Q

on a first visit, a small amount of enamel is removed from the teeth, and an impression is taken. The impression is used to make the new veneer cover, and during a second visit, this new covering is applied.

17
Q

artificial substitute for the natural crown, with the use of white porcelain.

A

Dental crown

18
Q

crown covers the entire tooth’s natural crown area

A

Full crown

19
Q

crown covers 3 surfaces of the tooth

A

Three quarter

20
Q

crown includes a metal pin inserted into the root to secure retention

A

Dowel

21
Q

crown is placed over the anterior tooth like a “jacket”

A

Jacket

22
Q

commonly used to make crowns. The top white porcelain layer is fused to the under-layer of gold or metal

A

PFM (porcelain fused to metal):

23
Q

crown is a full porcelain crown, built without the use of metals

A

Procera crown

24
Q

The amount of gingiva is either surgically reduced, or teeth are treated to give the gingivae a reduced appearance:

A

Gingival reduction

25
Q

surgically shaping the gingivae to remove unwanted surplus of gingival tissue

A

Gingival contouring

26
Q

exposing more tooth structure, providing the appearance of reduced gingivae

A

Crown lengthening

27
Q

surgically excising (cutting) tissue over the crown, to expose the tooth

A

Exposing un-erupted teeth

28
Q

Abnormal gingival tissue can be reconstructed or repaired with the addition of more tissue, to provide the appearance of more gingiva:

A

Gingival augmentation

29
Q

extracting oral or palatal (palat-al) tissue and ‘relocating’ it to the required gingival area

A

Soft tissue grafting

30
Q

adding to the gingival tissue that fills the spaces between the teeth

A

Interdental augmentation

31
Q

surgical correction of gingivae that is atrophied (shrunk/shortened/recessed) to the point where the tooth’s apex may be seen

A

Gingival recession repair

32
Q

Replacing the gingiva over exposed roots. Similar to repairing gingival recession

A

Covering exposed roots

33
Q

eliminating the space between the gingiva and tooth surface

A

Pocket depth reduction

34
Q

labial, lingual or buccal sulci are deepened

A

Ridge extension or augmentation

35
Q

The dental implant and the bone connect permanently in a process called

A

osseointegration

36
Q

the implant is positioned ‘within the bone’.

A

Endosseous

37
Q

flat metal plate is screwed onto narrow portions of the jaw

A

Plate form

38
Q

metal frame is placed ‘under the periosteum’, and atop the mandible. The periosteum (peri-oste-um) is a thick membrane that surrounds and covers bone

A

Subperiosteal

39
Q

plate is positioned ‘through and beyond the bone’ with the post extending through the gingiva

A

Transosteal or endosteal
