Implants Flashcards
Osseointegration
The direct attachment or connection of vital osseous tissue to the surface of an implant without intervening CT
Implants cant tolerate ___forces
Horizontal
_____bone implant contact due to trabecular bone
60%
Implants and teeth may have
Different microbiota
Barrier epithelium
2 mm long
Zone of connective tissue
1-1.5 mm high
Collagen fiber bundles
Parallel to implant surface no actual attachment
Zone that is adjacent to implant surface is rich
From fibroblast but poor from blood vessels
Zone that is lateral direction and continuous with other zone is
Fewer fibroblasts but is rich in collagen fibers and blood vessels
Blood supply comes from
Supraperiosteal blood vessels
Since no blood from PDL chances of fighting bacteria
Is weaker bacterial challenge and slower healing time
Peri-Implant Mucositis
Reversible Inflammation of the mucosa surrounding the implant
- Presence of bacterial plaque and calculus
- Edema redness hyperplasia
- BOP
- Exudate/pus
- no radiologic evidence of bone
Peri-Implantitis
Inflammatory reactions associated with loss of supporting bone around an implant in function
Peri-Implantitis lesions are characterized by
The presence of numerous neutrophils in the tissues surrounding the implant
There is direct contact between plaque on the implant and
Inflamed CT
