56
Q

Crown lengthening-

A

not enough space for the fixed prosthesis, potential violation of biologic width, to help with removable prostheses

58
Q

What is a forest plot?-

A

Forest plot is a way of charting study results. Horizontal lines show confidence interval at 95%. Vertical line marks zero effect and the dot shows effect estimate and weight for each study

59
Q

describe rationales for periodontal maintenance.

A

-tooth loss inversely proportional to PMT frequency; reduced risk of future attachment loss despite incomplete plaque removal; monitoring; plaque removal

60
Q

analyze rationale for duration and frequency of maintenance therapy.

A

-In patients with a history of periodontal disease, every 3 months, appointments around an hour long to cover everything; extend to 6 mo if they are doing well with OH or don’t have history of disease

61
Q

evaluate differences between implant and tooth periodontal maintenance.

A

-implants need just as good or better care than real teeth

62
Q

Areas of periodontal breakdown may need additional treatment.

A

–poor plaque control = no surgical treatment, clean and OHI
–single site = nonsurgical treatment
–continued inflammation = surgical treatment
–attachment loss = S/RP + antibiotics or surgery
–Increasing mobility = occlusal adjustment

63
Q

Office visits for implants-

A typical maintenance visit should include:

A

–Probe implants w/ plastic probe
–Assess soft tissue. Look for BOP and suppuration
–Examine prosthesis- May have to remove
–Occlusal exam. Look for wear, loosened screws or cylinders, broken abutments, screws or implants
–Evaluate stability Remove any plaque and calculus
–Use plastic curette, and rubber cup w/ polishing paste
–Can also irrigate w/CHX–Check/modify OH Radiographs
–Monitor bone with vertical BW or PA at least once a year

64
Q

Discuss the rationale for pre-implant surgical procedures.

A

-preserve ridge dimensions and contour when immediate implant placement not possible
-wound stability and space maintenance need to be paid attention to- membrane, grow bone in socket

65
Q

Non-resorbable membranes-

A

for space maintenance, but will require second surgery, sticks through; worried about dehiscience, thick gingival biotype

66
Q

• Resorbable membranes-

A

less surgery, thinner

-contraindicated if infection, implants can be placed immediately, and soft tissue limitations

67
Q

Endosseous dental implant-

A

esthetic region (if possible)- FULL THICKNESS

78
Q

ARP- Generally successful in preventing alveolar bone height loss. •Does not eliminated alveolar ridge width loss (approximately —– width loss with socket preservation, nothing we can do). •Presence of residual material following healing.

A

2.5 mm

79
Q

Immediate-

A

implant placed immediately following extraction

  • less surgery and less overall treatment time
  • optimal use of existing bone
  • site morphology and tissue type could complicate optimal use of existing bone
  • may not have enough keratinized epithelium for flap
  • technique sensitive procedure
  • metal surface of implant may become visible due to buccal resorption
80
Q

Early-

A

implant placed where soft tissue has healed and covers socket

  • easier implant placement
  • allows for resolution of local pathology
  • site morphology may complicate optimal treatment
  • longer treatment time
  • varying amount of bone resorption at socket walls
  • technique sensitive
81
Q

—– OF FOUR SOCKET WALLS MUST BE INTACT FOR THESE FIRST TWO

A

THREE

82
Q

Late-

A

placed after substantial amounts of new bone have formed (typically over 16 weeks later)

  • clinically healed ridges and mature soft tissue
  • increased treatment time
  • large variation in bone volume available (longer waiting time increases bone loss)
83
Q

Conventional-

A

implant placed in fully healed ridge

  • extraction site lined with keratinized mucosa on dense cortical bone
  • rate of new bone formation decreases after 3-4 months
84
Q

86
Q

—– minimal bone thickness for surrounding bone (for osseointegration to occur)
—– minimal bone thickness on the buccal aspect (for both bone/soft tissue integrity and for restorative reasons)
——- minimal distance between a tooth and an implant
—— minimal distance between two implants
Implant has to be placed —— apical to adjacent CEJ in patients with no attachment loss (2-5 mm is the working range)
—— interocclusal (interarch) distance for the crown (regular implant-supported screw-retained crown)

A

2 mm

2 mm

3 mm

2 mm

7 mm

87
Q

Cover screw vs healing abutment-

A

cover screw is flat and can be healed over, healing abutment then put on so gingiva can heal around it

88
Q

If placing more than one implant…..

A
  • Importance of a good surgical stent (guide)
  • Parallelism
  • Angulation
  • Spacing (mesial-distally, buccal-lingually but also amount of penetration into bone [apical-coronally])
  • Vertical bone augmentation is difficult to achieve
  • Inter-implant papillae cannot predictably be re-established.
89
Q

Per-implant disease-

A

pathology must be noted after loading (already has a crown) and not related to placement complications

90
Q

Peri-implant mucositis-

A

analogous to gingivitis- reversible, no bone loss

91
Q

Peri-implantitis-

A

analogous to periodontitis- loss of peri-implant bone

92
Q

Per-implant disease diagnosed on…

A
Bleeding on probing around the implant
Suppuration around the implant
Probing depth around the implant
Mobility of the implant 
Radiographic evidence of bone loss around the implant
93
Q

Failing Implant-

A

progressive alveolar bone loss, pocket formation, bleeding on probing, or suppuration
Failed Implant-
-hopeless and nonfunctional implant requiring removal
–may exhibit loss of osseointegration, mobility, or pain

A

implantoplasty

inflammation (debride plaque, improve oral hygiene, adjunctive antibiotics as indicated)

unfavorable soft tissue morphology by flap surgery or gingivectomy

decontaminate implant surface with citric acid solutions, guided bone regeneration

95
Q

Peri-implant defects and treatments

Class I- \

A

Slight horizontal bone loss with minimal peri-implant defects
Treatment- Surgical reduction of pocket depth, thinning of mucosal flaps and apical repositioning of flaps at a bone edge level, using the corresponding suture technique. The implant surface is cleaned and decontaminated. Implantoplasty is only performed if threads are exposed.

96
Q

Peri-implant defects and treatments

Class II-

A
Moderate horizontal bone loss with isolated vertical defects
Treatment- Similar to class 1, but repositioning is performed more apically, leaving more implant surface exposed, thus requiring an implantoplasty. If local vertical resorption has three or more walls, this bone defect is restored using classical GTR techniques. In cases where the defect involves one or two walls, osteoplasty or bone leveling is performed to favor soft tissue repositioning, to fulfill self-cleaning criteria.
97
Q

Peri-implant defects and treatments

Class III-

A

moderate to advanced horizontal bone loss with broad, circular bony defects
Treatment-Presence of vertical defects almost always requires GTR techniques.

98
Q

Peri-implant defects and treatments

Class IV-

A

advanced horizontal bone loss with broad, circumferential vertical defects, as well as loss of the oral and/or vestibular bony wall
Treatment- Same as III

99
Q

How do you sequence treatment?

A
  1. Etiologic phase of treatment (correct faulty restorations
  2. Prepros surgery (crown lengthening, mucogingival procedures, ridge augmentation)
    a. Something you can do for a denture
  3. Restoration design
  4. Pre-implant surgery
  5. Post prosthetic surgery
  6. Maintenance
