Residual Excess Cement & Peri-implant Disease
 cemented single unit implant crowns
 39 consecutive patients with 42 implants with peri-implant disease
 12 of the same patients had 20 implants without disease and without detectable
subgingival cement
 34 of 42 the test implants had Residual Subgingival Cement ( 81%)
 After Cement Removal 25 of the 33 (74%) no longer has signs of peri-implant
disease
(74% of the 81% = 60%)

Albert Einstein “Intellectuals Solve Problems,
Geniuses Prevent them.”
Treatment of Complications
can be Very Expensive!
What Determined the Margin Design for Replacement Teeth?
The design of margins reflected available
technology to create prosthetics
Feather margin – soft gold at the thin
margins were burnished towards the tooth
retainers to form a seal.
Chamfer & Butt – responded to the needs of
porcelain and the availability of the high speed.
The older cements also required high pressure installation to
reduce film thickness and compensate for their low
compressive strength and solubility at the margins.

Excess cement -
1. can be difficult to control**
2. can go deep into the subgingival spaces*,**
3. can be difficult to detect and remove**
4. is a risk factor for periodontitis and peri-implant disease***
5. can be removed by endoscopic means or after surgical access***

Gingival Effects Discovered! 28
When “Gingiva” was present on the model – Excess Cement was
still projected under the Gingiva, regardless of Margin Design!

How much volume reduction do
you need, to avoid both
overfilling and underfilling the
prosthesis?
31
Cement voids under a prosthesis
can be very difficult to detect and
correct
Loose Control over Cement Volume and Cement
Distribution using these techniques
Why do we cement restorations?
1) Retention
2) Fill Space to Prevent VOIDS
32
Are VOIDS Dangerous?
a) Breading grounds for oral pathogens – top 3 reasons prosthetics on
natural teeth fail and can cause peri-implant-disease
b) Very difficult to detect and treat
c) Reduce retention
d) Discoloration
e) Stink and taste bad Can VOIDS be Prevented?
1) OVERFILL the prosthesis with cement and
extrude excess cement from around the entire
margin to prevent voids
2) Apply cement in such a way as to prevent air
entrapment
3) Firmly hold the Prosthesis down while the cement
sets
33
VOIDS can be very difficult to detect and correct
VOIDS can be PREVENTED by Technique!

Low Prosthesis Installation Pressure
34
Reduce Speed of cementation to
1) reduce pressure of the excess
cement exiting the margins and
2) reduce pressure buildup under
the prosthesis.
Use a wider 80-100 micron cement
space will reduce resistance to
cement flow.

Technique?

2. Because We Can! Is it Free?
3. Cannot Control Cement and Gave Up Trying
Dental Implant Prosthetics: Achieving Retrievability and Reducing Treatment Complications by using a Modified
Installation Technique. ELA Svoboda, Oral Health October 2016, pgs 8-20. also www.ReverseMargin.com
Is Retrievability
Specific to the
Screw-in Technique?
a.Yes
b.No
59
Retrievability is NOT
Specific to the
Screw-in Technique!
60
It is a Result of
“Retrievability Features”
of the Implant-Abutment-
Prosthesis Complex
Allow the
Abutment-Prosthesis Complex
to be removed from the mouth and
re-installed without any critical
damage.
“You can take it out and put it back
again and it still works”
61
Retrievability Features
for Screw-in Prosthetics
Retrievability Feature 1 62
Working Path of insertion
parallel alignment of implants
and sensitive to alignment
remaining teeth ……….
Can we really make implants and prosthetics
parallel to adjacent teeth and each other
in 3 Dimensional Space?
a. Yes
b. No
63
Do they make it easier to fool
ourselves about fit?
Are they stable?
Multiple units may require the use of multi-unit abutments to build a
little tolerance to off-angle implants for the part that telescopes into
the implant (internal hex, taper fit) or abutment (external hex).
Retrievability Feature 2
64
Use of special Angled Screw Channel (ASC) Abutment and special screw
heads to help make more favorable access hole locations and reduce
treatment related cantilevers.
Retrievability Feature 3
Sadly …. None of these Features Solve the
Implant-Abutment Misfit Problem if …
65
…. the abutment-prosthesis complex is assembled on
the inaccurate lab model first.
Too bad!

Retrievability – Because We Can!
1. Repair and rejuvenate hybrid prosthetics*** - Prevent by use of more durable
materials
2. Control Excess Cement Prevent - Use the Cement Control System
3. Replace and tighten loose abutment screws Prevent - Use Genuine parts and
proper torque values (2X), optimize the implant-abutment connection, reduce
or avoid cantilevers, use night guards … do not need retrievability to tighten
screws – just need access to screw
4. Gain access to soft tissue under prosthesis Prevent complications, avoid
cantilevers, work around prosthesis
66
It is Free? Is it worth it?
 site development procedures $$$$
 use of guided implant surgery $$
 expensive additional parts and lab work dealing with screw access
holes and their maintenance $$$
 may create cantilevers that are difficult to maintain, are mechanically
unstable and create space for oral pathogens $$$$
 Current techniques cause an implant-abutment misfit $$$$$

Why Reduce Complications? 87
This Can be Very Costly
1. Loss of Productive Time
2. Working in a hostile environment
3. Loss of patients and negative referrals
4. Cost of retreatment
5. Possible college and legal action

Additional Information:
If you are viewing a PDF Format version of my Powerpoint Presentation, you will not be able
to watch the Videos V1 to V5. I feel that these videos are crucial to your understanding of the
characteristics of cement flow during the intra-oral cementation process.
I invite you to study these videos on my website www.ReverseMargin.com
There are nuances to the my prosthesis installation system. Once I have my custom
abutment seated, the prosthesis installation is much easier and better controlled than most
current techniques. The Cement Control System promises to reduce treatment complications
related to implant-abutment misfits and residual subgingival cement by 60% (extrapolated
from the study by Wilson 2009). In addition it will help you understand and prevent
complications related to cement voids that can be caused by some proposed installation
techniques. This work is also relevant to prosthetics cemented onto natural teeth. The
fluid dynamics are the same.
I look forward to your comments and to your feedback regarding your experience with the my
system. My above website has information regarding Laboratory support.
I also look forward to opportunities to present my work to your Study Clubs and Academic
Institutions. Its all about reducing complications.

The older cements also required high pressure installation to reduce film thickness and compensate for their low compressive strength and solubility at the margins. 19

  • 91. Additional Information: If you are viewing a PDF Format version of my Powerpoint Presentation, you will not be able to watch the Videos V1 to V5. I feel that these videos are crucial to your understanding of the characteristics of cement flow during the intra-oral cementation process. I invite you to study these videos on my website www.ReverseMargin.com There are nuances to the my prosthesis installation system. Once I have my custom abutment seated, the prosthesis installation is much easier and better controlled than most current techniques. The Cement Control System promises to reduce treatment complications related to implant-abutment misfits and residual subgingival cement by 60% (extrapolated from the study by Wilson 2009). In addition it will help you understand and prevent complications related to cement voids that can be caused by some proposed installation techniques. This work is also relevant to prosthetics cemented onto natural teeth. The fluid dynamics are the same. I look forward to your comments and to your feedback regarding your experience with the my system. My above website has information regarding Laboratory support. I also look forward to opportunities to present my work to your Study Clubs and Academic Institutions. Its all about reducing complications. 91
