A modified impression technique for accurate registration of peri-implant soft tissues.

چکیده
Replacement of single missing teeth with an implant-supported restoration is recognized as a highly successful treatment. An impression technique for peri-implant soft-tissue replication in an anterior zone is described. The technique involves use of an interim restoration as an abutment for the final impression. This allows accurate duplication of the soft tissues and fabrication of a final restoration with the correct emergence profile.

Transferring the Emergence Profile of Single-Tooth Implant Restorations
QDT 2004 uccessful osseointegration and function have traditionally been the main goals of implant therapy. However, successful osseointegration does not automatically lead to an optimal esthetic result, and inadequate treatment planning may severely compromise the esthetic result regardless of biologic and functional integration. Exact replication of the natural dentition, maintenance of a har...
متن کاملImpression of multiple implants using photogrammetry: Description of technique and case presentation
AIM To describe a technique for registering the positions of multiple dental implants using a system based on photogrammetry. A case is presented in which a prosthetic treatment was performed using this technique. STUDY DESIGN Three Euroteknika® dental implants were placed to rehabilitate a 55-year-old male patient with right posterior maxillary edentulism. Three months later, the positions o...
متن کاملMaintenance of Dental Implants: A Review
Objective: Successful bonding of a dental implant to bone, which was referred to as osseointegration by Branemark has been well documented. However, long-term prognosis of an implant depends on adequate maintenance and long-term care. An effective maintenance program is required to preserve the health of peri-implant tissues. Several techniques have been suggested for this purpose but it is n...
متن کاملInfluence of Abutment Color and Mucosal Thickness on Soft Tissue Color.
PURPOSE Zirconia (ZrO₂) and titanium nitride (TiN) implant abutments were introduced mainly for esthetic purposes, as titanium's gray color can be visible through mucosal tissues. This study was aimed at assessing whether ZrO₂ and TiN abutments could achieve better esthetics in comparison with titanium (Ti) abutments, regarding the appearance of soft tissues. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ninety pati...
متن کاملPrevention of Cutaneous Tissue Contracture During Removal of Craniofacial Implant Superstructures for CT and MRI Studies
OBJECTIVES Head and neck cancer patients who have lost facial parts following surgical intervention frequently require craniofacial implant retained facial prostheses for restoration. Many craniofacial implant patients require computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging scans as part of their long-term follow-up care. Consequently removal of implant superstructures and peri-abutment tiss...
