implant Flashcards
three people who observed osseointegration
branemark, bothe and leventhal
does blade implant osseointegrate?
it may, but not predictable
what is sub periosteal and does it osseointegrate?
sits on top of bone, does not osseointegrate
original implant was what/
machine turned
roughened surface allows for what?
increased surface area for bone to implant contact
what did they measure in order to determine if roughened surface was different?
alkaline phosphatase, osteoclacin, PGE2, TGF beta 1
what does roughened surface allow?
increased stability through critical healing time, more stable throughout the whole process
additional treatment of roughened surface allows for what?
speed up healing process, but not overall stability. allows restoration process to happen earlier
zirconia formed by what process?
reductive chlorination resulting in ceramic zirconium oxide
what is thread pitch?
distance between threads
do you get connective tissue connection with implant?
no, but if do not pay attention to BW, body will make space through bone loss
what is platform switching?
placing a abutment that is smaller than the implant in order to reduce bone loss
what is platform matching?
having an abutment that is the same width as the implant
what is the weakest area in the entire implant-body abutment connection?
the hex
what are the functions of the hex?
retentive mechanism between implant body and abutment, effective anti-rotational element
screw loosening and fracture of implant more common with which type of hex?
esternal
advantages of external hex,
has been around longer, more ways to fix problems
disadvantages of external
screw loosening, rotational misfit, inadequate microbial seal
advantages of internal hex
less screw loosening, more seal, better joint strength, more platform switching options.
disadvantages of internal hex
less research, but seems to be good with what is available
crystal bone is strongest against which loading? accommodated best
compression
what is compressive forces?
push masses toward eachother
which loading is most destructive and cortical bone accommodates the worst?
shearing/sliding
diameter of implants range from what?
3-7mm
