Abstract

The invention relates to an anchoring assembly (100) for the anchoring of a dental prosthesis. The anchoring assembly comprises a plurality of dental implants (110), every one of which comprises a threaded portion (111) and an abutment (112) having a threaded hole (113), a plurality of pins (120) every one of which is configured to be mounted on one of said abutments (112) and comprises a through axial cavity (121), a plurality of blocks (130), every one of which comprises a through hole (131) configured to receive a respective pin (120), and a plurality of telescopic arms (140). The telescopic arms (140) and the blocks (130) comprise coupling means (132, 133, 143, 144) having a complementary shape and configured to define a spherical coupling. The pins (120) comprise an external thread (124) and the through holes (131) of the blocks (130) have a corresponding internal thread (134). By rotating the pins about their axes relative to the abutments it is possible to raise or lower the arms relative to the abutments and adjust their inclination until they reach a desired position. The configuration of the anchoring assembly can be locked by way of suitable glues, thereby allowing to remove the anchoring assembly and to integrate it into a dental prosthesis.
