Dx and Tx Planning/Implant Placement Flashcards
1
Q
Factors for Implant Tx Planning
A
- Restorative Space
- Molar Tipping
- Infection
- Gingival biotype
- Alveolar Bone (Quality and Quantity)
- Adjacent Structures
- Number of Implants
2
Q
Restorative Space dimensions for implant
A
- Mesiodistal space
- must know avg tooth widths
- Implant: Adjacent Tooth: 1.5 mm (1.5-2 mm)
- Implant: Implant: 3 mm
- Occlusogingivally
- 10 mm (6-10 mm)
3
Q
Implant factors: Molar Tipping
A
- ≤ 25 °
- fixed with Ortho or enameloplasty
- If not fixed
- Black triangle (poor esthetics)
- Foot trap
- Periodontal inflammation
- periodontitis
4
Q
Implant Factors: Gingival Biotype
A
- Thicker= better
- Thin Biotype
- place more apical & lingual
- use non-metallic abutment→ prevents grey shadow
5
Q
Existing Infection
A
- Remove before implant placement
- adjacent teeth
- Perio Infection or inflammation
- peri-apical inflammation
- effects healing & long term success & survival
6
Q
Implant factors: Alveolar Bone
A
-
Quality= Bone Density (D1, D2, D3, D4)
- affects initial stability of implant → osseointegration
-
Quantity= Alveolar Ridge Resorption
- 2 mm Lingual & Buccal to implant
7
Q
Bone Density
A
- affects initial stability of implant → osseointegration
- D1 (most dense)
- Dense cortical bone
- marrow spaces barely visible
- anterior mandible
- very difficult to drill
- Dense cortical bone
- D2
- Thick porous cortical bone
- coarse trabecular bone
- anterior & posterior Mandible
- anterior Maxilla
- Thick porous cortical bone
- D3
- Thin porous cortical bone
- fine trabecular bone
- Anterior & posterior maxilla
- Posterior Mandible
- Thin porous cortical bone
- D4 (least dense)
- fine trabecular bone (primarily)
- very thin cortical bone
- posterior maxilla
- Big marrow spaces
- poor initial stability of implant
- fine trabecular bone (primarily)
8
Q
Alveolar Ridge Resorption
A
- 2 mm Buccal & Lingual to Implant
- Ridge Classification
- Normal → Minimal resorption
- Class 1 → Only Faciolingual resorption (Horizontal)
- normal height
- Class 2 → Only Vertical resorption
- normal width
- Class 3 → Both
- The greater the Loss of Bone Height→ Need prosthetic gingiva
9
Q
Lip Effect
A
Hides non-esthetic parts of implant/gingiva
10
Q
Bone Graft
A
- Clinical & radiographic exam to determine if bone graft is needed
- Graft options:
- Ridge Augmentation (bone resorption)
- Horizontal Ridge Augmentation=Better success (vs vertical)
- Sinus Lift (Pneumitization)
- Ridge Augmentation (bone resorption)
- Graft options:
11
Q
Adjacent Structures
A
- IAN
- 2 mm away
- Minimum= 1mm
- Mental Foramen
- 4 mm away
- Sinuses
- 2 mm away
- Minimum= 1 mm
12
Q
Criteria for Number of Implants
A
Criteria:
- Occlusal Forces: Avoid Overloading
- Bruxism (Parafunctional habits) → more implants
- posterior placed implants → ⇡ occlusal forces
- “closer to the joint”
- Prosthetic type (removable vs fixed)
- Removable
- less implants
- mandibular overdenture → 1 implants at canine
- Maxillary overdenture → 4 implants; canine & 2nd premolar
- Removable
- Segmented vs one piece prosthesis
- Segmented→ more implants
- implant at each end
- saves prosthesis if it breaks
- implant at each end
- Segmented→ more implants
13
Q
Required Diagnostics needed to tx plan a implant case
A
- Med hx
- Diagnostic cast mounts
- checks for space
- Diagnostic wax up
- esthetics
- Periodontal status
- prognosis
- Radiographs
- bone quality/prognosis
14
Q
Indications vs Contraindications for Implant
A
- Indications
- 1.5 - 2mm from adjacent teeth
- 3 mm from adjacent teeth
- 1 mm of lingual & buccal bone around implants
- 2 mm from IAN
- 5 mm bone height
- implant is embedded 5 mm
- 5 mm anterior to Mental Foramen
- Contraindications:
- Active Periodontal disease
- Active Gingival Inflammation
- Poor bone height & quality (density)
15
Q
Implant placement: Single vs multiple implants
(Where are Implants placed)
A
- Single implant
- center of restoration
- Multiple implants
- center of proposed retainer
