2. Peri-implantitis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peri-implantitis

   The shape of the alveolar bone in regions of bone loss varies depending on the buccal-lingual length (or cheek-to-tongue length) of the bone. Where this length is greater than the extent of the peri-implantitis, the region of bone loss can take the shape of a crater, with walls of bone surrounding the pathology; [ 4 ] this is the most common ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guided_bone_and_tissue...

   Guided bone regeneration (GBR) and guided tissue regeneration (GTR) are dental surgical procedures that use barrier membranes to direct the growth of new bone and gingival tissue at sites with insufficient volumes or dimensions of bone or gingiva for proper function, esthetics or prosthetic restoration. Guided bone regeneration typically refers ...

4. Dental implant - Wikipedia

   Also, it helps to stabilize the implant by increasing survival of the implant and decreasing marginal bone level loss. [43] While there are always new implant types, such as short implants, and techniques to allow compromise, a general treatment goal is to have a minimum of 10 mm (0.39 in) in bone height, and 6 mm (0.24 in) in width.

5. Peri-implant mucositis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peri-implant_mucositis

   Peri-implant mucositis is defined as an inflammatory lesion of the peri-implant mucosa in the absence of continuing marginal bone loss. [1]The American Academy of Periodontology defines peri‐implant mucositis as a disease in which inflammation of the soft tissues surrounding a dental implant is present without additional bone loss after the initial bone remodeling that may occur during ...

6. All-on-4 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All-on-4

   Often, tooth loss is accompanied by loss of the jaw bone, which poses the problem of reconstruction of the jaw bone requiring bone grafting. The All-on-4 technique takes advantage of the dense bone that remains in the front part of the jaws, and by placing the two posterior implants on an angle to avoid the sinus cavities in the upper jaw and ...
