8/9 - Implant Fundamentals, Implant Components Flashcards
what is a prosthetic device made of alloplastic material(s) implanted into the oral tissues beneath the mucosal or/and periosteal layer, and on/or within bone to provide retention and support for a fixed or removable dental prosthesis
dental implant
what is the 2nd oldest discipline in dentistry after exodontia
implant dentistry
what are the different mechanisms of fixation
- mucosal insert
- eposteal
- transosteal
- endosteal
what method of fixation:
any metal form attached to tissue surface of removable dental prosthesis that mechanically engages undercuts of a surgically prepared MUCOSAL site
mucusol insert
what method of fixation:
any dental implant receives primary support by means of RESTING ON BONE
eposteal
what mechanism of fixation does a subperiosteal implant use
eposteal
what method of fixation:
dental implant PENETRATES BOTH CORTICAL PLATES and passes thru full thickness of alveolar bone
transosteal
what method of fixation:
device placed INTO ALVEOLAR and/or basal bone of mandible or maxilla and TRANSECTING ONLY 1 CORTICAL PLATE
endosteal
what method of fixation do needle implants use
endosteal
what method of fixation do plate form/blade implants use
endosteal
what method of fixation do root form implants use
endosteal
what are the type of implants used today? examples?
root form - basket type, cylinder type, and lew screw
presence of a layer intervening fibrous CT between dental implant and adjacent bone is indicative of what
failed osseointegration (creates a pseudo-ligament)
what is the goal when placing implants
direct contact between bone and implant
what materials are used in implants
- aluminum oxide
- vitreous carbon
- silver
- brass
- chromium cobalt
what is a term coined by Branemark
osseointegration
what is a direct attachment of osseous tissue to an inert, alloplastic material w/o intervening CT
osseointegration
what is the bone implant interface
- implant surface (titanium)
- GAG (w/ chondroitin sulfate)
- mineralized matrix (no cellular elements)
- unmineralized fibrous matrix (osteoblasts)
- mineralized bone
how is osseoinegration achieved via the Branemark Era in 1952?
- pure titanium fixture
- surgical sterility
- atraumatic bone prep
- intimate physical contact
- sequestration for sufficient time
what are the guidelines for successful implant dentistry per Toronto Conference 1982
biomaterials, implant design, biomechanical factors, surface characteristics, health and bone quality, and surgical technique
why is titanium the preffered implant material
- biocompatible
- mechanically compatible
- morphologically compatible
what are the biocompatible characteristics of titanium
- resistant to corrosion
- self-passivating
- bio-inert
what does it mean that titanium is self-passivating
titatnium oxide layer formed on surface when exposed to atmosphere. TiO2 strnogly adhered to titanium surface, attracts proteins from extracellular fluid
what does it mean that titanium is bioinert
non-toxic to cells and per-implant tissues
