FIGS. 1-7 illustrate a first embodiment of a dental implant abutment. The environment is shown in broken lines and forms no part of the design.
FIGS. 8-14 illustrate a second embodiment of the dental implant abutment. The environment is shown in broken lines and forms no part of the design. Elements of the abutment that form no part of the design of the second embodiment are shown in dashed lines.
FIGS. 15-21 illustrates a third embodiment of the dental implant abutment. The environment is shown in broken lines and forms no part of the design. Elements of the abutment that form no part of the design of the third embodiment are shown in dashed lines.
FIGS. 21-28 illustrates a fourth embodiment of the dental implant abutment. The environment is shown in broken lines and forms no part of the design.
FIGS. 29-35 illustrate a fifth embodiment of the dental implant abutment. The environment is shown in broken lines and forms no part of the design. Elements of the abutment that form no part of the design of the fifth embodiment are shown in dashed lines.
FIGS. 36-42 illustrate a sixth embodiment of the dental implant abutment. The environment is shown in broken lines and forms no part of the design. Elements of the abutment that form no part of the design of the sixth embodiment are shown in dashed lines.
FIGS. 43-49 illustrate a seventh embodiment of the dental implant abutment. The environment is shown in broken lines and forms no part of the design.
FIGS. 50-56 illustrates an eighth embodiment of the dental implant abutment. The environment is shown in broken lines and forms no part of the design. Elements of the abutment that form no part of the design of the eighth embodiment are shown in dashed lines.
FIGS. 57-63 illustrate a ninth embodiment of the dental implant abutment. The environment is shown in broken lines and forms no part of the design. Elements of the abutment that form no part of the design of the ninth embodiment are shown in dashed lines.
The nine embodiments of the dental implant abutment illustrated in FIGS. 1-63 are preferred for use on one side of the mouth. Nine further embodiments of the dental implant abutment that are preferred for use on the other side of the mouth are mirror images of the nine embodiments illustrated in FIGS. 1-63. These nine additional embodiments are also intended to fall within the scope of the claim. However, since they are mirror images, they are not separaetly illustrated.
