Surgical Procedures: Patient should receive full work up. Study models, a wax-up of planned restoration, fabrication of a radiographic and surgical guide stent, and appropriate pretreatment radiographs, PAs, pano, and Computed or linear tomography for 3D view of bone. Bone quality and quantity also important
-
Single-Stage Surgical Procedure: when the cover screw is left exposed. Still need 3-6 month healing before abutment/crown put on
Single-stage surgical procedure with early/immediate loading: controlled loading forces put on implant the very same day it is placed.
-
Immediate Implant Placement in Extraction Sockets: implant placed in the extraction site after tooth is removed. Problems that occur are protracted healing time, excessive pain, swelling, and large ridge defect if implant fails.
-
Dental Implant Site Preservation and Development: implant site requires intact cortical plate of bone after the extraction. If this is not possible area may need bone graft which requires 6 months of healing before placing implant. Guided bone regeneration, soft tissue graft, sinus bone grafts, distraction osteogenesis, or combinations of theses extend treatment time
Guided bone regeneration is a surgical procedure preformed to increase the amount of alveolar bone available for the proper placement of a dental implant. Involves the bone, cementum, and periodontal ligament around teeth
needed when Volume, height, or width deficiency of residual ridge that prevents implant from being placed. done 6 months before treatment.
Distraction osteogenesis is a surgical procedure used to increase the bone height by cutting the bone into two pieces and then gradually separated by 1mm everyday to form new bone
