For the past decade, the dental profession has developed techniques for producing functionally equivalent implant supported restorations to replace complete dentures. Little thought was given to the development of proper emergence profiles to develop anatomic restorations that were contoured like natural teeth. This article presents a simple method of modifying soft tissues coronal to the implant head that will allow the development of a restoration with correct emergence profile and anatomic contour.
Endosseous implants have been placed at the Mayo Clinic Department of Dental Specialties for over 12 years. On the basis of the clinical success of the osseointegration program, the use of implants has been expanded to include placement into tissue beds that have been exposed to therapeutic radiation. This article details preliminary data regarding implant survival in the previously radiated tissue beds. Presurgical evaluation and surgical technique are described and postprosthetic reconstruction complications are also related. Consideration is given to the relatively small number of patients in this review. It is suggested that the results should be shared among multiple institutions to create a meaningful data bank.
A template is often used for the presurgical planning of implant placement. However, a major drawback is that the CT image of the radiopaque marker is not often clear. This article describes a method of fabricating a template with a stainless steel tube sprue for accurate radiographic evaluation and implant placement. Stainless steel tube sprues are inexpensive, indicate the eventual implant inclination, and facilitate precise placement, from the CT scan without any interference from scattered radiation.
