INTRODUCTION
Failed Implant
Failure process has
reached the irreversible
state
# Marginal bone loss
reaching the apical 1/3 of
implant mobility
Thin peri fixtural
radiolucency
Classification of Implant
Failures
According to Branemark et al
Gingival problems
- Proliferatative gingivitis
- Fistula formation
Mechanical complications
- Fixture fractures
- Fracture of prostheses, gold screws, abutment
According to Misch
Surgical failure
Intermediate implant
failure
Complications/Factors
leading to implant failures
.Surgical factors (early failures)
Stage I surgery
1) Overheating of bone - necrosis,osteomyelitis
2) Lack of primary stability - bone loss
3) Infection
4) Lack of osseointegration
5) Poor placement or angulation, slips, eccentric drills
6) Damage to vital structures
7) Implant fracture
8) Inadequate no. of implants
Stage II surgery
1) Loose abutment
2) Poor fixtures
3) Early loading by
prosthesis
4) Poor abutments
Prosthetic factors
(late failures)
1.Improper design, shape, contours
2.Poor fit of prostheses
3.Occlusal forces
4.Inaccurate framework
5.Cantilever extension
6.Framework fracture, prosthesis
fracture
7.Functional problems eg. speech
Peri Implantitis
Definition- American Academy of
Periodontology defines Peri implantitis as
progressive Peri implant bone loss in
conjunction with a soft tissue
inflammatory
lesion.
Causes :
Bacterial Accumulation
Overloading or
Combination
ETIOLOGIC FACTORS
Two primary etiologic factors are acknowledged today
as causative in peri implant marginal bone loss:
Bacterial
infection
Biomechanical
overload
Biomechanical Overload
Bone loss at the coronal aspect of implants can
result form biomechanical overloading and the
resultant microfractures at the coronal aspect of the
implant-bone interface. The loss of osseointegration
in this region results in apical down growth of
epithelium and connective tissue.

BACTERIAL INFECTIONS
Most authors have assumed that peri-implant diseases
(mucositis, peri-implantitis) are comparable to periodontal
diseases in that they are primarily plaque-induced.
If plaque accumulates on the implant surface, the sub epithelial
connective
tissue
becomes

number
CLASSIFICATION
Classification Peri-implantitis
Peri-implantitis
- Class 1
Peri-implantitis
- Class 2
Peri-implantitis
- Class 3
Peri-implantitis
- Class 4
Peri-implantitis - Class 1
Slight horizontal bone loss with minimal peri-implant
defects
Peri-implantitis class 2
Moderate horizontal bone loss with isolated vertical
defects.
Peri-implantitis class 3
Moderate to advanced horizontal bone loss with broad,
circular bony defects.
Peri-implantitis class 4
Advanced horizontal bone loss with broad, circumferential
vertical defects, as well as loss of the oral and/or vestibular
bony wall.
b) Thread
pitch:
smaller the pitch more
will be the surface
c) Thread depth:
increases surface area
Implant length :
Implant width :
Host factors
Patient dissatisfaction with the result.
Inadequate patient follow-up
Failure to maintain hygiene leading to periodontal
breakdown
Para functional habits
Systemic health( medical complications)
Medications- alter tissue metabolism and repair
Social habits like smoking, stress,alcohol abuse affect
wound healing
Poor bone quality and quantity - a vascular bone,bone
density,
type of bone,etc.
Prosthodontic consideration in
implant failure
Esthetic failure
Most common causes of esthetic
failure is loss of the interdental papilla
or Cervical positioning of the facial
gingival margin or both.
This often is caused by the surgeons
failure to take into account the patents
soft tissue needs before or during surgery
Possible rotations
A total of six rotations may develop about three clinical co
ordinate axes.

IMPORTANT GUIDELINES TO
FOLLOW
supported restoration
No balancing contacts on cantilevers.
No guidance on single implants.
Freedom in centric.

AVOIDANCE
OF CANTILEVER LENGTH.
maximum 10 and 20 mm is advised.
7 mm is optimum .
