Dental Care and Implant Placement: Detailed Summary

Treatment for an oral lesion includes perio therapy, oral hygiene instructions, and dietary restrictions.
Allergic reaction to toothpaste or mouth rinse can present with unilateral blisters, erythema, or white lesions.
Clinical features of gingival, periodontal, and endodontic abscesses vary based on patient age, periodontal health, and tooth vitality.
Untreated abscesses can cause pain, gingival swelling, and radiographic bone loss.
Implant placement involves tools such as implant wrench, cover screw, and healing abutment for specific purposes during the procedure.
In free-handed placement of a single ZimVie implant, the platform should ideally be aligned with adjacent teeth, at least 3mm from nearest tooth root surface, and parallel to the occlusal table.
Pitfalls in implant placement, such as bone necrosis and drill getting stuck, can be avoided by using proper drilling techniques and preoperative assessment.
Conditions like necrotizing gingivitis, periodontitis, and herpetic gingivostomatitis can be identified based on specific clinical features.
Patients with type 2 diabetes undergoing implant treatment are more likely to experience peri-implantitis due to poor healing and inflammation.
Prevention of peri-implantitis in diabetic patients involves controlling blood glucose levels and monitoring HbA1c before and after implant placement.
