Maintenance of Osseointegrated Implant Prostheses
Dental Update, 2006Implant-retained prostheses need to be re-evaluated on a regular basis. This should include review of the effectiveness of oral hygiene procedures to maintain soft tissue health, evaluation of the integrity and function of the prosthetic superstructure and comparison of radiographic bone levels at appropriate intervals.

Development of an Implanted Neural Prostheses
2011To research and design a type of implantable functional electrical stimulator for restoring the injured peripheral nervous system. The crucial circuits of the implantable neural prosthesis were designed based on the digital signal processor TMS320VC54x and programmable logic device XC95144XL, corresponding program were developed and an experiment was ...

Auricular prostheses and osseointegrated implants
Implant Dentistry, 1995A clinical study of 40 craniofacial implants placed in 13 auricular defects was conducted over a 6-year period. Implant-retained prostheses were fabricated, the implant success rate was determined, and the soft tissue responses were recorded at regular intervals.

Outcome assessment of implant-supported prostheses
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1998From the dental professional's standpoint, implant rehabilitation offers dramatically improved treatment alternatives to orally disabled patients. However, what a patient perceives as important to their function and satisfaction with their prostheses may be quite different from what the dentist believes are significant health-related improvements.To ...

occlusion in implant prostheses
2023There are many biological and physiological differences between natural teeth and implants. So, it isn’t appropriate to apply the occlusion rules of natural teeth directly to implant-supported restorations. One of the most important reasons for this is the absence of natural periodontal tissues around the tooth around the implant.

Gingival augmentation for osseointegrated implant prostheses
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1986A method of solving some problems inherent with osseointegrated implant prosthesis has been presented. A removable flange can reestablish lip support or block escape of unwanted air while allowing the access necessary for competent hygiene procedures. Overdentures may be indicated to provide the prosthetic gingival surface necessary for adequate food ...

The idea of recovering lost body functions by using available materials and technologies is documented even in antiquity. The ancient Egyptians used linen saturated with rubber as wound dressings, the Aztec civilisation used gold in dental fillings, Romans had urological catheters, while the first prosthetic hands, feet and legs appeared during the ...

Cochlear implant prostheses: Strategies and progress
Annals of Biomedical Engineering, 1980Progress in development of elements of higher-generation cochlear implant devices is briefly summarized. Initial tests with early model devices indicate that these devices will gain wide application, as aids capable of effecting significant levels of speech recognition in the profoundly (totally) deaf.

Speech Processing for Cochlear Implant Prostheses
Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 1984The transformation of speech into electrical signals which can stimulate the auditory nerve in order to create hearing sensations that carry speech information depends on many factors. These include the limitations imposed by the current state-of-the-art in otological surgery, mieroelectronic and micromechanical technology, and knowledge of the ...
