximal end having a complementary interior bevel periphery surface surrounding the stepped interior bore. The abutment member is installed over the top end of the head section of the implant fixture such that the complementary interior bevel periphery surface of the abutment member abuts against the bevel periphery surface of the top end of the implant fixture, thereby providing a perfect match therebetween. The matching abutment can also have a pre-angulated shape to correct the misplaced implant fixture position.

The bolt member is inserted into the stepped interior bore of the abutment member and threadedly engaged with the inner threads of the off-center interior bore of the implant fixture, thereby securing the abutment member to the implant fixture.

It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a dental implant fixture which has a plurality of transverse annular grooves and a longitudinal groove for providing a greater surface area into which bone growth are formed to prevent the implant fixture from vertical and rotational movements and to further support the implant fixture within the patient's jawbone.

It is another object of the present invention to provide a dental implant fixture where the head section and the shaft section of the implant fixture are integrally formed and connected as one-piece without any micro gap there between, to thereby prevent bacteria or other infection growth between the head section and the shaft section of the implant fixture.

It is an additional object of the present invention to provide a dental implant fixture with an arch shaped bottom end for also providing a surface area which bone growth is formed to prevent the implant fixture from further rotational movements.

It is a further object of the present invention to provide a dental implant fixture with various shaped top surfaces and a matching abutment member with various shaped bottom surfaces such as elliptical shapes or rounded triangle shapes, which can provide a better match with various shaped tooth analogues.

It is still a further object of the present invention to provide a dental implant fixture with a top end having a bevel periphery surface and a matching abutment member with a bottom end having a complementary bevel periphery surface to match the top bevel periphery surface of the implant fixture, which creates an emergence profile of the future crown.

In a first preferred embodiment, the present invention anatomical dental implant system is used for posterior teeth. It includes an implant fixture which has an elliptical shaped top surface with a bevel periphery surface, and an abutment member which has a matching elliptical shaped bottom surface which matches the elliptical shaped top surface of the implant fixture and a complementary bevel surface which matches the bevel periphery surface of the implant fixture.

In a second preferred embodiment, the present invention anatomical dental implant system is used for upper four front anterior teeth. It includes an implant fixture which has a rounded triangle shaped top surface with a bevel periphery surface, and an abutment member which has a matching rounded triangle shaped bottom surface which matches the rounded triangle top surface of the implant fixture and a complementary bevel surface which matches the bevel periphery surface of the implant fixture.

In a third preferred embodiment, the present invention anatomical dental implant system is used for lower four front anterior teeth. It includes an implant fixture which has a rounded triangle shaped top surface with a bevel periphery surface, where a hexagonal nut is integrally formed on the rounded triangle shaped top surface of the implant fixture, and an abutment member which has a matching rounded triangle shaped bottom surface which matches the rounded triangle shaped top surface of the implant fixture and a complementary bevel surface which matches the bevel periphery surface of the implant, where the abutment member further has a hexagonal recess which is installed over the hexagonal nut on the implant fixture.

Further novel features and other objects of the present invention will become apparent from the following detailed description, discussion and the appended claims, taken in conjunction with the drawings.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

Although specific embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings, it should be understood that such embodiments are by way of example only and merely illustrative of but a small number of the many possible specific embodiments which can represent applications of the principles of the present invention. Various changes and modifications obvious to one skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains are deemed to be within the spirit, scope and contemplation of the present invention as further defined in the appended claims.

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, there are shown respective side elevational view and exploded side elevational view of the first preferred embodiment of the present invention anatomical restoration dental implant system 10 for posterior teeth, including a small bolt member 12, a matching abutment member 14, and an anatomic dental implant fixture 16. The dental implant fixture 16 is embedded into a tapered alveolus 8 which is surgically provided in a patient's jawbone 2 (see FIG. 11 ).

Referring to FIG. 2, the bolt member 12 has a widened head segment 18 and an elongated shaft segment 20. The widened head segment 18 is generally disc shaped with a top notch or cross notch 22 or any other suitable means to accommodate a driving tool, for example, a screwdriver or any other tool for rotating the bolt member 12. The shaft segment 20 has one end 21 integrally connected to the head segment 18. The shaft segment 20 has outer screw threads 24 which are located opposite from the head segment 18 and extend along at least a portion of its length.

Referring to FIGS. 1, 2, 3 and 5, the anatomic dental implant fixture 16 consists of a head section 26 with a widened proximal end 28 and an elongated tapered shaft section 30 with a narrow distal end 32. The head section 26 is integrally connected to the tapered shaft section 30, and thereby forms a one-piece implant fixture 16. This prevents bacteria or other infection growth between the head section and the shaft section of the implant fixture.

The implant fixture 16 further has an off-center stepped interior closed bore 36 which extends partially downward from the widened proximal end 28 to the middle 38 of the tapered shaft section 30. The interior closed bore 36 has inner screw threads 45 along at least a portion of its length and an annular shelf 43 located above the inner screw threads 45 (see FIG. 5).

Referring to FIGS. 4 and 6, there are shown respective enlarged top and bottom plan views of the anatomic implant fixture 16. The narrow distal end 32 is generally circular shaped with an arch shaped gap 40, whereas the widened proximal end 28 is generally elliptical shaped. The elliptical shaped proximal end 28 has a circular flat surface 41 surrounded by a bevel periphery surface 42 and has a long-axis and a short axis. The elliptical proximal end 28 further has two small opposite closed apertures 34 and 35 for accommodating small tips of a standard dental tool, for example, a forceps for orienting the implant fixture 16. The head section 26 also has a wider facial-side surface area 29 and a narrower lingual-side surface area 31. The facial-side surface area 29 accommodates the contour of the gingival tissue at the facial-side of the patient's oral cavity, which is located adjacent to the interior surface of the patient's cheek, while the lingual-side surface area 31 accommodates the contour of the gingival tissue at the lingual-side of the patient's oral cavity which is located adjacent to the patient's tongue.

Referring to FIGS. 5 and 11, the tapered shaft section 30 of the implant fixture 16 has a plurality of spaced apart transverse annular grooves 44 and a longitudinal groove 46. The longitudinal groove 46 extends upwardly from the narrow distal end 32 to the middle 38 of the tapered shaft section 30, where the plurality of transverse annular grooves 44 and the longitudinal groove 46 provide a greater surface area into which bone growth are formed to prevent the implant fixture 16 from vertical and rotational movements within the jawbone 2. The gap 40 at the narrow distal end 32 of the tapered distal shaft section 30 further provides an area, where bone growth can grow therein to prevent the implant fixture 16 from further rotational movements. The tapered shaft section 30 of the implant fixture 16 is installed within the tapered alveolus 8 of the jawbone 2 by press-fit such that the head section 26 rests above the jawbone 2. The head section 26 of the implant fixture 16 has a generally divergent shaped body for accommodating the gingival tissues 4 which surround the patient's jawbone 2. The implant fixture 16 is oriented within the tapered alveolus 8 of the jawbone 2 by rotating the head section 26 so that the facial side area 29 is located adjacent to the interior surface of the patient's oral cavity while the lingual-side area 31 is located adjacent to the patient's tongue.

Referring to FIG. 1, 2, 7, 9 and 11, the matching abutment member 14 is used for supporting a tooth analogue 6. The tooth analogue 6 may be attached to the abutment member 14 by conventional means such as cement or a small screw (not shown) which can be inserted from the side of tooth analogue 6 and threaded into the abutment member 14. The abutment member 14 has a narrow distal end 48 with a circular opening 49, a widened proximal portion 50 with a protruding proximal truncated cone shaped engagement end 52 extending therefrom, and a stepped interior bore 54 which extends through from the distal end 48 to the protruding proximal truncated cone shaped engagement end 52.

Referring to FIGS. 8 and 10, there are shown respective enlarged top and bottom plan views of the abutment member 14. The widened proximal portion 50 is generally elliptical shaped which matches the widened elliptical shaped proximal end 28 of the head section 26 of the implant fixture 16. The elliptical shaped proximal portion 50 further has an interior circular flat surface 57 surrounding the protruding engagement end 52. The interior circular flat surface 57 is surrounded by an interior bevel periphery surface 56. These surfaces 57 and 56 of the abutment member 14 respectively match the surfaces 41 and 42 of the head section 26 of the implant fixture 16.

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 11, the abutment member 14 is seated over the implant fixture 16 by inserting the protruding engagement end 52 into the off-center interior bore 36 of the implant fixture 16, where the elliptical shaped proximal portion 50 of the abutment member 14 matches and completed covers the elliptical shaped proximal end 28 of the head section 26 of the implant fixture 16. It can be seen that the bevel periphery surface 42 of the head section 26 of the implant fixture 16 now matches perfectly with the interior bevel periphery surface 56 of the abutment member 14. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 11, the elliptical shaped proximal portion 50 of the abutment member 14 fully covers the elliptical shaped proximal end 28 of head section 26 of the implant fixture 16. This eliminates any possibility of having food debris and bacteria collected between the abutment member 14 and the dental implant fixture 16 and reduces the chance of causing any infectious diseases.

Referring now to FIG. 11, the abutment member 14 is seated and secured to the dental implant fixture 16 by the bolt member 12. The bolt member 12 is inserted into the stepped interior bore 54 of the abutment member 14 from the opening 49 at the narrow distal end 48 of the abutment member 14, where the head segment 18 rests on a shelf 58 (see FIG. 9) provided within the interior bore 54. The outer threads 24 on the shaft segment 20 of the bolt member 12 are compatible with the inner screw threads 45 of the implant fixture 16. It is noted that the shaft segment 20 of the bolt member 12 is longer than the stepped interior bore 54 of the abutment member 14, so that after the shaft segment 20 of the bolt member 12 extends through the interior bore 54 of the abutment member 14, there is still a substantial length of the shaft segment 20 of the bolt member 12 which can be threadably engaged with the inner screw threads 45 of the dental implant fixture 16 for fastening the abutment member 14 thereupon.

Referring to FIG. 9, the stepped interior bore 54 of the abutment member 14 may further include inner screw threads 60 which are compatible with the outer screw threads 24 of the shaft segment 20 of the bolt member 12. The inner screw threads 60 are located adjacent to and below the shelf 58. This provides an interlocked feature, in which the abutment member 14 and the bolt member 12 can be handled together as a unit, which reduces the possibility of either dropping or losing the small bolt member 12.

The present invention restoration dental implant system 10 may further include another small bolt member (not shown) for temporary covering the off-center stepped interior closed bore 36 of the implant fixture 16. This small bolt member may be threadedly engaged the inner screw threads 45, where the head of the small bolt member will be flush with the circular flat surface 41 of the head section 26 of the implant fixture and rests on the annular shelf 43, so that the healed gingival tissues around the tooth will not growth within the off-center interior closed bore 36.

The anatomical restoration dental implant system 10 further reduces the possibility of mismatching pairs of different configurations or dimensions of the implant fixtures and the matching abutment members, because the bottom configuration of the matching abutment member 14 and the top configuration of the implant fixture 16 are complementary of one another. The smaller profile of the widened elliptical proximal end of the implant fixture 16 also allows two tooth analogues to be positioned at a desired or required close distance.

Referring to FIG. 12, there is shown an exploded side elevational view of a second preferred embodiment of the present invention anatomical restoration dental implant system 110 for the upper four front anterior teeth, including a small bolt member 112, a matching abutment member 114, and an anatomic dental implant fixture 116. Since the anatomical restoration dental implant system 110 assembles and functions the same as previously described above except that the rounded equilateral triangle shaped proximal end 128 of the head section 126 of the implant fixture 116 and the rounded equilateral triangle shaped proximal portion 150 of the abutment member 114 are respectively substituted for the elliptical shaped proximal end 28 of the head section 26 of the implant fixture 16 and the elliptical shaped proximal portion 50 of the abutment member 14 shown in FIGS. 1 through 11, their parts are numbered correspondingly with 100 added to each reference number.

The bolt member 112 has a widened head segment 118 and an elongated shaft segment 120. The widened head segment 118 is generally disc shaped with a top notch or cross notch 122 or any other suitable means to accommodate a driving tool, for example, a screwdriver or any other tool for rotating the bolt member 112. The shaft segment 120 has one end 121 integrally connected to the head segment 118. The shaft segment 120 has outer screw threads 124 which are located opposite from the head segment 118 and extend along at least a portion of its length.

Referring to FIGS. 12, 13 and 15, the anatomic dental implant fixture 116 consists of a head section 126 with a widened proximal end 128 and an elongated tapered shaft section 130 with a narrow distal end 132. The head section 126 is integrally connected to the tapered shaft section 130, and thereby forms the anatomic dental implant fixture 116. The implant fixture 116 further has an off-center stepped interior closed bore 136 which extends partially downward from the widened proximal end 128 to the middle 138 of the tapered shaft section 130. The interior closed bore 136 has inner screw threads 145 along at least a portion of its length and an annular shelf 143 located above the inner screw threads 45 (see FIG. 15).

Referring to FIGS. 14 and 16, there are shown respective enlarged top and bottom plan views of the anatomic implant fixture 116. The narrow distal end 132 is generally circular shaped with an arch shaped gap 140, whereas the widened proximal end 128 is generally rounded triangle shaped. The rounded triangle shaped proximal end 128 has a circular flat surface 141 surrounded by a bevel periphery surface 142. The rounded triangle shaped proximal end 128 further has two small opposite closed apertures 134 and 135 for accommodating small tips of a standard dental tool. The head section 126 also has a wider facial-side surface area 129 and a narrower lingual-side surface area 131. The facial-side surface area 129 accommodates the contour of the gingival tissue at the facial-side of the patient's oral cavity, while the lingual-side surface area 131 accommodates the contour of the gingival tissue at the lingual-side of the patient's oral cavity which is located adjacent to the patient's tongue.

Referring to FIGS. 12, 13 and 15, the tapered shaft section 130 of the implant fixture 116 has a plurality of spaced apart transverse annular grooves 144 and a longitudinal groove 146. The longitudinal groove 146 extends upwardly from the narrow distal end 132 to the middle 138 of the tapered shaft section 130, where the plurality of transverse annular grooves 144 and the longitudinal groove 146 provide a greater surface area into which bone growth are formed to prevent the implant fixture 116 from vertical and rotational movements within the jawbone. The gap 140 at the narrow distal end 132 of the tapered distal shaft section 130 further provides an area, where bone growth can grow therein to prevent the implant fixture 116 from further rotational movements. The tapered shaft section 130 of the implant fixture 116 is installed within the tapered alveolus of the jawbone by press-fit such that the head section 126 rests above the jawbone. The head section 126 of the implant fixture 116 has a generally divergent shaped body for accommodating the gingival tissues which surround the patient's jawbone. The implant fixture 116 is oriented within the tapered alveolus of the jawbone by rotating the head section 126.

Referring to FIG. 12, 17 and 19, the matching abutment member 114 is used for supporting a tooth analogue. The tooth analogue may be attached to the abutment member 114 by conventional means such as cement or a small screw (not shown) which can be inserted from the side of tooth analogue and threaded into the abutment member 114. The abutment member 114 has a narrow distal end 148 with a circular opening 149, a widened proximal portion 150 with a protruding proximal truncated cone shaped engagement end 152 extending therefrom, and a stepped interior bore 154 which extends through from the distal end 148 to the protruding proximal truncated cone shaped engagement end 152.

Referring to FIGS. 18 and 20, there are shown respective enlarged top and bottom plan views of the abutment member 114. The widened proximal portion 150 is generally rounded equilateral triangle shaped which matches the rounded equilateral triangle shaped proximal end 128 of the head section 126 of the implant fixture 116. The rounded equilateral triangle shaped proximal portion 150 further has an interior circular flat surface 157 surrounding the protruding engagement end 152. The interior circular flat surface 157 is surrounded by an interior bevel periphery surface 156. These surfaces 157 and 156 of the abutment member 114 respectively match the surfaces 141 and 142 of the head section 126 of the implant fixture 116.

Referring again to FIG. 12, the abutment member 114 is seated over the implant fixture 116 by inserting the protruding engagement end 152 into the off-center interior bore 136 of the implant fixture 116, where the rounded triangle shaped proximal portion 150 of the abutment member 114 matches and completed covers the rounded triangle shaped proximal end 128 of the head section 126 of the implant fixture 116. It can be seen that the bevel periphery surface 142 of the head section 126 of the implant fixture 116 now matches perfectly with the interior bevel periphery surface 156 of the abutment member 114. The rounded equilateral triangle shaped proximal portion 150 of the abutment member 114 fully covers the rounded equilateral triangle shaped proximal end 128 of head section 126 of the implant fixture 116. This eliminates any possibility of having food debris and bacteria collected between the abutment member 114 and the dental implant fixture 116 and reduces the chance of causing any infectious diseases.

The abutment member 114 is seated and secured to the dental implant fixture 116 by the bolt member 112. The bolt member 112 is inserted into the stepped interior bore 154 of the abutment member 114 from the opening 149 at the narrow distal end 148 of the abutment member 114, where the head segment 118 rests on a shelf 158 provided within the interior bore 154. It is noted that the shaft segment 120 of the bolt member 112 is longer than the stepped interior bore 154 of the abutment member 114, so that after the shaft segment 120 of the bolt member 112 extends through the interior bore 154 of the abutment member 114, there is still a substantial length of the shaft segment 120 of the bolt member 112 which can be threadably engaged with the inner screw threads 145 of the dental implant fixture 116 for fastening the abutment member 114 thereupon.

Referring to FIG. 19, the stepped interior bore 154 of the abutment member 114 may further include inner screw threads 160 which are compatible with the outer screw threads 124 of the shaft segment 120 of the bolt member 112. The inner screw threads 160 are located adjacent to and below the shelf 158. This provides an interlocked feature, in which the abutment member 114 and the bolt member 112 can be handled together as a unit, which reduces the possibility of either dropping or losing the small bolt member 112.

The present invention restoration dental implant system 110 may further include another small bolt member (not shown) for temporary covering the off-center stepped interior closed bore 136 of the implant fixture 116. This small bolt member will threadedly engaged the inner screw threads 145, where the head of the small bolt member will be flush with the circular flat surface 141 of the head section 126 of the implant fixture 116 and rests on the annular shelf 143, so that the healed gingival tissues around the tooth will not growth within the off-center interior closed bore 136.

Referring to FIGS. 21 and 22, there are shown respective side elevational view and exploded side elevational view of a third preferred embodiment of the present invention anatomical restoration dental implant system 210 for the lower four front anterior teeth, including a small bolt member 212, a matching abutment member 214, and an anatomic dental implant fixture 216. Since the anatomical restoration dental implant system 210 assembles and functions the same as previously described in FIGS. 1 through 11 except that the rounded isosceles triangle shaped proximal end 228 of the head section 226 of the implant fixture 216 and the rounded isosceles triangle shaped proximal portion 250 of the abutment member 214 are respectively substituted for the elliptical shaped proximal end 28 of the head section 26 of the implant fixture 16 and the elliptical shaped proximal portion 50 of the abutment member 14, their parts are numbered correspondingly with 200 added to each reference number.

Referring to FIG. 22, the bolt member 212 has a widened head segment 218 and an elongated shaft segment 220. The widened head segment 218 is generally disc shaped with a top notch or cross notch 222 or any other suitable means to accommodate a driving tool, for example, a screwdriver or any other tool for rotating the bolt member 212. The shaft segment 220 has one end 221 integrally connected to the head segment 218. The shaft segment 220 has outer screw threads 224 which are located opposite from the head segment 218 and extend along at least a portion of its length.

Referring to FIGS. 21, 22, 23 and 25, the anatomic dental implant fixture 216 consists of a head section 226 with a widened proximal end 228 and an elongated tapered shaft section 230 with a narrow distal end 232. The head section 226 is integrally connected to the tapered shaft section 230. A hexagonal shaped nut 262 is integrally formed on the widened proximal end 228 of the head section 226. The implant fixture 216 further has an off-center interior closed bore 236 which extends partially downward from the hexagonal shaped nut 262 to the middle 238 of the tapered shaft section 230. The interior closed bore 236 has inner screw threads 245.

Referring to FIGS. 24 and 26, there are shown respective enlarged top and bottom plan views of the anatomic implant fixture 216. The narrow distal end 232 is generally circular shaped with an arch shaped gap 240, whereas the widened proximal end 28 is generally rounded isosceles triangle shaped. The rounded isosceles triangle shaped proximal end 228 has a bevel periphery surface 242. The head section 226 also has wider facial-side surface area 229 and a narrower lingual-side surface area 231. The facial-side surface area 229 accommodates the contour of the gingival tissue at the facial-side of the patient's oral cavity, while the lingual-side surface area 231 accommodates the contour of the gingival tissue at the lingual-side of the patient's oral cavity which is located adjacent to the patient's tongue.

Referring to FIGS. 25 and 31, the tapered shaft section 230 of the implant fixture 216 has a plurality of spaced apart transverse annular grooves 244 and a longitudinal groove 246. The longitudinal groove 246 extends upwardly from the narrow distal end 232 to the middle 238 of the tapered shaft section 230, where the plurality of transverse annular grooves 244 and the longitudinal groove 246 provide a greater surface area into which bone growth are formed to prevent the implant fixture 216 from vertical and rotational movements within the jawbone 2. The gap 240 at the narrow distal end 232 of the tapered distal shaft section 230 further provides an area, where bone growth can grow therein to prevent the implant fixture 216 from further rotational movements. The tapered shaft section 230 of the implant fixture 216 is installed within the tapered alveolus 8 of the jawbone 2 by press-fit such that the head section 226 rests above the jawbone 2 (see FIG. 31). The head section 226 of the implant fixture 216 has a generally divergent shaped body for accommodating the gingival tissues 4 which surround the patient's jawbone 2.

Referring to FIG. 21, 22, 27, 29 and 31, the matching abutment member 214 is used for supporting a tooth analogue 6. The tooth analogue 6 may be attached to the abutment member 214 by conventional means such as cement or a small screw (not shown) which can be inserted from the side of tooth analogue 6 and threaded into the abutment member 214. The abutment member 214 has a narrow distal end 248 with a circular opening 249, a widened proximal portion 250 with a proximal hexagonal recess 264, and a stepped interior bore 254 which extends through from the distal end 248 to the proximal hexagonal shaped recess 264.

Referring to FIGS. 28 and 30, there are shown respective enlarged top and bottom plan views of the abutment member 214. The widened proximal portion 250 is generally rounded isosceles triangle shaped which matches the rounded isosceles shaped proximal end 228 of the head section 226 of the implant fixture 216. The rounded isosceles shaped proximal portion 250 further has an interior bevel periphery surface 256. The bevel periphery surface 256 of the abutment member 214 matches the bevel periphery surface 242 of the head section 226 of the implant fixture 216.

Referring to FIGS. 21 and 31, the abutment member 114 is seated over the implant fixture 116 such that the hexagonal shaped recess 264 engages and covers the hexagonal shaped nut 262 of the implant fixture 216 and the rounded isosceles triangle shaped proximal portion 250 of the abutment member 214 matches and completed covers the rounded isosceles triangle shaped proximal end 228 of the head section 226 of the implant fixture 216. It can be seen that the bevel periphery surface 242 of the head section 226 of the implant fixture 216 now matches perfectly with the interior bevel periphery surface 256 of the abutment member 214. As shown in FIGS. 21 and 31, the rounded isosceles triangle shaped proximal portion 250 of the abutment member 214 fully covers the rounded isosceles shaped proximal end 228 of head section 226 of the implant fixture 216. This eliminates any possibility of having food debris and bacteria collected between the abutment member 214 and the dental implant fixture 216 and reduces the chance of causing any infectious diseases.

Referring now to FIG. 31, the abutment member 214 is seated and secured to the dental implant fixture 216 by the bolt member 212. The bolt member 212 is inserted into the stepped interior bore 254 of the abutment member 214 from the opening 249 at the narrow distal end 248 of the abutment member 214, where the head segment 218 rests on a shelf 258 provided within the interior bore 254. The outer threads 224 on the shaft segment 220 of the bolt member 212 are compatible with the inner screw threads 245 of the implant fixture 216. It is noted that the shaft segment 220 of the bolt member 212 is longer than the stepped interior bore 254 of the abutment member 214, so that after the shaft segment 220 of the bolt member 212 extends through the interior bore 254 of the abutment member 214, there is still a substantial length of the shaft segment 220 of the bolt member 212 which can be threadably engaged with the inner screw threads 245 of the dental implant fixture 216 for fastening the abutment member 214 thereupon.

Referring to FIG. 29, the stepped interior bore 254 of the abutment member 214 may further include inner screw threads 260 which are compatible with the outer screw threads 224 of the shaft segment 220 of the bolt member 212. The inner screw threads 260 are located adjacent to and below the shelf 258. This provides an interlocked feature, in which the abutment member 214 and the bolt member 212 can be handled together as a unit, which reduces the possibility of either dropping or losing the small bolt member 212.

The present invention restoration dental implant system 10 may further include a cover cap (not shown) for temporary covering the hexagonal shaped nut 262 and the rounded isosceles triangle shaped proximal end 228 of the implant fixture 216, so that the healed gingival tissues around the tooth will not growth within the off-center interior closed bore 236.
