Prosthetic Options in Implant Dentistry Rola Shadid, BDS, MSc, AFAAID
Seminar Outline Description of implant prosthesis designs Selection criteria
Ideal goal of implant dentistry to replace patient’s missing teeth to normal contour, comfort, function, esthetics, speech and health, regardless of previous atrophy, disease or injury of the stomatognathic system Final restoration – not implants
The end result should be clearly identified before the project begins
Ideal Treatment Plan Sequence The prothesis first is planned The key implant positions and implant number are selected The patient force factors The bone density Implant size Implant design Available bone in the edentulous site
Biologically-driven implant placement Prosthetically-driven implant placement
Completely edentulous prosthesis design Partially edentulous prosthesis design
Advantages of Fixed IMPLANT Restorations 2. Removable implant overdentures require greater maintenance and exhibit more complications than fixed restorations Problem of IODs in review of litrature by Goodacare: Retention and adjestement problem(30%) Clip or attachment fracture(17%) Fracture of prosthesis (12%) Reline(19%) 1. Feeling and acting simillar to natural teeth 3. Mandibular overdenture often traps food below its flanges 4.Important role for the presence of complete implant supported restoration is the maintenance and regeneration of posterior bone in mandible
Prosthesis Designs
ln 1989, Misch proposed five prosthetic options for implant dentistry:
FP-1 Replace only the anatomical crowns Minimal loss of hard and soft tissues The bone and soft tissue must be ideal in volume and position to obtain an FP-1 for the final restoration Very similar in size and contour to most traditional fixed prostheses Most often desired in the maxillary anterior region
FP-1
FP-1 is difficult to achieve when more than two adjacent teeth are missing 36% of patients presented bone deficiencies that hindered prosthetically ideal placement of Implants Bone & soft tissue augmentation is often required Andersson et al. 1995
FP-1 Material Porcelain to noble-metal alloy Zirconia-based restoraion
FP-2 Restore the anatomical crown & a portion of the root The volume and topography of the available bone is more apical Incisal edge in correct position, but gingival third of crown is overextended. 3. Are similar to teeth exhibiting periodontal bone loss and gingival recession
The patient and the clinician should be aware from the onset of treatment that the final prosthetic teeth will appear longer than healthy natural teeth without bone loss
Esthetic zone vs FP-2 The smile/lip line should be evaluated The selection of FP2 or FP3 is often based on the evaluation of the lip line. An FP2 (in low lip line patients) is easier to fabricate because of fewer porcelain bake cycles.
Smile Line Classification High: display all of the interdental papilla and more than 2 mm of tissue above the cervices of the teeth. Prevalence is 11% Average: 75% to 100% cervicoincisal length of maxillary anterior teeth and interdental papilla exposed. (69%) Low < 75% cervicoincisal length of maxillary anterior teeth exposed. (20%)
Smile Line Classification High Average Low
FP-2 If lip line during smiling does not display cervical regions, longer teeth are usually of no esthetic consequences, provided pt is informed
FP-2 Material Porcelain to noble-metal alloy Easily be separated and soldered in case of a nonpassive fit at the metal try-in Noble metals in contact with implants corrode less than nonprecious alloys Zirconia based restoraion
FP-3 Replace the natural teeth crowns and has pink-colored restorative materials to replace a portion of the soft tissue
FP-3 Normal to high maxillary lip line during smiling, or pt with high esthetic demands
Materials for Full Arch FP-3 Porcelain-metal with pink porcelain Hybrid restoration of denture teeth and acrylic and metal substructure Zirconia based restoration The primary factor that determines the restoration material is the amount of crown height space <15mm ≥15mm PORCElAIN–METAL HYBRID
CHS
Excessive CH & traditional porcelain-metal restoration ??? Porcelain thickness should not be greater than 2-mm thick More shrinkage Base metals porosities in the structure large amount of metal increases the risk of porcelain fracture Noble metals weight and cost
Fixed detachable hybrid prosthesis (fixed complete denture) ( CHS ≥15mm) A smaller metal framework and the acrylic resin polymerized with the denture teeth on the framework. Titanium bar with retention pins for the acrylic resin
Fixed detachable hybrid prosthesis The denture teeth in these prostheses should not be acrylic or composite, owing to a high fracture rate. Instead, porcelain denture teeth are suggested.
Fixed detachable hybrid prosthesis Smaller metal framework Denture teeth and acrylic Less expensive to fabricate Highly esthetic Acrylic pink soft tissue replacements The impact force of dynamic occlusal loads is reduced Lightweight Easier to repair 15 to 20 mm
Fixed detachable hybrid prosthesis The fatigue of acrylic is greater than the traditional prosthesis REPAIR of the restoration is more commonly needed
CAD-CAM zirconia-based, screw-retained, cross-arch restorations Zirconia framework veneered with porcelain Full-contour (monolithic) Zirconia restorations
CAD-CAM zirconia-based, screw-retained, cross-arch restorations lack of casting distortion due to the CAD/CAM process; highly reduced chance of chipping compared to acrylic or porcelain stronger and improved aesthetics of screw access hole areas. monolithic zirconia bridge requires only 12 to 15 mm of prosthetic space, not 15mm-20mm
The success rate of implant supported screw-retained zirconia prostheses have been shown to be as high as 100% for a period of 5 years Vizcaya, 2011; Oliva, 2012
High level of accuracy and rigidity of the framework was obtained by CAD-CAM method, and satisfactory esthetics was featured by layering the porcelain on the Zirconia framework. Hong et al. 2014
Removable Prostheses
Removable Prostheses 1. RP-4 2. RP-5 Complete removable overdentures have often been reported with predictability Two kinds of removable prostheses, based upon support of the restoration: 1. RP-4 2. RP-5
RP-4 Completely supported by the implants The restoration is rigid when inserted A low-profile tissue bar or superstructure that splints the implant abutments 5 or 6 implants in the mandible 6 to 8 implants in the maxilla
RP-5 Implant and soft tissue support
RP-5 The primary advantage of an RP-5 restoration is the reduced cost Bone will continue to resorb in the soft tissue-borne regions Bone resorption with RP-5 restorations may occur two to three times faster than the resorption found with full dentures Relines and occlusal adjustments every few years
Selection Factors for Completely Edentulous Patient’s desire Financial capabilities Number of implants placed The amount of vertical resorption (Crown height space) Labial support requirements. (The amount of Maxillary anterior/posterior resorption)
The amount of vertical resorption (Crown height space) CHS <15mm (Fixed) CHS ≥15mm (Fixed hybrid or Removable) If CHS < 12 mm, overdenture is contraindicated without osteoplasty
CHS for Removable
CHS for Fixed
Maxillary Anterior/Posterior Resorption If the anterior/posterior (A/P) resorption is 7 mm or less, fixed prostheses are probably indicated If the A/P resorption is in the range of 8 to 10 mm, fixed or removable prostheses may be indicated If the A/P resorption > 10 mm, removable or fixed prostheses with removable labial veneers Carl Drago, 2011
