Bone formation on titanium


Bone formation on titanium
Length of Implant
*   Ranges from 6mm to 20mm
*   It is the measured from the height of the crest of the ridge to 1mm from the nearest anatomic limitation
*   Aim in selecting length is bicortical stabilization
Diameter of the Implant
*   Must be such that atleast 1 mm of healthy bone remains around the implant both buccally & lingually
*   Bone density also governs implant width.
*   Wider implants have better bone contact & greater cross section at the neck of the implant.
