Introduction To Implant Supported Prosthesis Flashcards
Classification system for partial edentulism
Prosthetic Diagnostic Index Classification (PDI)
Class 1 to Class IV
What does class 1 represent
An uncomplicated clinical situation
What does class IV represent
A complex clinical situation
Diagnostic criteria for PDI classification
Location and extent of edentulous area
Condition of the abutment teeth
Occlusal scheme
Residual ridge
Class I
Ideal or minimally compromised
Class II
Moderately compromised
Class III
Substantially compromised
Class IV
Severely compromised
Why was research for implant rehabilitation of edentulous patients conducted in the mandible
Reduced denture bearing surface of the mandible
Mobility of the tongue, pts complained of instability of denture and an inability to adapt to removable prosthesis
T/F: pts are more likely to accommodate to a maxillary denture
True
What else is found with maxillary dentures?
Esthetics are satisfactory
Greater retention, support and stability
What do implants allow us to offer
Palate less maxillary prosthesis
What are one of the major decisions to make when restoring the edentulous maxillary or mandible with implants
Restored with either removable implant supported prosthesis or fixed implant supported prosthesis
