, INTRODUCTION TO ORAL IMPLANTOLOGY
IMPLANT GEOMETRY (MACRODESIGN)
• Endosseous Implants
-Blade-like (not used nowadays)
-Pins
-Root form (Cylindrical hollow & full)
-Disk like
-Screw shaped-→ Engages bone well and is a good primary stabilization
-Tapered and Screw shaped→Also used nowadays, because they require
less space in apical region (anterior maxilla) & also used in extraction
sockets.
• Subperiosteal (Custom frame implants)→ used to retain over-denture in atrophic
mandible.
• Trans mandibular Implants→retains denture in edentulous lower jaw (extremely
resorbed)
Osseointegration: is a direct structural & functional connection between ordered
living bone & surface of load bearing implant without intervening soft tissues-
→Histologically.
Clinically→Osseointegration is the rigid fixation of an alloplastic material (implant)
in bone with the ability to withstand occlusal force.
*Most commonly used implants today→screw shaped or threaded cylindrical implant,
because it engages the bone well and is able to achieve good primary stabilization.
IMPLANT SURFACE CHARACTERISTICS (MICRODESIGN)
-Positive influence in the healing process
-Modifications in surface energy, chemical composition & surface topography are
known to influence cellular activity & tissue responses leading to enhanced
osteogenesis.
