Restorative Implant Dentistry II Flashcards
Options for anterior single tooth replacement:
Traditional, resin bonded, OR cantilever FDP (for missing lateral incisor), removable, acid-etched, implant
When are cantilevered FDP’as used?
for missing lateral incisors
4yr success rate of Max single tooth implants:
97%
8ys survival rate of Max single tooth implants:
97.5% (? Greater than 4y?)
Influencing factor of tx for Max single tooth implants:
age, compliance, fear, esthetics, biologic complications (damage to adjacent teeth), pt availability, cost, open contact bw implant & adjacent teeth
Contributing factors to Max anterior single tooth replacement:
craniofacial growth, transeptal fibers, occlusal forces, interproximal wear(?), contact surfaces (size, location) root angulation, crown ht, occlusal relationship, MD space at crown and bone level, available bone ht/ BL width, transitional prosthesis, soft tissue drape type-surrounding gingival tissues
When is age a large factor when decided to place an implant:
further growth, esp. continuous eruption of adjacent teeth, esp pts w short or long face
gingiva type that reacts to disease w pocket formation and infrabony defect formation
Thick
gingiva w min attached gingiva:
thin
thick gingiva:
flat, bony architecture, dense, fibrotic, lots of attached gingiva, thick underlying osseous form, resistant to acute trauma, reacts to disease w pocket formation and infrabony defect formation
Thin gingiva:
scalloped soft tissue and bony architecture, delicate, friable, min attached gingiva, thin underlying bone characterized by dehiscence and fenestration, reacts to insults & disease w gingival recession
High-scalloed gingiva is characterized as:
thin, high esthetic risk
Gingival esthetic risk factors:
reduced IS, heavy smoker, high lip line, high-scalloped, thin gingiva, triangular shaped crowns, acute infection, 7+mm to contact point, restored adjacent teeth, 2+ missing teeth, soft-tissue defect, vertical bone deficiency
Crown shape that is low risk for esthetic complications;
rectangular
Medium esthetic risk pts:
Light smoker, medium lip line, medium-scalloped, meduium-thick, chronic infection at implant site, 5.5 to 6.5mm to contact point, less than 7mm for 1 tooth, less than 5.5mm for 1 tooth, horizontal bone deficiency
