Ch 15 Denal implants Flashcards
What are the majority of implants and What are they based on the principle of
Endosseous implants
osseointegration
Custom-made cast framework that is placed beneath the periosteum over the alveolar bone, can be used In either maxilla or mandible
Subperiosteal implant
This type of frame work rests on the jawbone and the post provide anchorage for a denture or fixed prosthesis
Subperiosteal implant
This type of implant pass through the mandible in an apico-coronal direction
Transosteal implant
This implant protrude through the gingival tissues into the mouth for prosthesis anchorage. A stabilization plate is placed along the inferior border of the mandible
Transosteal implant
This implant is limited to the mandible
Transosteal Implant
What implant come in a variety of different shapes, are placed within bone, They are broadly divided into blade and root form types?
Endosseous implants
Which type of endosseous implants are no longer used today bec it had a high incidence of complications and failure
Blade implants
What type of endosseous implants provide osseous anchorage through the formation of a lattice between the implant surface and bone, these implants are used for replacing missing teeth in pts who are partially and totally endentulous
Root-form endosseous implants
The most common type of implant seen in dental practice is what?
Root-form endosseous implants
What term was defined as a direct implant- to bone union without any intervening soft connective tissue
Osseointegration
Implant integration for osseointegration depend on what?
- Biomaterials and biocompatibility
- Implant design (length, diameter, shape, surface)
- Bone factors
- surgical factors
- loading consideration
Defined as allowing “close contact of living cells at its surface, which does not contain leachables (molecules that separate off the surface) that produce imflammation and which does not prevent growth and division of cells in culture”
Biocompatiblity
Biocompatibile materials are called what?
Biomaterials
What metal is highly reactive yet biocompatible and metal of choice in osseointegration
Titanium
What metal is unique in that an oxide layer prevents corrosion on the surface, enabling tissue integration to occur?
Titanium
What metal is light weight and has enough strength to withstand occlusal forces
Titanium
Majority of endosseous implants used today are what kind of shape
Cylindrical with a threaded surface design
Almost all implants are solid, but hollow implants are available with what?
No threads
Term loading means what?
The placement of restorations on the implants
What determines the stability of the implants
Quality of the bone
