2. Dental implant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_implant

   The primary use of dental implants is to support dental prosthetics (i.e. false teeth). Modern dental implants work through a biologic process where bone fuses tightly to the surface of specific materials such as titanium and some ceramics. The integration of implant and bone can support physical loads for decades without failure. [10]: 103–107

3. Medical glove - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_glove

   Some brands may offer size XL. Surgical gloves are usually sized more precisely since they are worn for a much longer period of time and require exceptional dexterity. The sizing of surgical gloves are based on the measured circumference around the palm (excluding the thumb) in inches, at a level slightly above the thumb's sewn. Typical sizing ...

4. Implant stability quotient - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implant_stability_quotient

   The implant stability quotient (ISQ) is the value on a scale that indicates the level of stability and osseointegration in dental implants. The scale ranges from 1 to 100, with higher values indicating greater stability. The acceptable stability range lies between 55 and 85 ISQ. [1] ISQ values are obtained using resonance frequency analysis (RFA).

5. Prosthesis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prosthesis

   In medicine, a prosthesis (pl.: prostheses; from Ancient Greek: πρόσθεσις, romanized: prósthesis, lit. 'addition, application, attachment'), [1] or a prosthetic implant, [2] [3] is an artificial device that replaces a missing body part, which may be lost through physical trauma, disease, or a condition present at birth (congenital disorder).

6. Dental instrument - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_instrument

   A dental torque wrench or restorative torque wrench is a torque wrench used to precisely apply a specific torque to a fastener screw for fixation of an abutment, dentures, or prosthetics on a dental implant. [4]

7. Crown (dental restoration) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown_(dental_restoration)

   In dentistry, a crown or a dental cap is a type of dental restoration that completely caps or encircles a tooth or dental implant. A crown may be needed when a large dental cavity threatens the health of a tooth. Some dentists will also finish root canal treatment by covering the exposed tooth with a crown.

8. Bone grafting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bone_grafting

   The most common use of bone grafting is in the application of dental implants to restore the edentulous area of a missing tooth. Dental implants require bones underneath them for support and proper integration into the mouth. As mentioned earlier bone grafts come in various forms such as autologous (from the same person), Allograft, Xenograft ...

9. Abutment (dentistry) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abutment_(dentistry)

   In dentistry, an abutment is a connecting element. [1] This is used in the context of a fixed bridge (the "abutment teeth" referring to the teeth supporting the bridge), partial removable dentures (the "abutment teeth" referring to the teeth supporting the partial) and in implants (used to attach a crown, bridge, or removable denture to the dental implant fixture).
