摘要:

A technique for the measurement of bone loss around endosseous implants using an optical comparator was investigated. Five operators were asked to measure the mesial and distal alveolar bone levels around a screw type dental implant on a periapical radiograph mounted on an optical comparator. The known size of a threaded implant was used as a reference. The bone loss around the implant was calculated by taking the average of the mesial and distal measurements. Statistical analysis at the 95 percent confidence level demonstrated that there was no significant difference among the measurements. Although the initial results are encouraging, additional research is necessary with a larger sample size to validate the accuracy of optical comparator readings and compare the efficacy of this technique with other currently used methods for determining bone loss around root form implants.

摘要:

Rapid, accurate seating and cementation of permanent implant abutment heads that have been substantially altered for interocclusal clearance or parallelism requirements can be accomplished with individual, custom cast, insertion devices. The evolution and design of these devices (abutment transfer drivers) for fixed and removable prostheses are described. (Implant Dent 1995;4:91–93)

摘要:

Indexing and soldering an implant bar can be a troublesome procedure. The expansion of the soldering investment may result in an inaccurate fit of the implant framework over the abutments or the implant heads. To overcome the distortion of the implant framework during soldering, a simple procedure for connecting the implant framework parts is described where the connector joints are cast-to rather than soldered.

摘要:

Over the past 20 years the incorporation of implant dentistry into academia has been documented in some detail for North American dental schools but has not been pursued on an international level. In June of 1993, we surveyed 51 dental schools outside of the United States affiliated with the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine's Office of International Relations concerning their teaching involvement with implant dentistry. Results from the 44 (86 percent) responding schools suggest that implant dentistry is being incorporated into predoctoral curriculums. Industrialized countries were more inclined to provide implant education. Insufficient time and the thought that the predoctoral level was not the place for implant dentistry were cited as some of the reasons for not incorporating implant dentistry into the curriculum. Oral surgery, prosthodontics, and periodontics departments developed and administered the implant curriculum. Formats varied among schools with respect to allotted time, curricular placement, laboratory experience, and clinical participation. Didactic material most frequently presented included a historical overview, diagnosis and treatment planning, classification of dental implants, and surgical and prosthetic concepts. Clinical involvement varied from actual implant placement to observation of prosthodontic procedures. Results were categorized based on the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) classification of countries in six regions. (Implant Dent 1995;4:105–109)

摘要:

Reconstruction and rehabilitation of the head and neck cancer patient is challenging. Vascularized fibula grafts can be used to reconstruct mandibular defects after resection of the malignancy and the surrounding bone. Prosthodontic treatment can restore function and esthetics. This preliminary report discusses the use of endosseous implants in radiated mandibular vascularized fibula grafts after surgical resection. (Implant Dent 1995;4:111–114)
