Utility
Intraoral OCT with compressive sensing
15 Nov 22
A method for acquiring image data obtains, for an intraoral feature, optical coherence tomography (OCT) data in three dimensions wherein at least one dimension is pseudo-randomly or randomly sampled and reconstructs an image volume of the intraoral feature using compressive sensing, wherein data density of the reconstructed image volume is larger than that of the obtained OCT data in the at least one dimension or according to a corresponding transform.

Utility
Dental Screw and Dental Fastening Tool
6 Oct 22
The present disclosure provides a dental screw (10) for fixing dental components (1, 2) to each other, the dental screw having a proximal end (11), a distal end (12), and a longitudinal axis (LS), wherein the dental screw further comprises a screw head (13) including a tool engaging interface (20) for engaging a fastening tool (30) at the proximal end and distally to the screw head a screw shank (14), the screw shank comprising a torque limiting portion (15) and distally to the torque limiting portion a threaded portion (16) for engaging a dental component (1, 2, 3), wherein the dental screw is configured to transfer a minimum torque from the tool engaging interface to the threaded portion of 26 Ncm and the torque limiting portion is configured to limit the torque transferable to a maximum torque for preventing damage to the threaded portion.
