 SUMMARY
Introduction
 Long term success in implant dentistry requires
certain important criteria .There are more than 50
criteria that are required in treatment planning.
 Once the prosthodontic needs of the patient have
been determined,the most important criteria is the
available bone.
AVAILABLE BONE
 Describes the external
architecture or the
quantity of bone present
in edentulous area
considered for implants
AVAILABLE BONE
 1.5-2mm-Surgical error.
 Root form implants-width Diameter and
Mesiodistal length of available bone
 length of implant Height of bone available
 Implant width
 S=F/A
 0.25mm increase in diameter,5-8% surface area
increases.
 Increase in dia-less stress at crestal bone implant
interface.
 Implant Height
 Also affects total surface area.
 3mm longer implant 20-30% increase in surface area.
 Initial stability of implant
 It is measured in terms
of
 Bone height
 Bone width
 Bone length
 Bone angulation
 Crown-height space
Available bone height
 Radiographic Evaluation-
OPG
 Anterior regions of jaws-
greatest height
 Maximum height-Maxilla and
mandible-sites
 The minimum bone height for
a predictable long term
endosteal implant survival is
12 mm.
 Skeletal relationships-Class 2 and class 3
 Posterior jaws –more limiting for implant height
 Suggested bone height -12mm
Available bone height
 Dense bone may accommodate shorter implant but a
porous bone may require longer implant.
 More imp.as affects implant length and crown height.
 Once the minimum bone height is established width is
more important than additional height.
Available bone width
 Measured between the
facial and lingual plates at
the crest .
 The crest is supported by
a wider base.
 Osteoplasty
 Exception-ant maxilla
Available bone width
 Minimum bone width for
a 4mm root form implant
is more than 6 mm.
 Reduced width -narrower
diameter implant.
 Initial width of available
bone is related to crestal
bone loss,after loading.
Available bone length
 The mesiodistal length
of bone in an
edentulous area is
limited by adjacent
teeth or implant.
 Implant - 1.5 mm
adjacent tooth and
 3mm from adjacent
implant
-For a bone width of 5mm
the minimum length is
8mm.
 Ideal implant width for single tooth or multiple
implants.
 Natural tooth being replaced
Available bone angulation
 It represents the root
trajectory in relation to
occlusal plane.
 Acceptable bone
angulation depends on the
width of the ridge.
 For wider ridges bone
angulation can be as much
as 25 degrees .
 For narrower ridges
acceptable angulation is
20 degrees
 Ideally,angulation is:
 1.Perpendicular to occlusal forces.
 2.Aligned with forces of occlusion
 3.Parallel to long axis of prosthodontic restoration.
 Rarely bone angulation remains ideal.
 Mandibular Teeth: lingually inclined in posterior
region and labial inclination in anterior region.
 Anterior region in both jaws is usually deficient in
bone
 Posterior mandible –submandibular fossa dictates
angulation
Crown-Height space
 Vertical distance from
the crest of the ridge to
the occlusal plane.
 Affects
 appearance ,
 amount of moment of
force on the implant and
surrounding crestal bone.
 Considered as a vertical
cantilever.
 Greater the CHS,greater
the moment of force,or
lever arm.
 Ideally,CHS should be
=,< 15mm.

Misch and Judy in 1985
DIVISION A BONE
Consists of abundant bone in all directions
Dimensions
Width>6mm
Height>12mm
Length>7mm
Angulations<25 degrees
CHS < or =15mm
DIVISION A BONE
 Treatment options
 Division A root forms or wider implants .
 All prosthetic options.
 Limited inter arch space. (High profile O-ring)
 Osteoplasty .
Fixed Prosthetic options
FP-1
FP-2
FP-3 restoration in Div A bone
Removable prosthesis
DIVISION B BONE
 Barely sufficient bone.
 Ridge width is reduced.
 M-D width of bone is less…so 3mm implants.
DIVISION B BONE
 Dimensions
 Width 2.5mm-6mm
 B+ :4-6mm
 B-w:2.5-4mm
 Height> 12mm
 Length> 6mm
 Angulations <20 degrees
 CHS <15mm
Treatment options
 3 Rx:-
1) Modify the narrower
div B bone to div A by
osteoplasty
 However after osteoplasty
the ridge height should
not become <10 mm
 And place division A root
form
 2) Narrow diameter
division B root form
 angulation <20
 available bone length
atleast 12mm to ensure
adequate surface area for
narrow diameter implants
 The design of prosthesis
also changes with
osteoplasty procedures.
 3) Ridge
augmentation
 In cases where osteoplasty
will result in ridge height
less than 10mm, ridge
augmentation instead
should be done.
Bone spreader-an
alternative
DIVISION C(COMPROMISED BONE)
 Deficient in one or more dimensions
 Resorption first occurs in width .The bone is called
C-w
 Then in height. The bone is called C-h
 Posterior maxilla VS Anterior maxilla
 Posterior mandible VS anterior mandible.
Inform patient about bone loss
 Dimensions
unfavorable in
 Width (c-w) :0 to 2.5mm
 Height(c-h)-<12mm
 Angulation (c-a)>30 degrees
 CHS > 15mm
 Uncommon sub category
 C-a
 Avbl bone adequate in
height and width
 Angulation greater than
30 degree
Treatment options
1)C-w ridge
a) Osteoplasty which
converts it to C-h ridge
type with adequate width
b) Bone augmentation can
be done
Treatment options
 2)C-h ridge can be treated with
 a) Greater no of endosteal implants of reduced height.
 b) Ridge augmentationton to upgrade div C to div A
 c) Subperiosteal –Circumfrential and unilateral.

atrophy of alveolar
process as well as basal
bone
 Basal bone loss:
 Flat maxilla
 Pencil-thin mandible
 CHS>20mm
Treatment options
 Ridge augmentation is
the treatment of choice.
 Complete implant
supported dentures
indicated
 Fixed restorations X
 RP-5 not suggested.
 90 percent of autogenous
graft resorbs in 5 years-
so not intended for
denture support.
 Chances of dental
cripple.
 Subperiosteal implants-the myth.
 If adequate bone present in mandibular anteriors
with D bone in posteriors-
 Root form implants.
 Tripodal sub-periosteal implants.
 Mandibular staple implants
 Ramus frame implants

Editor's Notes

  • #5 Past-only bone Present-advent of graft,modified implant site
  • #6 More critical when IAN canal present. No complication when in sinus,inferior cortical border,cribriform plate of natural tooth.
  • #7 Implant height-greater bone-implant interface and greater resistance to rotational torque during screw tightening. Min. height of implant-dense bone-short implant 8mm,porous bone-long implant.
  • #9 such as the maxillary sinus or the mandibular canal
  • #10 Before 1981,Branemark screw type implants provided single implants-3.75 dia..and were used at all locations..Implant height was 9mm,and implant failure rate was significantly highr if smaller lengt implants were used .13%-failure-10mm 18%--------8mm 25%.........7mm
  • #13 Edentulous ridge greater than 6mm width-less crestal bone loss.
  • #14 Surgical error-compensation+Tooth crestal defect-less than 1.4mm.so if bone loss occurs from a crest module,ot adjacent tooth,it will not spread to adjacent structures.
  • #15 Tooth has greater width at Interproximal contact…..narrow at CEJ……Narrower at 2mm below CEJ….should be 1.5 mm from natural tooth.eg maxillary 1st pm----8mm at interprox contact….5 mm at CEJ…4 mm at 2mm below CEJ….So 4 mm implant should be placed 1.5mm from adjacent tooth.
  • #16 where narrow diameter implant is used ,greater stresses are produced ,here the
  • #18 Width of the bone is a limiting factor.wide bone-25 degrees….narrow -20 degrees.
  • #20 Doesnot follow natural resrption phenomenon……..only about residual bone.
  • #24 Root form implant 4mm or greater..for molars 5-6 mm
  • #26 MOST IDEAL time for implants.
  • #28 25 percent decrease in bone width in first yr……40 percent in 1-3 yrs…..and may remain for 15 yrs in anterior mandible. post mand resorbs 4 times as fast as anterior. Post max region has fastest decrease of bone height of any intraoral region.
  • #29 As bone resorbs,width of available bone decreases at expense of facial cortical plate,as lingual cortical plate is thick.25%decrease in 1st yr and 40 % dec in width 2nd yr. after Xn .---slight to mild atrophy
  • #32 Alloplast,allografts with Guided bone regenerations are performes.Augmentation in height is more difficult than width,except in maxillary posterior regions,where sinus grafts are better suited for height augmentation.
  • #33 Grafted ridges----Fixed prosthesis Osteoplasty-------removable prosthesis.
  • #34 Moderate to advanced atrophy.
  • #35 C-w bone -----c-h bone….D bone. Pts gen want mandiblular denture to be stable,so implants are put up only in mandible……pt should be informed about severe bone loss with time in posterior regions,rendering usage of advanced grafting procedures.
  • #38 Restoring div c requires greater skill and training ,instead of div a or B. Root form implants placed in this condition ,may lead to positioning implants within floor of the mouth,and compromise prosthetic reconstruction,speech and comfort.
  • #39 Augmentation is tough,as greater amount of bone volume is reqd,and recipient bed is small.
  • #40 Sinus grafts for c-h ridge is excellent option---10 mm of vertical bone can be augmented. Several studies indicate that less than 10 mm of implant length---failure rates are increased…after prosthetic delievery. Reason-1.inadequate implant support 2.Mafnification of force from excessive CHS.
