Study Notes

Diabetes and Periodontitis

Diabetes is a risk factor for periodontitis, with increased prevalence and severity of attachment loss and bone loss in adults with diabetes.
Glycemic control influences susceptibility to oral health complications.

Risk Factors for Periodontal Disease in Diabetes Patients

Impaired connective tissue metabolism and bone healing
High glucose levels in gingival crevicular fluid hindering wound healing
Microvascular changes
Changes in collagen synthesis and maturation

Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) Test

Measures average amount of glucose in the blood over the last 2 to 3 months
Evaluates the percentage of glycosylated hemoglobin in the blood
Normal range: less than 6%

Necrotizing Periodontal Diseases

Necrotizing gingivitis
- Interdental gingival necrosis, gingival pain and erythema, bleeding with little provocation, and a fetid odor
- Predisposing factors: stress, smoking, poor oral hygiene, nutritional deficiencies, and immunosuppression
Necrotizing periodontitis
Necrotizing stomatitis

Mucogingival Defects

Deviation from the normal anatomic relationship between the gingival margin and the mucogingival junction (MGJ)
Clinical presentation: gingival recession, minimal or absent keratinized gingiva, and probing depths that extend beyond the MGJ
Causes: local factors, mechanical trauma to the tissue, and toothbrush trauma

Impression Techniques

Closed tray impression
- Impression coping remains in the mouth, attached to the implant or abutment
- Also called an indirect transfer impression technique
Open tray impression (pick-up impression)
- Impression coping is already attached to the abutment by a retaining screw
- Used with divergent implants
- Also called a pick-up impression

Abutment Retaining Screw

Tightened to a specified torque to minimize the possibility of future loosening of the screw or components
Torque force applied to a screw is called preload
Implant manufacturers provide recommended torque values for their particular components, materials, and design

Implant Dentistry

Two-stage implant systems (two-piece or submerged systems)
- First-stage surgery: placement of the implant in the bone
- Second-stage surgery: uncovering the implant, making sure there is access to it, and placing an abutment
One-stage systems (one-piece or nonsubmerged systems)
- Implant is left partially or completely exposed at the time of surgical placement, and the second-stage surgery is avoided
Osteotomy preparation: special bur is activated and inserted into the occlusal end of the osteotomy to increase the diameter of the opening slightly or to otherwise shape it
Countersinking: creation of a spiral groove on the wall of the osteotomy to receive and guide the threads on the side of the implant during surgical placement

Implant Design and Shape

Produced in several categories: blades and root form implants
Root form implants: straight cylinder or tapered screw design having threads
Microstructure of the implant: surface quality or surface alteration (e.g., machined, polished, or roughened)

Implant Abutment Junction

Important from an engineering and biological standpoint
Precision fit, internal or external connection, and anti-rotational elements are part of this junction and require close manufacturing tolerances
Minimizing bacterial contamination at this site influences how stable the bone will remain over time### Bone Grafting and Implant Placement
Bone grafting can be combined with autograft, allograft, or fabricated bone substitutes like tricalcium phosphate or hydroxyapatite.
Orthodontic tooth movement can create space for implants and increase bone volume at the site.

Antirotational Elements

Antirotational elements prevent abutment screw loosening and are classified as "external" or "internal".
External type has a permanent extension from the implant that fits into a receptacle in the abutment.
Internal type has the extension as part of the abutment that fits into a receptacle in the implant.

Implant Placement and Verification

Radiographic verification is desirable to ensure correct anatomic placement of the implant and separation from vital structures.
Radiographs can be taken during surgery to judge proper depth or anatomic location.
Verification of proper mating of components is necessary after final torque application.

Osteotomy Preparation

Osteotomy must be prepared with precision to fit the implant being used.
The overall implant shape and bone quality dictate osteotomy preparation.
Tapping may be required for screw-shaped implants in dense bone.

Implant Success and Failure

Success rates are generally higher than 80% to 85%, with 95% and higher being expected.
Implant mobility indicates loss of osseointegration and failure.
Peri-implant radiolucency suggests loss of osseointegration.
Persistent pain, infection, or paresthesia indicate implant failure.

Osseointegration

Osseointegration means direct bone-to-implant contact with no intervening periodontal ligament or tissue.
Titanium is biologically inert and prevents host tissue access directly to titanium.
Woven bone is laid down at the bone-implant interface within weeks of placement, later converting to lamellar bone.

Implant Characteristics

Implants are essentially ankylosed structures and do not erupt or move physiologically within bone.
Implants may prevent normal development of the jaws if placed before growth completion.
