Q

Considerations when using short implants

A
  1. increase width —>increase SA
  2. Use 2 stage approach
  3. Avoid as single implants in free end

Q

Does width of implant matter

A

Small diameters are equally as successful.
Narrow diameter have similar 1-3 year survival rates as regular diameter

Some studies indicate that wider implants are better however, smaller diameters work well in many situations
- consider biomechanical risks
- consider restorative needs (cervical diameter)
- consider amount of bone available MD and BL

Q

Is biologic width different around teeth vs implants

A

Teeth:
- Garguilo et al 1961 JE 0.97 and CT 1.07 = 2.04mm
Implants:
-Tomasi 2014 JE 1.9 CT 1.7 = 3-4mm

** larger around implants

Q

Do implants need KT?

A

Generally, presence of KT around implants is associated with better implant health

Some studies suggest that implants without KT have healthy peri implant tissues as long as patients have good OH

Thoma et al 2018 (SR)
- improvements in BI and increased marginal bone levels.

Q

Implant failures terminology

A

Early implant failure: lack of initial integration or presence of infection
Late implant failure: occurs after initial osseointegration, physiological remodelling, and loading
Ailing: biological complications, soft tissue problems, not supporting bone problems
Failing: progressive loss of supporting bone but clinically immobile
Failed: clinically mobile

18
Q

Reasons for implant failure

A
  1. Type IV bone
  2. Lack of KT, poor OH, occlusal overload, malposition
  3. Bone overheating, peri implantitis
  4. Excess cement
  5. History of periodontitis
  6. Diabetes
  7. Former failed site
  8. Experience
  9. PPI and SSRIs
19
Q

Platform switching

A

The concept refers to placing screwed or friction fit restorative abutments of narrower diameter on implants of wider diameter, rather than placing abutments of similar diameters, this puts the bone further away from the inflammatory cell infiltrate

-better long term preservation of marginal bone
-less vertical bone loss
- minimal bone loss
- long term peri implant health

20
Q

Types of implant abutment crestal connections

A
  1. butt joint
  2. platform switched
  3. no interface (tissue level or one body)
21
Q

Does pulpal status of adjacent teeth or former teeth affect implants?

A

Retrograde peri implantitis, higher implant failure rates in sites with a history of endo tx and or periapical lesions

** treated active sources of infection and inflammation in adjacent teeth prior to implant placement

22
Q

How hot can bone get without causing irreversible damage?

A

44deg- complete repair
47 deg partial bone necrosi

23
Q

Name technical implant problems

A
  1. Implant fracture
  2. Tooth intrusion
  3. Intrusion of teeth with telescopic crowns
  4. Cement bonded breakdown
  5. Abutment tooth fracture
  6. Abutment screw loosening
  7. Fracturing of vaneers
  8. Prosthesis fracture
24
Q

Name biological complicatons

A
  1. Peri implantitis
  2. Endodontic problems
  3. Loss of an abutment tooth
  4. Loss of an implant
  5. Caries
  6. Root fracture
25
Q

Should implants be connected to teeth?

A

They can be but should be avoided.

26
Q

Occlusal overload and implants

A

peri implant bone loss
mechanical failure of prosthesis
lateral forces and bruxism
lone standing abutments- higher failure rates
increasing implant number and width- load distribution

Animal studies show in the absence of inflammation no association with peri implant tissue breakdown

27
Q

How to reduce occlusal overload

A

1.reducing cantilever
2.increasing implant number
3.increasing point contacts
4.monitor parafunctional habits
5.narrowing occlusal table
6.decreasing cuspal inclines
7.progressive lading in pts with 8.poor bone quality

28
Q

Occlusal guidelines

A

Full arch fixed prosthesis= bilateral balanced occlusion with opposing complete denture
Group function or mutually protected occlusion with shallow anterior guidance when opposing natural dentition

Overdenture=bilateral balanced occlusion. Monoplane occlusion

Posterior fixed prosthesis= anterior guidance with natural dentition. Group function with compromised canines.

Single implant= anterior or lateral guidance with natural dentition. Light contact at heavy bite and no contact at light bite. Increased proximal contacts

29
Q

Can dehiscence present at implant placement be effectively treated with GBR?

A

yes

30
Q

Are dental implants placed in regenerated bone successful?

A

yes, but wait 6m
94-96% success
most data says same success as native bone

31
Q

Implant placement timing

A

Type 1= immediate
Type 2= Early placement with soft tissue healing (4-8weeks)
Type 3= Early placement with partial bone healing (12-16 weeks)
Type 4= Late placement (>6months)

32
Q

How much ISQ for immediate loading

A

60-65

33
Q

What does ISQ stand for

A

Implant stability quotient

34
Q

Primary and secondary stability

A

Primary stability- achieved at time of placement
Secondary stability- achieved over time with healing

Primary/mechanical stability leads to more efficient achievement of secondary/biologic stability
But high insertion torque may negatively impact bone level stability

35
Q

Immediate Loading

A

Immediate -within 1 week
Early- 1 week to 2 months
Delayed- >2months

  • no convincing evidence of clinically significant different with implant, prosthesis failure or bone loss with different loading times.

Immediate loading is a practical viable method

36
Q

Can implants be used for orthodontic anchorage

A

yes

37
Q

Survival of transitional implants

A

90% +

38
Q

Any difference in guided surgery (bone, tooth , mucosa)

A

Bone- significantly greater deviation in angle, entry point and apex compared to tooth supported guides

Mucosa- significantly lower deviation in angle, entry point and apex compared to bone supported

No significant differences for any of the outcome measures between mucosa and tooth supported guides.

39
Q

Advantages of flapless surgery

A

decreased:
- pain
-analgesic,
-swelling
- chair time
-risk of hemorrhage
-time adapting temp restoration

increase:
- pt satisfaction

40
Q

Success rate of implants, root amputations and endo tx differ?

A

NO
implants cost more than keeping teeth

41
Q

SPTs for implants- protocol

A

minimum of every 5-6m
