Introduction<br />

These guidelines were designed to serve as a reference<br />

for the dental practitioner to utilize 3i implants and surgical<br />

instruments in immediate occlusal loading of the fully<br />

edentulous mandible.<br />

Initially, occlusal loading of dental implants was governed<br />

by a strict protocol. 1,2 <strong>Immediate</strong> occlusal loading of dental<br />

implants in some cases in the 1960’s resulted in fibrous<br />

encapsulation of the implants, implant mobility and loss of<br />

implants. 3 There are significant differences between immediate<br />

occlusal loading of dental implants and the immediate<br />

restoration of dental implants without occlusal function.<br />

<strong>Immediate</strong> occlusal loading requires multiple implants rigidly<br />

splinted by a fixed prosthesis. <strong>Immediate</strong> restoration of dental<br />

implants can be accomplished with single implants, but the<br />

restorations are contoured to have no occlusal contact in<br />

centric occlusion, lateral working or balancing movements.<br />

Authors have reported favorable results on immediate loading<br />

of dental implants. In 1997, Tarnow et al reported 98%<br />

cumulative survival rates (CSR) 1 to 6 years post-implant<br />

treatment. 4 In 2000, Cooper et al reported 98% CSR 18 months<br />

post-implant treatment. 5 Testori et al (2003) reported one<br />

failure, due to infection, in a study involving 92 OSSEOTITE ®<br />

Implants that were immediately loaded with fixed prostheses<br />

in edentulous mandibles. Testori et al reported a CSR for<br />

OSSEOTITE Implants of 98.9%, which was achieved for up to<br />

48 months of follow-up. 6 The prosthetic cumulative success<br />

rate for the same period was 100%. 6<br />

DIEM, the latin word for day, has been chosen by 3i as the<br />

name for our initiative to incorporate immediate loading<br />

procedures into your practice. Evidence based research will<br />

drive the development of clinician driven guidelines for each<br />

type of immediate loading procedure. This initiative by 3i is<br />

divided into 4 phases:<br />

1. <strong>Immediate</strong> occlusal loading of the fully edentulous mandible.<br />

2. <strong>Immediate</strong> occlusal loading of the fully edentulous maxilla.<br />

<strong>Immediate</strong> non-occlusal loading of the partially edentulous<br />

mandible/maxilla.<br />

3. <strong>Immediate</strong> occlusal loading of the partially edentulous<br />

mandible/maxilla.<br />

4. <strong>Immediate</strong> non-occlusal loading of the single tooth implant.<br />

The following DIEM <strong>Guidelines</strong> for the fully edentulous<br />

mandible have been developed for clinicians by consensus<br />

from a peer leading group of implant surgeons and restorative<br />

dentists. It is intended to provide clinicians interested in<br />

treating patients with <strong>Immediate</strong> <strong>Occlusal</strong> Loading (IOL),<br />

using 3i OSSEOTITE Implants and IOL Components, with<br />

guidelines relative to patient selection, diagnostic work-ups,<br />

surgical parameters and restorative techniques. The guidelines<br />

illustrate the use of OSSEOTITE NT Implants and a new line<br />

of IOL Abutments and IOL Cylinders that were designed for this<br />

treatment concept. The guidelines have been specifically<br />

developed to emphasize simplicity and flexibility in multiple<br />

clinical situations. Patients may be edentulous or dentulous<br />

on the day of surgery. If they are edentulous, implants can be<br />

placed crestally or sub-crestally. If the patient presents with a<br />

hopeless mandibular dentition, the teeth will be extracted and<br />

an alveolectomy performed in order to obtain optimal surgical<br />

sites for implant placement. In addition, it is the responsibility<br />

of the implant clinician to determine the benefits and<br />

limitations of a particular treatment protocol for each patient.<br />

DIEM <strong>Guidelines</strong> are intended to serve as a roadmap to<br />

immediate loading. Once the doctor has become comfortable<br />

performing immediate load procedures they may take a variety<br />

of personally selected detours to enhance their technique.<br />

There are two main objectives to Phase 1 of the DIEM <strong>Guidelines</strong>:<br />

1. To create a full-arch, fixed, implant-supported provisional<br />

restoration for the immediate occlusal loading of an<br />

edentulous mandible.<br />

2. To create a full-arch, fixed, implant-supported provisional<br />

restoration for the immediate occlusal loading of a partially<br />

edentulous mandible, which is to be rendered fully<br />

edentulous as part of the IOL procedure.<br />

Before<br />

After<br />

A determination needs to be made prior to performing an<br />

immediate loading procedure; (1) are the surgical and prosthetic<br />

procedures to be rendered in the same office or (2) is the<br />

patient moving from the surgical office to the prosthetic office.<br />

If the patient is to move between offices, coordination of<br />

appointments is critical.<br />

<strong>Immediate</strong> <strong>Occlusal</strong> Loading<br />

<strong>Guidelines</strong><br />

Mandibular Fully Edentulous<br />

PRE-TREATMENT DIAGNOSTICS:<br />

(Surgeon, Restorative Dentist And Laboratory Technician)<br />

• Medical work up<br />

• Clinical and radiographic evaluation<br />

(1) Periapical X-rays<br />

(2) Panoramic X-rays<br />

(3) CT Scans<br />

• Pre-prosthetic evaluation, articulated casts with record<br />

of vertical dimension<br />

• Verified wax try-in(s) set to 1st molar occlusion if<br />

implants will only be placed between the mental foramina<br />

(if a provisional denture is made)<br />

• Measure gingival thickness. This will facilitate IOL<br />

abutment selection<br />

TREATMENT INDICATIONS:<br />

• Adequate bone quality equal to or greater than Type III<br />

• Bone height equal to or greater than 12mm<br />

to allow for a minimum 10mm implant<br />

• Bone width equal to or greater than 6mm<br />

to allow for a minimum 4mm diameter implant<br />

• Adequate curvature of the arch and space between<br />

mental foramina to permit proper anterior/posterior<br />

spread measurement will allow functional cantilevers<br />

to first molar occlusion<br />

TREATMENT CONTRAINDICATIONS:<br />

• Health complications<br />

• Para-functional habits<br />

• Poor bone quality - Type IV (not able to achieve<br />

primary stability)<br />

• Limited curvature of the arch and space between mental<br />

foramina (will not allow good anterior/posterior spread<br />

measurement to achieve functional cantilevers to 1st<br />

molar occlusion)<br />

• Bone height less than 12mm<br />

• Bone width less than 6mm<br />

A/P SPREAD DEFINED:<br />

• The A/P, or anterior/posterior, spread measurement is a<br />

formula used to calculate the maximum indicated cantilever<br />

length off the posterior-most implant on a fixed restoration.<br />

It is calculated by measuring the distance between two<br />

parallel lines, one drawn across the distal of the posteriormost<br />

implants and one drawn through the center of the<br />

anterior-most implant, and multiplying the result by 1.5. 7<br />

C. Restorative Dentist And Laboratory<br />

• Fabricate a surgical guide stent by duplicating the patient’s<br />

existing denture in clear acrylic resin.<br />

OR<br />

• Using an immediate or provisional denture, fabricate<br />

surgical guide stent in clear acrylic resin from the wax try-in.<br />

OR<br />

• The immediate or provisional denture may be used as<br />

the surgical guide stent.<br />

6


D. Prepare Surgical Guide Stent<br />

• Drill guide holes in the clear guide stent or provisional<br />

denture from 1st premolar to 1st premolar where 5-6<br />

implants will be positioned between the mental foramina<br />

to achieve a good Anterior/Posterior (A/P) spread and<br />

provide cross arch stabilization.<br />

• Open the lingual side of the surgical guide stent using an<br />

acrylic bur.<br />

• Placement beyond the mental foramina is okay if there is<br />

adequate bone.<br />

E. Prepare <strong>Immediate</strong> Or Provisional Denture<br />

• Process the immediate or provisional denture in acrylic<br />

resin from the wax try-in. Make the denture a little thicker<br />

buccolingually than usual for the prosthesis. This will<br />

provide additional strength to the prosthesis.<br />

• Relieve the denture approximately 8mm beyond the<br />

posterior-most implant locations and to the proper depth<br />

if distal extensions are used.<br />

2. SURGERY AND IMPLANT PLACEMENT<br />

A. Try-in Of Denture And Surgical Stent<br />

• If the patient is partially edentulous, cut all remaining teeth<br />

off at gingival crest.<br />

•Verify that the opposing occlusion is stable. If necessary,<br />

add denture adhesive.<br />

• Place adhesive bilaterally in free-end saddle areas of<br />

denture and surgical guide stent.<br />

• Add thin layers of bite registration material to free-end<br />

saddle areas of denture and have patient bite to place. This<br />

will ensure a stable and reproducible seat for the denture.<br />

• Place adhesive bilaterally on occlusal surfaces of<br />

posterior teeth on the denture.<br />

• Place bite registration material on posterior occlusal<br />

surfaces on the denture. Return denture to position and<br />

have patient occlude in maximum intercuspation. This will<br />

produce a stable and reproducible occlusal position.<br />

• Repeat the above process for the surgical stent.<br />

Clinical Tip: Some surgeons prefer to have the bite<br />

registration for the stent recorded in protrusive to improve<br />

access for implant site preparation and implant placement.<br />

• Remove denture(s).<br />

DIEM<br />

<strong>Immediate</strong> <strong>Occlusal</strong> Loading<br />

<strong>Guidelines</strong><br />

Mandibular Fully Edentulous<br />

B. Ridge Preparation<br />

• Make a mid-crestal incision extending along the ridge and<br />

continue beyond the mental foramina, where a releasing<br />

incision is made buccal to lingual. If the patient is partially<br />

edentulous, extend the incision sulcularly around the<br />

remaining roots.<br />

• Visually locate the mental foramina and alveolar nerve<br />

bundles and separate flap 5-10mm beyond this landmark.<br />

• On the alveolar ridge, with a round bur, mark the location<br />

of the inferior alveolar nerve as it exists the mental<br />

foramina for landmarks.<br />

• If the patient is partially edentulous, extract the residual<br />

tooth roots at this time.<br />

• Reduce uneven bone contours to create a level plane.<br />

C. Surgical Placement Of OSSEOTITE NT<br />

Or OSSEOTITE NT Certain Implants<br />

• Position the guide stent in the mouth by seating it on the<br />

retromolar pads and placing the buccal and lingual flanges<br />

in the vestibules as positioning guides.<br />

• Place anterior-most implant first followed by the two<br />

posterior-most implants. Next, split the difference<br />

between the anterior and posterior implants and place<br />

the final implants.<br />

• Place implants using the OSSEOTITE NT Drilling Sequence<br />

for crestal or sub-crestal placement to achieve adequate<br />

primary stability for immediate loading.<br />

NOTE:<br />

When placing External Hex Implants do not remove the<br />

implant mounts at this time.<br />

D. <strong>Immediate</strong> Load Determination<br />

• Place the IIPDTS or IIPDTL placement driver (for Certain)<br />

or a MDR10 hand-piece connector (for external hex) in a<br />

torque device.<br />

• Apply forward torque of 20Ncm to each implant to<br />

check stability.<br />

• If the implant does not move and is stable in the bone, the<br />

implant may be immediately loaded.<br />

• If the implant moves and does not feel stable in the bone, the<br />

implant should not be immediately loaded. A single or twostage<br />

surgical technique may be used on a non-loaded implant.<br />

• <strong>Immediate</strong> <strong>Occlusal</strong> Loading ideally includes all implants in<br />

the arch. However, if at least 4 implants are determined to<br />

be stable, the provisional prosthesis may be attached to<br />

and supported by them while the others are not loaded.<br />

8


E. For External Connection Implants<br />

• Remove all mounts from the external hex implants.<br />

F. Select And Place IOL Abutments<br />

• Select an IOL Abutment height for each implant so that the<br />

interface will be 1-2mm above the level of the gingiva. The<br />

abutment platforms should be as level as possible.<br />

• Place an IOL Abutment on each implant using the<br />

Abutment Driver.<br />

• Torque the abutment screws to 20Ncm using the Abutment<br />

Driver Tip and a torque device.<br />

G. Suture Gingiva<br />

• Suture the gingival tissue closed around the IOL Abutments<br />

using resorbable suture.<br />

• If the patient is to be sent to the restorative dentist, place<br />

the IOL Healing Caps on the abutments using the large<br />

hex driver.<br />

<strong>Guidelines</strong><br />

Mandibular Fully Edentulous<br />

3. RESTORATIVE<br />

A. Surgeon Or Restorative Dentist<br />

Provisional Restoration<br />

• Cut a piece of rubber dam to follow the anterior arch curve.<br />

• Cut holes at the implant locations using a rubber dam<br />

punch so it fits over the abutments.<br />

• Adapt the rubber dam to the ridge where acrylic will be<br />

added into the denture. This will separate the surgical and<br />

prosthetic fields.<br />

• Fill the anterior portion of the denture with heavy bodied<br />

impression putty.<br />

• Articulate the lower denture with the opposing using the<br />

bite registration and have the patient close onto the IOL<br />

Abutments. Allow the putty to set.<br />

• Remove the denture(s) and drill holes in the provisional<br />

denture at the abutment locations. Drill each hole to the<br />

approximate diameter of the temporary cylinders.<br />

B. Place IOL Temporary Cylinders<br />

• Place the IOL Temporary Cylinders on the abutments<br />

and attach using hand tightened hex Gold-Tite<br />

retaining screws.<br />

• Reposition the rubber dam into the grooves of the IOL<br />

Temporary Cylinders (see insert).<br />

C. Place IOL Distal Extensions<br />

• If you are using the distal extensions, slide the distal<br />

extension support bars over the two posterior-most<br />

temporary cylinders and position them so they will support<br />

the distally extended posterior teeth (see insert).<br />

• Apply a small amount of acrylic resin around the distal<br />

extensions to hold them in proper position.<br />

10


D. Adjust The Denture<br />

• Try in the provisional denture over the temporary cylinders<br />

and distal extensions.<br />

• Relieve the acrylic resin at the cylinder and distal extension<br />

locations as needed so the denture passively seats on the<br />

edentulous ridge and retromolar pads.<br />

E. Verify Occlusion<br />

• Evaluate the occlusion to verify that there is no interference<br />

with the cylinders and the denture is fully seated. If one or<br />

more cylinders interferes, reduce its height only enough to<br />

clear the opposing occlusion at this time. Do not prepare<br />

the cylinder flush with the denture at this time unless the<br />

occlusion requires it.<br />

• Place access hole filler (cotton, wax, etc.) inside the<br />

cylinders to prevent acrylic resin from entering the<br />

access openings.<br />

F. Lute Denture To Temporary Cylinders<br />

• Mix hard autopolymerizing acrylic resin and place in<br />

a syringe.<br />

• Place the acrylic resin inside the denture relief area and<br />

into the retention groove around the temporary cylinder<br />

on the anterior-most implant.<br />

• Have the patient close into the established vertical using<br />

the bite registration to verify the denture is in the correct<br />

position. Maintain centric occlusion while the acrylic resin<br />

is setting.<br />

• Allow the acrylic resin to set per the manufacturer’s<br />

instructions.<br />

• Remove the access hole filler from the luted cylinder and<br />

remove the hex screw.<br />

• Continue with luting all other cylinders into the denture.<br />

<strong>Guidelines</strong><br />

Mandibular Fully Edentulous<br />

G. Remove Denture From Mouth<br />

And Reduce Cylinders<br />

• Remove all access hole filler from the temporary cylinders.<br />

• Unscrew the retaining screws and remove the denture<br />

from the abutments.<br />

• Remove the rubber dam from the mouth.<br />

• Using a carbide cross-cut bur adjust the heights of the<br />

cylinders to conform with the lingual surface of the denture.<br />

H. Modify Denture Into Fixed Provisional<br />

Restoration<br />

• Place polishing protectors onto the cylinder interfaces.<br />

• Add acrylic resin to any areas with voids.<br />

• Verify the stability of the cylinders.<br />

• Using an acrylic bur remove all flanges, the acrylic resin<br />

on ridge contact areas and all excess acrylic from the<br />

bottom of the denture between the cylinders and posterior<br />

of the first molars.<br />

• Remove the polishing protectors.<br />

I. Adjust Occlusion<br />

• Place the provisional restoration on the IOL Abutments<br />

and attach using retaining screws until finger tight.<br />

• Adjust the occlusion using articulating paper into group<br />

function to ensure even distribution of support, minimizing<br />

lateral forces.<br />

• Mark any areas where acrylic may be contacting the tissue.<br />

• Remove the provisional restoration.<br />

12


J. Polish The Fixed Provisional Restoration<br />

• Place polishing protectors onto the cylinder interfaces.<br />

• Relieve any marked areas.<br />

• They are in place! Polish the entire provisional denture<br />

so surfaces are smooth.<br />

• Remove the polishing protectors.<br />

K. Seat The Fixed Provisional Restoration<br />

• Place the provisional denture back onto the IOL Abutments<br />

and attach using the Hex Gold-Tite Retaining Screws.<br />

•Torque the screws to 10Ncm using the large hex driver tip<br />

and a torque device.<br />

L. Complete Fixed Provisional Restoration<br />

• Place a protective material over the screw heads, seal<br />

the access holes with acrylic resin and polish.<br />

• The provisional denture should not be removed or<br />

loosened during the following six weeks.<br />

• Instruct the patient on hygiene care of the<br />

provisional restoration.<br />

• Place the patient on a soft diet for two weeks.<br />

• Patient should be seen after two weeks for follow-up.<br />

13


M. Final Impression For Definitive Restoration<br />

• The final impression of the definitive restoration may be<br />

made 4-6 weeks after the surgical appointment.<br />

• Refer to the 3i Restorative Manual for instructions on<br />

fabrication of the definitive restoration.<br />

This manual will instruct practitioners in the use of 3i’s implant systems. The success of any dental implant system depends upon proper use of the components and<br />

instrumentation. This manual is not intended for use as a substitute for professional training and experience.<br />
