Q

What is osteointegration? (4)

A
  1. Direct attachment or connection of osseous tissue to an inert, alloplastic material
    without intervening connective tissue
  2. Direct connection of exogenous materials’ and the host bone tissues, without intervening fibrous connective tissue present
  3. Interface between alloplastic materials and
    bone
  4. Thanks to titanium oxide

Q

Important features for implant platform? (3)

A

◦ Diameter.
◦ Type (internal Vs external).
◦ Compatibility between implant systems.

22
Q

What is the male part of an implant?

A

usually a hexagon

23
Q

Implants: What is the external connection?

A

Implant has a male part (usually a hexagon) that faces a female part at the abutment

24
Q

Implants: What is the internal connection?

A

female part that faces a male

part at the abutment

25
Q

Which implant brands have both internal and external connections? (2)

A

Nobel Biocare,

3i

26
Q

Implants: which connection was first used?

A

external

27
Q

Implants: What are the characteristics of external connection?(5)

A
  • Allows high relative inclination between implants.
  • Less contact surface at the platform:
    ◦ More screw loosenings.
    ◦ More screw fractures.
    ◦ More micromovements.
28
Q

Implants: What are the characteristics of internal connection?(5)

A
  • if implants are inclined = difficult to make the prosthesis
  • More contact surface at the platform:
    ◦ Fewer screw loosenings.
    ◦ Fewer screw fractures.
    ◦ Fewer micromovements.
  • May weaken the implant if it´s a narrow one
29
Q

Prosthetic components are always fitted to the….

A

platform

30
Q

When do we use the implant mount/carrier?

A

during placement of the implant

31
Q

How do we attach the implant mount/carrier? (2)

A

attached to a wrench or a contra-angled hand piece

32
Q

What brands attach implants directly without any mount?

A

Nobel external connection

33
Q

Implants: How do we use the cover/closure screw?

A
  • Screwed over the implant to close the platform
    while the bone is healing around it.
  • It´s very short.
34
Q

How do we use a cover/closure screw for 2 stage implants?

A

◦ Soft tissue closes over the implant.
◦ A second surgical procedure performed to make the implant emerge over the
gingiva and connect it to the denture

35
Q

Implants: What is the healing abutment? (2)

A
  • tall abutment that prevents gingiva from closing over the implant, so it heals around it
  • prevents need for a second surgery
36
Q

Implants: What are the types of healing abutments? (2)

A

◦ Prefabricated: different diameters and heights.

◦ Custom-made.

37
Q

Implants: What do we use transfer/impression copings for?

A

to transfer the spatial location of the implant relative to adjacent tissues to the cast

38
Q

Implants: what are the types of transfer/impression copings? (2)

A

◦ Open tray copings.

◦ Closed tray copings.

39
Q

Implants: what are prosthetic abutments?

A

Connect the implant to the prosthesis

40
Q

What is torque? (2)

A
  • force that causes rotation
  • Is the moment of force applied to the screw that
    retains an abutment or a denture.
41
Q

How do we measure torque?

A
  • Measured in Ncm (not N per cm) with a torque wrench.
42
Q

What is preload?

A
  • Axial force in the neck of the screw, which is between the first mating thread and the head of the screw.
  • This tensile force clamps the abutment to the
    implant.
43
Q

Implants: what must occur for preload to be effective? (2)

A

the level of preload < the elastic limit (or proof load)
- ex. the maximum load at which NO PERMANENT DEFORMATION occurs, of the screw material and greater than any force applied by biting action

44
Q

Why must every screw be screwed at a very precise torque?

A

For the preload to be effective (less than the elastic limit/proof load)

45
Q

What are the types of implants? (4)

A
  • fixed
  • removable
  • screw
  • cemented
46
Q

Misch’s classification FP1?

A

Fixed prosthesis similar to natural teeth

47
Q

Misch’s classification FP2?

A

Fixed prosthesis with long teeth

48
Q

Misch’s classification FP3?

A

Fixed denture that restores gingival tissue

49
Q

Misch’s classification RP4?

A

Implant supported-implant retained removable

prosthesis

50
Q

Misch’s classification RP5?

A

Implant retained-tissue supported removable

prosthesis
