Periodontology 6th E

Ch 8 Peri-implant Health and Diseases

QuestionAnswer
Implants, natural teeth or both: connective tissue encircles it ? Both natural tooth and implant
Implants, natural teeth or both: periodontal ligament present? Natural tooth only
Implants, natural teeth or both: cementum present? Natural tooth only
Implants, natural teeth or both: gingival fibers? Natural tooth only
Implants, natural teeth or both: keratinized tissue ? Natural tooth only
Implants, natural teeth or both: junctional epithelium? Both natural tooth and implant
Implants, natural teeth or both: surrounded by alveolar bone? Both natural tooth and implant
How are probing measurements taken on a dental implant? From a fixed reference point to the base of the pocket.
What can happen if an implant is probed with too much pressure? This will cause the probe to penetrate the biologic seal.
Why is calculus on implants generally easy to remove? Because it does not interlock with the surface.
What is true about removing calculus that has formed on an implant? Some calculus can be difficult to remove and heavier pressure may be required during scaling.
Which type of scaler is best for instrumenting around implants? Scaler made of titanium
What type of probe is acceptable for use if light pressure is used? Metal
Periodontal pathogens destroy bone more rapidly in which one: a dental implant or a natural tooth? Implant
Which questions should be asked of an implant patient at their dental appointments? Do the gums around your implant bleed, is there any bad taste coming from your implant, and have you noticed any changes with your implant?
How do connective tissue fibers attach to the surface of the implant? They run parallel to the implant and abutment surface and encircle the entire implant and abutment.
What are some reasons for acquiring a dental implant? To replace a missing tooth, to support a bridge, to support dentures
How often should radiographs be taken of dental implants? Once per year
How long after abutment connection is postoperative healing considered complete? Approximately 3 months
When is osseointegration considered successful? If there is an absence of gingival inflammation around peri-implant tissues.
What are some examples of parafunctional habits? Clenching, grinding, and bruxing
Reversible or irreversible: Peri-implant mucositis? Reversible
Reversible or irreversible: Peri-implant gingivitis? Reversible
Reversible or irreversible: Peri-implantitis? Irreversible
What is true about the onset of peri-implantitis? May occur early after placement and may progress in nonlinear and accelerating pattern.
Peri-implantitis progresses in a fashion similar to what other disease? Periodontitis
What type of cleaning aids are acceptable for use around a dental implant? toothbrush, floss, end tuft brush
What type of cleaning aids are not acceptable for use around a dental implant? standard wire interproximal brush
What surrounds the implant abutment post? A sulcus lined by sulcular epithelium
What is the function of the biologic seal of the implant? It functions as a barrier between the implant and the oral cavity.
The portion of the implant that protrudes through the tissue into the mouth is called the: abutment post
The portion of the implant that is only present above the gumline is called the: Implant prosthesis
The portion of the implant that is only present below the gumline is called the: Implant body
What is a foreboding sign of peri-implant disease and should be immediately addressed if it is seen? Pus
What is the best indicator for diagnosis of implant failure? Mobility
What are some risk factors for implant failures? Smoking and the same bacteria that are pathogenic to natural teeth
How would peri-implantitis be described? Periodontitis in the tissues surrounding an implant, resulting in bone loss
How would peri-implant tissues be described? The tissues that surround the implant
How would hard-tissue deficiencies be corrected? Ridge augmentation with bone grafting and hard tissue augmentation
How much annual bone loss following the implant's first year of function would still be considered a treatment success? 0.2mm or less
What rough surface topography on an implant could induce inflammation and provide an environment for bacterial attachment? Cement
What are some causes of implant failure or causes of unwanted systemic inflammatory effects in an implant? Zirconia hypersensitivity reaction of the prosthetic component, dental biofilm, suboptimal positioning of the implant
