Trauma From Implants Flashcards
T/F: Tooth mobility can be both physiological and pathological.
True
T/F: Implant mobility is always pathological.
True
What are the conventional healing times for the mandible and maxilla in implant surgery?
Mandible = three months Maxilla = six months
What is the difference between immediate, early, and late loading?
Immediate = at time of placement
Early = before conventional healing
Late = following healing
What will happen to the implant if it is in excessive occlusion?
- Porcelain fracture
- Implant to abutment loosening or fracture
- Implant fixture fracture
What can happen to the adjacent teeth if implant is in excessive occlusion?
- Increased mobility
2. Eruption/malocclusion
What are the changes in detecting thickness and force after putting in an implant?
Normal = 20 micrometers and 1-2 grams
Implant = 50-100 micrometers and 50-100 grams
T/F: Tooth extraction leads to sensory amputation.
True
T/F: Functional and well controlled loading may increase bone to implant contact.
True
T/F: 100% bone to implant surface contact is expected.
FALSE
Not possible
Occlusal trauma is a _________ etiological factor for perio disease but it can be a __________ etiological factor for peri-implant disease.
secondary; primary
Is implant length or diameter more important in reducing bone stress?
Diameter!
T/F: Lateral forces on implants should be reduced in favor of vertical forces.
True
What is the advantage to the all on four technique?
Reduces negative effects of distal cantilever
