Restorative Implant Dentistry I Flashcards
% of 50-59yo in US w single or multiple posterior edentulous spaces bordered by natural teeth:
30%
Single tooth replacement in post region, % annual dental care reimbursment:
7%
5 options for post single tooth missing:
RDP, FDP, Untreated, resin-bonded, implant
TF? 10y survival rate of teeth adjacent to an RPD is lower than that of an RPD or untreated.
T FDP: 92%, Untreated: 81%, RDP: 56% 10y survival
15y survival rate for FDP:
74%
50% mean life span of FDP:
9.6y
10y and 15y survival rates of FDPs:
74%, 50%
10y survival of post teeth adjacent to FDP:
92%
10y survival of post teeth adjacent to edentulous arae:
81%
10y survival of post teeth adjacent to RDP:
56%
Most common problem with Resin-bonded posterior single tooth prosthesis:
debonding
debonding rate, resin-bonded posterior single tooth prosthesis in 3y:
50%
Disadv of resin-bonded posterior single tooth prosthesis:
High debond rate, inconvenient (pt and dr), decay on abutment teeth
10y urvival rate of posterior single tooth implant:
97-100% (this included maxillary posterior, though, which are far more likely to fail than mandibular, right?)
Disavd to implants:
high initial cost, surgical risk
Adv of single tooth implants:
No need to splint adjacent teeth, psychological need, no prep of adjacent teeth, hygiene (no floss or pontic), dec cold/ contact sensitivity, esthetics, maintains bone, dec adjacent tooth loss
% dec in bone width 3y after extraction:
30%
TF? An implant slows the bone remodelling process.
T
Disadv of implant placement:
pt compliance, time of tx, consequence of failure, cost, special training/equip
Endossous root form implant complications:
surgical, implant loss, bone loss, soft tissue, mech, esthetic/ phonetic, nonoptimal placement
If implant is placed too close to nerve:
numbness, damage
If implant hits adjacent tooth:
root resorption
If lingual bone is perforated w an implant:
may perforate the artery, life threatening
What type of complication is bone loss after implant placement?
biological
