Surgical Process
Procedure places the implant and a healing abutment immediately during the initial surgery.
What is single stage process?
Framework placed on bone (rests over the bone of the mandible or maxilla, under the periosteum: can be a complete arch or unilateral).
What is subperiosteal?
Living bone cells directly fuse to the metal titanium (anchor) providing biocombatibility (with no connective tissue).
What is osseointegration?
Ailing implant.
What is peri-implant mucositis?
Material dental implants are made from.
What is titanium?
Procedure involves placing the implant fully covered in the bone, then requiring a second surgery later to expose it and attach the abutment.
What is two stage process?
Implants placed through the bone (penetrates both cortical plates and passes through the full thickness of the alveolar bone).
What is transosseous (transosteal)?
Ability of a material to get along with a host (biologic environment).
What is biocompatibility?
Failing implant.
What is peri-implantitis without mobility?
Zone completely different around the implant than for a natural tooth.
What is the connective tissue zone?
The length of time of the healing phase.
What is between 0 to 12 months?
Implants placed within the bone (to replace a single tooth or provide support for the replacement of complete or partial loss of teeth).
What is endosseous (endosteal)?
The seal between the implant (anchor) and the soft tissue.
What is biological/perimucosal seal?
Indicates failure of a dental implant.
What is peri-implantitis with mobility?
Segment connecting the submerged implant body to the prosthetic component.
What is the abutment?
The length of time the remodeling phase takes place.
What is between 3 to 18 months?
The crown, abutment, and implant.
What is parts of an endosseous implant?
Similar to gingivitis (reversible).
What is peri-implant mucositis?
Causes of implant failure.
What is (local factors): Poor oral hygiene, subgingival cement, bruxism
(systemic factors): Smoking, chronic inflammation due to periodontitis, diabetes, stress, poor diet?
Patients with dental implants should maintain a continued-care schedule of this amount of time for the first year after placement.
What is a 3 month recall?
Length of time steady state takes place.
What is 18 months and beyond?
Two of the most popular implant restoration options.
What is cement retained and screw retained?
Similar to periodontitis (soft tissue inflammation & bone loss).
What is peri-implantitis?
Treatment for a dental implant that has lost integration.
What is removal of dental implant?
This is the junctional epithelium.
What is the biological seal- perimucosal seal?
