    About this ebook

    The purpose of this practical manual is to describe and illustrate each step of the basic surgical procedures involved in the placement of implants in qualified patients. To that end, each procedure is briefly but lucidly described; carefully illustrated in a series of drawings of the techniques and instrumentation used; and reinforced through clinical photographs, including radiographic and postoperative follow-up views. In addition to the basic implant surgical principles, evidence-based indications and procedures for guided bone regeneration in apical fenestration and crestal dehiscence defects, and for simultaneous sinus floor elevation via the lateral window and osteotome techniques are featured.

      Surgical Manual of Implant Dentistry - Daniel Buser

      Preface

      Based on the concept of osseointegration first described by Brånemark and Schroeder, implant dentistry has evolved tremendously over the past 15 years, and today it plays an integral role in dental rehabilitation. Though it was developed primarily to rehabilitate fully edentulous patients, since the late 1980s the treatment focus has gradually shifted to partially edentulous patients. Today, single-tooth replacement is the number one indication for implant therapy.

      Implant dentistry also has benefited from the significant progress made in associated treatment protocols. Development of bone augmentation procedures allows clinicians to correct alveolar bone deficiencies, while guided bone regeneration with barrier membranes and sinus floor elevation have become standards of care to correct bone defects in other parts of the oral cavity. In addition, improved osteophilic microtextured titanium implant surfaces help to accelerate healing, significantly reducing treatment time. Together, these ad vances make implant therapy more predictable and more attractive to patients, and the result has been a rapid expansion of implant dentistry in daily practice and more clinicians placing dental implants.

      This book is the culmination of many years’ effort to standardize surgical technique in implant dentistry. It is designed for postdoctoral students and practitioners who wish to perform surgical implant procedures in daily practice with a high predictability for success and a low risk for complications. Basic surgical principles and procedures for placing im plants both in standard sites and in sites with local defects are presented using detailed explanations and hand-drawn illustrations. The final chapter of the book presents 14 comprehensive clinical case reports, several documenting long-term follow-ups over a period of 10 years.

      The publication of this book coincides with the production of a DVD featuring live surgery of the same surgical techniques in seven clinical cases. The surgery was recorded during master courses in implant dentistry offered by the University of Bern.

      The authors wish to thank the staff of Quintessence Publishing for their excellent support during the preparation and production of this book.

      Chapter 1

      Basic Surgical Principles

      This chapter presents the basic surgical principles related to the placement of Straumann implants in partially edentulous patients. To achieve successful osseointegration, a precise and low-trauma surgical technique is required. Surgeons must take important measures preoperatively to prevent postsurgical infection, handle surgical instruments expertly to preserve soft tissues, and carefully accomplish adequate implant site preparation without overheating the bone. Precise surgical protocol includes the following precautions:

      •   Preoperative mouthwash with 0.1% chlorhexidine

      •   Perioral skin disinfection with alcohol solution

      •   Antibiotic prophylaxis 2 hours prior to surgery (eg, 2 g amoxicillin intraorally)

      •   Low-speed drilling (between 500 and 600 rpm)

      •   Cooling spray during drilling with chilled sterile saline

      •   Intermittent drilling technique

      •   Use of sharp drills

      It is important to perform a surgical procedure systematically, always applying the same surgical principles.
