6
Q
shapes of implants
A
cylindrical and tapered
7
Q
cylindrical shaped implants
A
- Increased Surface Area
- Greater Force Transfer
- Most Common Design
8
Q
conical shaped implants
A
- Complex osteotomy sites
- Root proximity
- Bone concavity
9
Q
platform widths
A
std btwn 3.5-4.5mm
10
Q
microgap
A
- Inflammatory cell infiltrate was consistently present at the level of the interface between the two components, the bone crest was consistently located 1-1.5 mm
apical of the microgap. - Inflammatory Infiltrate was due to bacterial contamination
11
Q
platform switching
A
Platform switching is the concept of placing an narrower abutment on the wider implant to preserve
alveolar bone levels at the crest of a dental implant
12
Q
how does platform switiching work
A
It reduces per-implant bone resorption at the bone crest and maintains the supracrestal attachment
* Increases distance of implant-abutment junction from the crestal bone
* Limits possible interface of bone with micro-movements
* Shifts the inflammatory cell infiltrate inward and away from the adjacent crestal bone
13
Q
surface properties of implants
why would these be used?
A
Surface characteristic and roughness
Surface chemistry and surface free energy (SFE)
Enhance cell adhesion to get better osseointegration
14
Q
ways to alter surface roughness
A
Roughness (Macro & Micro):
* Texture
* Machined
Substractive:
* Sandblast
* Acid-etch
Additive:
* Oxidation
* Coating
15
Q
Smooth vs Rough Surfaces
A
moderately rough surfasces provided best osseointegration
16
Q
issues with increasing roughness
A
the rougher the implant, the higher its’ Sa value
(in um), the easier for bacterial adhesion, the less efficacy of biofilm treatments
17
Q
does microbial colonization always occur on implants based on roughness?
A
Microbial adhesion can occur on any implant surface,
regardless of the degree of surface roughness
18
Q
Surface Chemistry And Surface Free Energy (SFE)
A
- SFE is the interaction between the force of cohesion and the force of the adhesion that determines whether or not wetting occurs.
19
Q
testing SFE
A
- Sessile drop technique
- Different material, implant design with characteristics contribute to the SFE and cell/ bacterial adhesion.
20
Q
factors of cell and bac adhesion to implant
A
21

2mm from the IAN is recommended.
24
Q

A
CT, worst is PA
25
Incisive Canal implant considerations
Size and location are Important, may even graft canal for more bone
26
Maxillary Sinus/Nasal Cavity for implants
direct vs indirect lifting
Sinus augmentation may be needed
Direct sinus lifting: less than 4mm residual bone height
Indirect sinus lifting: more than 4mm residual bone heigh
27
Lingual Undercut and implants
* Perforating the lingual plate during preparation of the implant site can result in extensive and even life threatening bleeding.
* Proper planning and considering reflect a lingual flap to visualize the ridge
28
osseointegration
A direct functional and structural connection
between living bone and the implant surface
29
requirements of successful osseointegration
The stability of the bone at the time of implant
placement is critical to the successful osseointegration
Quantity: related to the degree of bone loss or bone resorption present
* Quality: related to the degree of bone density present
30
classes of bone quantitiy for implants
31
classes of bone quality for implants
2 and 3 are best
32
type 1 bone quality
Type 1: hard and dense like oak wood (D1)
* Less blood supply than other types (compact bone)
* Takes longer for an implant to integrate
* Found in the mandible
33
type 2 bone quality
Type 2: consistency of pine wood (D2)
* Thick layer of compact bone surrounds a core of
dense, trabecular bone
34
type 3 bone quality
Type 3: consistency of balsa wood (D3)
* Thin layer of cortical bone surrounds a core of
dense trabecular bone
35

Safety/ Function/ Value/ Esthetics
38
space req for implants in MD deminsion
* At least 1.5 mm between teeth and implant
* At least 3 mm between 2 adjacent implants
39
results of lack of space btwn implants
can’t restore, no access to clean, bone loss, peri-implantitis
40
BL deminsion implant considerations
* Significantly greater resorption and gingival recession when the ridge width < 2 mm.
* Anterior region: at least 2 mm of buccal bone thickness
* Posterior region: at least 1mm buccal bone and 1mm lingual bone thickness is acceptable
41
coronal apical deminsions for implants
* 3-4mm from adjacent CEJ
* It is recommended to place bone level implants subcrestally
42
classes of ridge atrophy
| hard tissue management
* Ridge atrophies: horizontal and vertical
* Siebert Classification:
* Class I: buccolingual loss of tissue (horizontal)
* Class II: apicocoronal loss of tissue (vertical)
* Class III: both loss of tissue
43
options for ridge augmentation for implant placement
* Ridge augmentation for atrophic bony ridge
* Bone block technique vs particulate bone graft
* Guided Bone regeneration (GBR): A surgical procedure that uses barrier membranes with bone grafts to augment atrophic bony ridge
* Sinus augmentation: direct/indirect
44
complications of ridge augmentation:
healing?
postop?
tx time?
* Longer healing time: 3-12 months to be ready for implant placement, depending on the augmented volume, the graft material and individual healing ability.
* Post-op complications: membrane exposure, infection, sinus membrane perforation...etc.
* Longer expected treatment time line
45
Rationales for RIDGE PRESERVATION:
* Maintain? esthetics?
* Simplify?
* Ready for implant placement at?
* Maintain stable ridge volume to optimize functional and esthetic outcomes (decreased atrophy)
* Simplify treatment procedures following the ridge preservation
* Ready for implant placement at 3-6 months
46
* Peri-implant mucosa
* The soft tissue surrounding
dental implants
47
* Transmucosal attachment of implants
* A mucosal seal should prevent bacterial products reaching the bone, ensuring the osteointegration
48
The height of the peri- implant supracrestal soft tissue (PST) includes:
sulcular epithelium, junctional epithelium and supracrestal connective tissue
49
Supracrestal tissue attachment for implants
Supracrestal tissue attachment is roughly 3 mm
(JE 1.88 mm + CT 1.05 mm =2.93 mm)
50
soft tissue thickness needed to prevent dihesence in implants
* Soft tissue thickness greater than 2 mm is necessary to prevent peri- implant soft tissue dehiscence
51
* A minimum of ? mm of KT is necessary to facilitate
proper oral hygiene for peri- implant health
* A minimum of 2 mm of KT
is necessary to facilitate
proper oral hygiene for peri-
implant health
52
graft to gain KT?
free gingival graft
53
graft to gain thickness?
conn tissue graft
54
tooth vs implant perio support
* contact w bone?
* Peri-implant fibers?
* Ankylosis?
* Blood supply?
* inflammatory response?
* Direct bone to implant contact (osseointegration)
* Peri-implant fibers form parallel cuff in a oriented longitudinal direction
* Ankylosis, higher stress at the neck of the screw/implant
* Blood supply by terminal branches of large vessels from periosteum, fewer capillaries.
* Stronger inflammatory response (in implant)
55
peri implant fibers:
* Peri-implant fibers form?
* Epithelial cells attached by?
* Collagen fibers insertion?
* Prevents?
* Peri-implant fibers form parallel cuff in a oriented longitudinal direction
* Epithelial cells attached by hemidesmosomes
* Collagen fibers do not insert into the implant but
creates a cuff around the implant creating a mucosal seal
* Prevents bacterial invasion
56
inflammation in implants
* Stronger inflammatory response
* Similar to periodontitis, peri-implantitis lesion is
dominated by plasma cells and lymphocytes but
characterized by a larger proportion of PMNs and macrophages
* Area proportions, numbers and densities of
plasma cells, macrophages and neutrophils are
higher in peri-implantitis
57
Peri-implant health
Absence of erythema, bleeding on probing, swelling and suppuration
58
Peri-implant mucositis
An inflammation in absences of continuous marginal peri- implant bone loss. The clinical sign of inflammation is bleeding on probing. Additional signs may include erythema, swelling, and suppuration.
59
Peri-implantitis
A pathological condition occurring in tissues around dental implants, characterized by inflammation in the peri-implant mucosa and **progressive loss of supporting bone**. Clinical sign of inflammation is detected by bleeding on probings, while progressive bone loss is identified on radiographs
60
Prevalence of peri-implant mucositis and implantitis
* 43% for peri-implant mucositis and 22% for peri-implantitis at subject level
* 29.5% for peri-implant mucositis and 9.3%-22.1% for peri-implantitis at implant level
61
Diagnosis of implant conditions
