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.

Treatment of infections associated with surgical implants.
New England Journal of Medicine, 2004About half of all nosocomial infections are associated with indwelling devices. Infections associated with implanted surgical devices are particularly difficult to deal with because they can require prolonged antibiotic treatment and repeated surgical ...

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 ...

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 ...

Problems with prostheses on implants: A retrospective study
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1994Prosthetic parameters for implant success have not been well defined but should include patient satisfaction and prosthesis maintenance, including adjustments and repairs. In addition, differences between fixed and removable implant-supported prostheses (ISPs) should be quantified.

Soldering technique for osseointegrated implant prostheses
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1990This article describes a method for making changes in the alignment of superstructures for osseointegrated implants. After a cast is made from a transfer impression, the teeth and plastic are removed from the framework. The framework is sectioned into as many pieces as necessary to realign it on the analogs in the cast. The pieces are held in soldering

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 ...
