What do you need to understand when placing an implant in an esthetic zone
Biological principles
Anatomic principles
Surgical principles
Prosthetic principles
It has been suggested that implants should be placed only after the age of __ in females and ___ in males to avoid problems caused by further skeletal growth
15
18
_____ last to grow
______ skeletally mature faster than _____
Premaxilla
Females
Males
What does some evidence show with continuous vertical growth of the maxilla?
Continuous growth after age 18 - issue not totally resolved
What is necessary to evaluate growth plate fusion ?
Wrist x ray
Lateral cephalometric radiograph
Mandible
Pattern of bone growth may bring about _____ positioning of the implant in case it is placed _____
Increase in mandibular length is limited to the ______ _____ _____ to accommodate the permanent molars
Lingual
Early
Primary second molars
What is the most ideal anatomical lip line
Low
Alveolar ridge
Adequate width
Status of mucosa
Loss of architecture of gingival and its papilla due to loss of tooth — can lead to black triangle
What type of soft tissue is more prone to recession ?
Thin and scalloped gingival margin (compared to thick and flat gingival phenotype)
Soft tissue thickness (phenotype)
Thick is more ideal !
Keratinized tissue
Minimum of 2mm KT required for implant and or tooth
Mucogingival junction symmetry
Esthetics
Presence/absence of papilla/black triangle
Tissue shaping with provisionals
Which garber class is more ideal
Garber class I
Favorable horizontal and vertical levels of both soft tissue and bone are present
Garber class I
No vertical bone loss and slight 1-2 mm horizontal bone deficiency
Garber class 2
No vertical bone loss and horizontal bone loss greater than class II (2mm)
Garber class 3
No vertical bone loss but significant horizontal loss
Crater defect/depression
Garber class 4
Sites with extensive apicocoronal (vertical) bone loss present
A significant challenge to the surgeon
Garber class 5
