Implant Parts and Components Flashcards
abutment and implant all in 1 piece
one piece
Is one piece or two piece more modern?
two piece
With implant design, _____ level is used only on the posterior teeth.
tissue level
With implant design, _____ level is used on the posterior and anterior teeth.
bone level
Which is used more bone or tissue level?
bone level
What is more common the internal or the external hex?
internal hex
_____ displaces the microgap away from the bone and redcues bone loss. Therefore, it is the preferred option.
platform switch
______ ______periphery flush to implants external surface.
non-platform switch
______ Used to tighten or loosen implant parts and
screws.
driver
____ ____Screwed into the implant at the time of initial
placement. Prevents bone, soft tissue and debris from getting into the implant fixture during healing.
Used when 2 stage approach is desired. Will be
covered by soft tissue during implant
osseointegration phase.
Cover screw / Closure screw / Closure cap
• Screws into the implant to facilitate tissue healing.
• Placed after implant is uncovered at 2nd stage surgery
or directly when single stage approach chosen.
Healing Abutment
• Part used for making an implant impression.
• Screwed directly into the implant or placed over
an abutment previously screwed into the implant.
Impression Coping
• Exact replica of an implant fixture. • Used to replicate the implant’s position in the
patient’s mouth and needed to fabricate the
implant prosthesis.
Implant Analog/Replica
Part that supports/retains an interim prosthesis. • Screwed into the implant.
Temporary Abutment
Part that supports/retains a definitive
prosthesis. • Screwed into the implant.
Prosthetic Abutment
______ crown:
advantages: lookd like a natural tooth. More cosmetic flexibility.
Disadvantages: cement can cause inflammation and bone loss removal options are limited.
cemented crown
___-____ crown:
Advantages:
easy access to the screw. no cement needed.
DisadvantagesL
crown may chip near access hole.
screw-retained crown
Used in combination with an implant driver to
tighten the prosthetic screw to a pre-determined
force measured in Newton-centimeters (Ncm).
torque wrench
t/f: Every implant system will require a different
torqueing force indicated by the manufacturer.
true
t/f: Torqueing of the screw is performed using both
hands: one hand holds the driver in place while the
other hand performs the torqueing by activating
the wrench’s lever up to the required value.
true
If over-torqued=
fracture
if under-torqued=
may loosen
