implant,

n a device, usually alloplastic, that is surgically inserted into or onto the oral tissue. To be used as a prosthodontic abutment, it should remain quiescent and purely secondary to local tissue physiology.

implant, abutment of,

n the portion of an implant that protrudes through the gingival tissues and is designed to support a prosthesis.

implant, anchor endosteal,

n an implant with a narrow buccolingual wedge-shaped infrastructure that is designed to be placed deep into the bone. The outline of the implant appears similar to a nautical anchor, and there is a variety of sizes and shapes to satisfy many anatomic and prosthodontic needs. Endosteal anchor implants are cast of chromium-cobalt surgical alloy and annealed.

n an artificial appliance made to conform to the shape of a bone and placed beneath the outer, or fibrous, layer of the periosteum.

implant, one-stage,

n an endosseous implant placed in the bone and immediately fitted with an abutment or an implant already having a transmucosal coronal portion as part of the implant design so that the implant is exposed to the oral cavity during the healing process. This eliminates the need for a second surgery. Also known as a

implant, two-stage,

n an endosseous implant placed in the bone, with the soft tissue over the implant being sutured closed in a stage-one surgery to allow osseointegration of the implant. A second surgery is performed later in which the soft tissue over the submerged implant is removed in order to thread an abutment into the implant so that a prosthesis can be attached; also known as a submergible implant.

implant, zygomatic

n a long, screw-shaped endosseous implant placed in the area of the former first maxillary molar up into the zygomatic bone following an intrasinusal trajectory and used as an alternative to bone augmentation of a severely atrophic maxilla.
