Two-stage surgery
30
A surgical protocol consisting of placing an implant in bone and leaving it in contact with the oral environment during the healing process, thus eliminating a second surgical procedure
One-stage surgery
31

Immediate implant placement
32
The time of applying occlusal forces (like an implant crown) to a dental implant after its initial placement
Loading
33
Restoration after 3-6 months
Conventional loading
34
Restoration at the time of implant placement
Immediate loading
35
Restoration after 2-3 weeks
Early loading
36
Restoration after 6-12 months
Delayed loading
37
The failure of a dental implant after osseointegration has been established (peri-implantitis)
Late implant failure
38
The failure of a dental implant due to the failure to establish osseointegration
Early implant failure
39
The pressure exerted through the soft tissue on a submerged (buried) dental implant (ex: pt wearing a partial denture while implant is healing)
Transmucosal loading
40
A force that produces or tends to produce rotation or torsion
Torque
41
A measurement of an instrument capacity to continue to rotate under resistance to rotation
Torque
42
What are the units for torque?
Newton centimeters (Ncm)
43
An instrument, manual or electronic, used to apply a torque
Torque wrench
44
A restoration that is not removable by the patient
Fixed prosthesis
45
Fixed prosthesis designed to restore and enhance esthetics, stabilization, and/ or function for a limited time
Interim prosthesis/restoration
46

48
Technique for total rehabilitation of the edentulous patient placing four implants in either arch where the distal-most implants are placed in a tilted position to increase support

49
The portion of a dental implant or a dental implant component that serves to support and/ or retain a prosthesis. It may consist of one or more pieces
Abutment
50
Abutment used for the fabrication of an interim restoration. It could be cemented or screw-retained
Temporary abutment
51
A mechanical device for the fixation, retention, and stabilization of a dental prosthesis. Consists of one or more parts, made of titanium, gold or plastic
