Implants have a periodontal ligament around them like natural teeth.

When placing a framework for a bridge involving natural teeth and implants, the natural teeth may have slight movement during the fitting process.

It is common to rely on the slight play natural teeth have during fitting, especially when combining them with implants.

Splinting two implant restorations on either side helps to ensure proper seating and reduces the chances of needing adjustments.

Tissue formation around implants is similar to the formation around natural teeth.

The speaker mentioned using a polycarbonate crown form to create a temporary tooth.

The use of temporary plastic acrylic provisional restorations helped prevent quick destruction of the implants.

The patient's strong clenching and grinding caused damage to permanent porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) restorations.

The periodontist had to frequently replace the implants due to natural wear and tear over many years.

The patient had a custom abutment made for their dental implant.

The patient in the text had a long-term metal restoration on their implants.

The reason the patient had a plastic restoration on their implants is that the implants got destroyed due to poor maintenance.

Adapting a ridge lap as a design can help in achieving the desired length and shape of a tooth.

The patient in the text had new implants added after the destruction of the initial set.

A soft tissue model is not typically made for dental implants.

The shape of a natural tooth is usually bigger and round compared to the shape of an implant.

Cutting and soldering are necessary steps in the preparation of a working model for dental prosthetics.

The master cast is used for making a final impression of the natural teeth.

Zappa saw's relationship with cyanoacrylate cement is discussed in the context of dental prosthetics.

During the bridge insertion process, the speaker mentioned using Emacs for a Maryland bridge.

The speaker discussed the importance of maximizing coverage to enhance bonding during the bridge insertion process.

The patient in the discussion was old enough to receive dental implants instead of Maryland bridges.

The speaker highlighted the significance of keeping the patient's mouth open during the insertion of Maryland bridges to improve their appearance.

The formation of tissue around dental implants is similar to the natural formation around teeth, as discussed by the speaker.

The soft tissue model allows the laboratory to build contour by reconstructing the hard tissue.

The soft tissue model helps the technician manage the contour more easily.

The speaker mentioned that natural teeth may have slight movement during the fitting process when combined with implants.

It is common to rely on the play natural teeth have during fitting when combining them with implants.

The crowns made by the speaker had a ridge lap hanging over the tissue.

Splinting two implant restorations on either side helps ensure proper seating and reduces the chances of needing adjustments, according to the speaker.

The speaker emphasized the importance of using a polycarbonate crown form for creating temporary teeth.

Implants have a periodontal ligament around them similar to natural teeth.

The natural teeth in a bridge involving implants may experience slight movement during the fitting process.

The patient's happiness with the implant restoration was emphasized by the speaker.
