In so doing, an implant can securely engage tissue surrounding and forming the cavity, resulting in the ability for the tissue to penetrate and fuse with the implant while also reducing chances of infection and overall recovery time. In addition, a distal end of the orthopedic drill bit can be formed with an obtuse angulation between termini of two or more drill bit flutes; thereby allowing cutting forces to be spread across a large cutting area and reducing wear on the drill bit. Moreover, by spreading the cutting force over a large area, heat generated by the drill bit can be reduced and thus, discomfort experienced by the patient can also be reduced.

POLYMER CORE PROSTHETIC DENTAL DEVICE WITH AN ESTHETIC SURFACE
A prosthetic dental device has an inner portion formed of an inner material and an outer portion formed of an outer material that covers at least a part of the inner portion. The inner material is substantially different from the color of natural teeth while the outer material is substantially the same color as natural teeth. Both the inner material and the outer material comprise a polymer.

A ceramic/metallic dental abutment for use with an implant, the abutment generally including a ceramic body portion having a base region, a transgingival region, and a supragingival region. The base region includes an anti-rotational implant interface, such as an external polygonal fitting, for engaging a cooperating internal polygonal fitting of an implant to prevent relative rotation between the abutment and the implant. The ceramic abutment body portion additionally includes a metal implant contact portion for contacting the implant and providing a load-bearing, metal-on-metal interface between the abutment and the implant.

Medical implant package with a cap having a cavity
A medical implant package including a vial and a cap connected by a hinge. The vial includes a cavity for housing at least a portion of a dental implant. To access the implant, the cap is rotated about the hinge from a closed position to an open position. The cap defines a second cavity, separate from the vial cavity, sized to contain a healing screw. In one embodiment, the cap includes two portions connected by a living hinge which define the second cavity. The two cap portions, when moved relative to each other via the living hinge, permit access to the healing screw. In an alternative embodiment, the cap includes two retention members sized and configured to grip the healing screw. To remove the healing screw from the cap, the two retention members are displaced apart from each other by engaging them with a wedge extending from the vial.

A model head including a jaw insert having layers of varying materials replicating the anatomical features of a human jaw. The jaw may include a mock nerve system that provides a signal to indicate the condition of the nerve. The jaw also may include a circulatory system including vessels that simulate the bleeding that occurs when a vessel in a human has been damaged.
