Q

Adv of cement retained crowns?

A

Ideal aesthetics

18
Q

What is a screw retained implant?

A

Abutment integrated into crown - screw via crown

19
Q

Adv of screw retained crowns?

A

Less risk peri-implantitis

20
Q

Issue w/ screw retained crowns?

A

Aesthetics reduced

21
Q

Why can implants fail?

A

Failure osseointergrate

Peri-implantitis

22
Q

Different types implant retained bridges?

A

Multi-unit
Fixture level screw
Cement retained

23
Q

Different ways can combine dentures and implants?

A

Locator abutment
Ball attachments
Milled bars
Magnets

24
Q

Adv and disadv of locator abutment dentures?

A

Adv: stability, can be removed for OHI

Disadv: locator will wear and need replacing

25
Q

Adv of milled bars > locator abutment?

A

Better stability and retention

26
Q

Issue w/ milled bar retained dentures?

A

Need 4 implants in mandible (for locator can use 2)

27
Q

When can magnets be used in denture implant provision?

A

If lack OVD

Compensate poor angulation

28
Q

Two types of incisions done in implants?

A

Papilla sparing = sclar

Sulcual incision

29
Q

What is sclar incision?

A

Scar hiding at mucogingival junction

Cut along crest of gum w/ reliving incision sparing papilla

30
Q

Adv sclar incision?

A

Avoid papilla recession

31
Q

What is a sulcual incision

A

Crestall incsion involving papilla

32
Q

Adv sulucal incision?

A

Avoids scarring - lack relieving incision

33
Q

Disadv sulucal incisor?

A

Risk papilla recession

Risk gingival recession

34
Q

How chose flap design when providing implants?

A

Smile line

35
Q

What other factors need to consider when providing implants?

A

Width of implant - choice implant diameter affect abutment width

36
Q

What can be placed while allowing implant to heal?

A

Cover screw

Healing abutment

37
Q

When is a cover screw a good option?

A

Gingival covers over - good maximal healing/ diabetics

Will have to use healing abutment as second stand to allow impression

38
Q

When are healing abutments a good options?

A

Transmucosal - gingival heal as collar around abutment

39
Q

How does titanium implant differ to bulk material?

A

Surface is titanium oxide

40
Q

What properties make titanium good implant?

A

Low corrosion
Biocompatible
Passivating surface

41
Q

Example synthetic bone graft substitute?

A

Hydroxyapatite

42
Q

Most commonly used membrane GTR/GBR?

A

Collagen
