Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to guided dental procedures and, more particularly, to a system and method for determining as-implanted parameters of the anchor portion of a dental implant for facilitating formation and installation of the prosthetic portion relative to the anchor portion in the dental implant process.
- a dental implant procedure generally involves an invasive incision into the gum of the patient in order to allow the practitioner to view the underlying jawbone structure.
- a hole is then formed in the jaw structure, into which an anchor portion of a dental implant is placed (see, e.g., FIG. 1 A).
- the anchor portion may be shaped, for example, like a screw or other threaded member.
- the practitioner may be able to graphically visualize the jaw structure, without or before the invasive incision.
- CT computerized tomography
- the alignment of the dental implant with respect to the jaw structure and/or relative to other implants or teeth may be an important factor in determining, for example, the life of the dental implant, the aesthetics or appearance thereof, and the general comfort to the patient. If the dental implant is poorly implanted or otherwise not optimally placed, the dental implant can undesirably fail (or at least have a shorter service life), may undesirably cause other teeth or dental implants to be compromised, and/or damage proximal nerves.
- the dentist may often scan or image the as-implant anchor portion(s) to determine the as-implanted conditions or parameters (e.g., orientation, degree of rotation, skew, etc.) thereof.
- particular component/ s) e.g., scanning abutment(s) as shown, for example, in FIG. 2A
- scanning abutment(s) can be engaged with the anchor portion(s), as shown for example in FIG. 2B, wherein such scanning abutments will be apparent to a photogrammetry camera system (see, e.g., FIGS. 3 A and 3B) or an intraoral scanner (see, e.g., FIG.
- the prosthetic portion e.g., crown
- the anchor portion/abutment can be appropriately formed/generated to be received by the anchor portion/abutment such that the completed dental implant is properly aligned/oriented upon completion of the procedure.
- scanning systems can be relatively costly, may be cumbersome to implement, and/or may require significant data processing of the collected data to determine the as-implanted conditions or parameters of the anchor portion(s).
- a photogrammetry camera system used to capture the as-implanted data for the anchor portion(s) often implements optical flags in the form of a scanning abutment engaged with each implanted anchor portion, wherein such scanning abutments are generally cylindrical or rod-shaped, and extend parallel to or along the same axis as the anchor portion with which it is engaged.
- an intraoral scanner is used to form the images of the implanted anchor portion(s) for determining the as-implanted conditions of the anchor portion(s), particularly for patient cases where dental implants are being implemented for a full dental arch

- Dental implants 10 are typically simple, non-electronic devices, including an anchor portion 20 (in some instances, comprising two or more components such as a screw portion and an abutment received by the screw portion) made of titanium or some other standard biocompatible material, and a prosthetic portion 30 (e.g., a crown) received by the anchor portion 20 (or the abutment component thereof) made of metal (such as stainless steel, gold, or an alloy), porcelain-fused-to-metal, a resin, or a ceramic (see, e.g., FIG. 4).
- an anchor portion 20 in some instances, comprising two or more components such as a screw portion and an abutment received by the screw portion
- a prosthetic portion 30 e.g., a crown
- metal such as stainless steel, gold, or an alloy
- porcelain-fused-to-metal e.g., a resin
- a ceramic see, e.g., FIG. 4
- the anchor portion/screw portion is usually a threaded member that interacts with a bore in the jaw to threadedly engaged and secure the anchor portion/screw portion to the jaw.

- determining the positional and orientational parameters of the abutment 20B will also indicate the positional and orientational parameters of the screw portion 20 A, or the positional and orientational parameters of the screw portion 20A will be readily determinable from the determined positional and orientational parameters of the abutment 20B.
- the abutment 20B defines a receptacle 25 arranged in known spatial relation with the screw portion 20 A, upon engagement of the abutment 20B with the screw portion 20 A. That is, the receptacle 25 is formed in the abutment 20B in a predetermined or otherwise known positional and orientational (including angular orientation and rotational orientation) manner in the abutment 20B.
- determining the positional and orientational parameters of the receptacle 25 will also indicate the positional and orientational parameters of abutment 20B, and in turn, the screw portion 20 A, or the positional and orientational parameters of the receptacle 25 and the screw portion 20A will be readily determinable from the determined positional and orientational parameters of the abutment 20B.
- the receptacle 25 is configured to receive or otherwise be engaged by the locating probe (end effector 500 received by the procedure-conducting device 150), wherein the engagement between the locating probe and the receptacle 25 is in a known spatial relation, orientation (including angular orientation and rotational orientation), etc. with the abutment 20B.
- the locating probe and the receptacle 25 can be complementarity configured to engage each other in a predetermined or otherwise known positional and orientational (including angular orientation and rotational orientation) manner (e.g., using a key / keyway arrangement, a flat portion extending along the locating probe and the receptacle 25, etc.).
- These known spatial relations indicate spatial parameters of the implanted screw portion 20A for comparison with at least the screw portion 20A in the virtual dental implant procedure plan.
- the distal end / tip of the locating probe is tracked by the computer device 450 relative to the fiducial marker (and in some instances calibrated with respect thereto)
- the distal end / tip of the locating probe is in a known spatial relation, orientation (including angular orientation and rotational orientation), etc. with the fiducial marker.
- the known or determinable spatial relationships and orientations including angular orientation and rotational orientation
- the spatial relation and orientation (including angular orientation and rotational orientation), etc. of the screw portion 20A with respect to the fiducial marker is known or readily determinable.
- the dental implant system 100 includes a scan gauge 700 (see, e.g., FIG. 13A) having an elongate body 710 extending laterally non-parallel to an engagement element 720.
- the engagement element 720 is configured to engage the anchor portion 20 (e.g., the screw portion 20A and/or the abutment 20B as shown in FIGS. 11 A-l 1C), such that the engagement element 720 and the elongate body 710 of the scan gauge 700 are arranged in known spatial relation with the anchor portion 20.
- the dental implant system 100 can also include an intraoral scanner 730 in communication with the computer device 450, wherein the intraoral scanner 730 is arranged and configured to form an image (e.g., a 3D surface scan) of the jaw of the patient, wherein the image includes the scan gauge 700 engaged with the anchor portion 20.
- an intraoral scanner 730 in communication with the computer device 450, wherein the intraoral scanner 730 is arranged and configured to form an image (e.g., a 3D surface scan) of the jaw of the patient, wherein the image includes the scan gauge 700 engaged with the anchor portion 20.
- Such aspects of the dental implant system 100 may be particularly useful in instances in which the patient is not connected to a dental implantation robot as disclosed herein. That is in order to determine the as-implanted characteristics of the screw portion 20A or the anchor portion 20, the dental implantation robot may not be required to be engaged with the patient in order for the locating probe (end effector 500 received by the procedure-conducting device 150) to be implemented as disclosed herein.
- the intraoral scanner 730 can be used to image the jaw and the scan gauge 700 installed on an implanted anchor portion 20, wherein this imaging of the jaw and the scan gauge 700 engaged with the anchor portion 20 of the dental implant 10 would allow the location, angle, etc. of the implanted screw portion 20A and/or the abutment 20B to be determined, which can then be related back to the virtual procedure plan.
- aspects of the present disclosure involving the scan gauge 700 (see, e.g., FIG. 13A) having the elongate body 710 extending laterally non-parallel to the engagement element 720 address the noted example situation in which prior art scanning abutments affixed to corresponding anchor portions are too far apart to be captured in a single image with an intraoral scanner. That is, in such aspects involving the scan gauge 700, the engagement element 720 engages the anchor portion 20 (e.g., the screw portion 20A and/or the abutment 20B as shown in FIGS. 11A-11C) such that the elongate body 710 of the scan gauge 700 extends laterally and non-parallel to the anchor portion 20.
- the anchor portion 20 e.g., the screw portion 20A and/or the abutment 20B as shown in FIGS. 11A-11C
- the scan gauge 700 is configured to engage the anchor portion 20, by way of the engagement element 710, such that the elongate body 720 extends laterally to the anchor portion 20 (e.g., the elongate body 720 defines an axis extending perpendicularly to an axis defined by the anchor portion 20). Since the elongate body 720 extends laterally to the anchor portion 20, the elongate body 720 may have a sufficient length or span such that the scan gauge 700 provides sufficient features or landmarks extending into the spacing between adjacent anchor portions 20 to images captured by the intraoral scanner 730 to be “stitched’ together to form a single image of the implanted anchor portions 20 relative to each other.
- a dentist may be able to use an intraoral scanner 730 in communication with the computer device 450 to scan and image the arch and the anchor portions 20 implanted therein, wherein the computer device 450 may then stitch the scans/images across the together based on the features and/or landmarks of the scan gauge(s) 700.
- the abutment 20B may also be configured as the scan gauge 700 such that the abutment 20B could have dual functionality as disclosed herein for the abutment 20B as well as the scan gauge 700. That is, in some aspects, the abutment 20B can define a receptacle 25 arranged in known spatial relation with the screw portion 20 A, upon engagement of the abutment 20B with the screw portion 20 A. However, the abutment 20B can also include the engagement element 720 configured to engage the implanted screw portion 20A such that the elongate body 710 extends laterally and non-parallel to the screw portion 20 A.
- the abutment 20B so configured may be engaged with the screw portion 20A such that the receptacle 25 is arranged for receiving the locating probe when the dental implant robot is engaged with the patient, or such that the engagement element 720 engages the screw portion 20A and the elongate body 710 extends laterally and non-parallel to the screw portion 20A when the dental implant robot is not engaged with the patient.
- the scan gauge 700 may be a component of the dental implant system 100, in addition to the abutment 20B, wherein the scan gauge 700 can be implemented to engage the abutment 20B (with the abutment 20B engaged with the implanted screw portion 20 A) for scanning using the intraoral scanner 730, and then removed from the abutment 20B upon capture of the necessary images.
- the actual spatial relation and orientation (including angular orientation and rotational orientation), etc. of the screw portion 20 A can be compared to the spatial parameters of the screw portion 20 A in the virtual procedure plan.
- any differences between the spatial parameters of the anchor portion 20/screw portion 20A in the virtual procedure plan and the determined (actual) spatial parameters of the implanted anchor portion 20/screw portion 20A allow the implanted anchor portion 20/screw portion 20A to be adjusted to minimize or eliminate any determined difference.
- the spatial parameters of the anchor portion 20/screw portion 20A in the virtual procedure plan can be updated with the determined (actual) spatial parameters of the implanted anchor portion 20/screw portion 20 A.
- the computer device 450 is further configured to determine the spatial parameters of the implanted anchor portion 20/screw portion 20A including, for example, a location of the anchor portion 20/screw portion 20A relative to the jaw or relative to other structures associated with the jaw, an orientation of the anchor portion 20/screw portion 20A relative to the jaw, an implantation depth relative to the jaw, a rotational index of the anchor portion 20/screw portion 20 A relative to the jaw, or spatial parameters (including locations) of one implanted anchor portion 20/screw portion 20A relative to one or more other implanted anchor portion(s) 20/screw portion(s) 20A.
- Such spatial parameters can also be determined with respect to the fiducial marker.
- the computer device 450 is configured to determine any differences between the spatial parameters of the anchor portion 20/screw portion 20A in the virtual procedure plan and the determined spatial parameters of the implanted anchor portion 20/screw portion 20A such that the implanted anchor portion 20/screw portion 20A can be adjusted to minimize or eliminate any determined difference. In some aspects, the computer device 450 is configured to update spatial parameters of the anchor portion 20/screw portion 20A in the virtual procedure plan with the determined spatial parameters of the implanted anchor portion 20/screw portion 20 A.
- the dental implant 10 includes a prosthetic portion 30 configured to engage the abutment 20B.
- the virtual procedure plan includes a known spatial relation between the prosthetic portion 30 and the abutment 20B, and the computer device 450 is configured to update spatial parameters of the prosthetic portion 30 in the virtual procedure plan to compensate for any difference between the determined spatial parameters of the implanted anchor portion 20/screw portion 20A and the spatial parameters of the anchor portion 20/screw portion 20A in the virtual procedure plan.

- a bore is formed in the jaw for receiving the screw portion, with a first end effector engaged with the procedure-conducting device, and according to the virtual procedure plan (block 630).
- the abutment is engaged with the screw portion upon the screw portion being implanted within the bore, wherein the abutment defines a receptacle, such that the receptacle is arranged in known spatial relation with the implanted screw portion (block 640).

Abstract
Un système d'implant dentaire et des procédés comprennent un dispositif de repère et un marqueur en communication avec un bras de robot ayant un dispositif conducteur de procédure avec des effecteurs terminaux interchangeables. Un plan de procédure virtuelle comprend l'implantation d'une partie vis d'un implant dentaire en alignement avec le marqueur de repère. Un premier effecteur terminal forme un alésage selon le plan de procédure virtuelle et la partie vis est implantée à l'intérieur de celui-ci. Une butée en prise avec la partie vis délimite un réceptacle en relation spatiale connue avec la partie vis. Le réceptacle en relation spatiale connue avec la butée est mis en prise par un effecteur terminal de sonde de localisation. En variante, une jauge de balayage avec un corps s'étendant latéralement jusqu'à un élément de mise en prise en prise avec une partie d'ancrage est imagée, l'élément de mise en prise et le corps étant agencés en relation spatiale connue avec la partie d'ancrage. À partir des relations spatiales connues, des paramètres spatiaux de la partie vis implantée sont déterminés.
