Also some types of dental implants have been imported from foreign countries in order to obtain more increased masticatory function and esthetics in Japan. On the other hand, some kinds of implant materials such Co-Cr, titanium, ceramics and artificial materials are provided to reconstruct the mandible combined with autogenous bone graft following excision of tumors in the Japanese oral and maxillofacial surgery field. It is my opinion that the success of reconstructive surgery is based on the reconstruction of mandibular bone and the reconstruction of masticatory function by dental implant on the point of oral rehabilitation to reach that the patient should live in comfort. It is well known that not every reconstruction can be satisfactory due to postoperative infection, implanted substances exposed to intra-oral and/or extra-oral sites and/or resorption of the grafted bone under a long term observation. Based on these reasons, we have reconstructed the mandible with revascularized osteomyocutaneous flaps using the microvascular anastomoses technique to reconstruct the defect and to prevent bone resorption. However, even if the reconstruction was achieved successfully, post-operative problems could come into existence due to masticatory, swallowing or speech dysfunctions. These are often caused by loss of soft tissue, deformities of the alveolar ridge or contour of the mandible. Therefore, some kinds of dental implants have been tried in some countries for the reconstruction of the edentulous mandible in order to improve the post-operative functions. The TM-Implant (Transmandibular Implant), which was deviced by Dr. Hans Bosker, Netherland, is one of these dental implants. We tried to apply for two oral cancer cases who had been resected and/or reconstructed mandibles using this implant as the first experience in our country (Fig. 5). The first patient segmentally resected mandible was reconstructed by the revascularized iliac bone, the second patient was marginal resected mandible with tumor (Fig. 6-13). Results of these two implant cases, using TM-Implant, showed significant improvement of oral function thanks of the stability of dentures after the second phase of reconstruction. Dental implants can attribute the functional improvement for oral cancer patients in the future. Strict diagnosis of the bone condition before surgery and careful surgical procedure, whenever dental implants are used, are required to avoid postoperative complications.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)</p>","PeriodicalId":76539,"journal":{"name":"Shigaku = Odontology; journal of Nihon Dental College","volume":"77 SPEC","pages":"1257-66"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1989-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"13636681","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There are many kinds of methods and techniques in dental implants, however a lot of troublesome complication on the process of surgical phase, construction of prothodontics and prognosis of maintenance care. In the proceedings of this symposium, I would like to propose you how to manage the maintenance care for various kind of dental implants through the methodology and case presentations. Tendenay and future for dental implants The current outlook of dental implant has increasing supply and demand not only dentists but also patients. According to Japanese Welfare Ministry's report in 1987, average missing teeth over sixty years old generations are approximately 42% in accordance with NIDR (U.S.A.) research. They are missed on ten over teeth in full 28th teeth dentitions owing to dental caries and periodontal diseases. Generally speaking, latent implant patients are occupied on the same possibility of needs for dental implants both Japan and U.S.A. Management of maintenance care The patients hardly recognized the importance of plaque control for the maintenance care in the intraoral condition after implantation. Dentists and dental staffs must be instruct patients for importance of plaque removal and control, because they already had forgotten the habit of teeth cleaning, especially in the edenturous conditions. 1) Concept of establishment in oral hygiene. Motivation and instruction for patients include very important factors in dental implants as well as in periodontal diseases. Patients who could not achieve on good oral hygiene levels obtained no good results in the long term observations. To establish good oral hygiene are how to control supra plaque surrounding tissues with patient himself. Ultimate concept of implantology have supported common concordance with periodontal therapy. 2) Patients consent and co-operation the right of informed consent, agreement to treatment by the patient has been gaining increased importance to implantology. Even the patient has consent, they must co-operate the process of dental implant with co-therapist (Fig. 2). 3) The clinical examination of clinical parameters in dental implants.

This social problem creates a relatively important assignment in the area of prosthodontics, especially in full denture prosthodontics. Though the most important factor that affects the success or failure of full denture prosthodontics is the condition of the residual ridge, recent studies have shown that the residual ridges continue to resorb throughout one's life span. Also our survey on the present Japanese denture patients tells us that an average person becomes edentulous at an age of 57.6, has made a full denture twice or more, has worn the denture for 8 to 10 years, and by age 65 to 67 over half of the patients have their mandibular residual ridges being even or the ridge has resorbed extremely so that the ridge is actually lower than the floor of the mouth. With the situation as it is, when we look into the future of the full denture prosthodontics it is inevitable that there will be a rapid increase in patients with extremely resorbed ridges which the present theory of full denture prosthodontics could not handle. In this sense, prosthodontic treatment of edentulous patients with implants is a relatively interesting field. In this article we will comment of the basic application technique and the prosthodontic technique which we have improved of the Brånemark's Osseointegrated implants which possess the long term basic objective clinical data and whose long term safety has been established in edentulous patients. First we will explain the basic application technique using a real case. The patient was a 56 years old female. She came to the clinic with the chief complaint of severe masticatory dysfunction due to unstable full dentures. She strongly desired fixed prosthodontics. She had worn dentures for the past 17 years. The dentures that she had on when she came in for the first visit were her 4th set of dentures. For the past 8 years she had her dentures adjusted and rebased repeatedly. Her maxillary residual ridge had an average height but her mandibular residual ridge was extremely resorbed. EMG examination exhibited conspicuous distortion in chewing rhythm. From the mandibular movement, radiographs of the TMJ regions and the clinical observations it was determined that the vertical dimension had been lost and that her mandible was displaced toward her left and anteriorly. Palpation indicated the condition of muscular tension similar to that of TMJ dysfunction patients.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)</p>","PeriodicalId":76539,"journal":{"name":"Shigaku = Odontology; journal of Nihon Dental College","volume":"77 SPEC","pages":"1223-34"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1989-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"13633976","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
