Normal vs abnormal anatomy from tooth loss
generates a compromised repaired structure both in
function and form.
Goal will be to develop a view of surgical anatomy as
it relates to surgical procedures
 Hollow and cuboid
shaped Paired bone
with pyramidal base
facing
medially,separted by
nasal fossa.
 Septum in
center,bordered
inferiorly ,bilaterally
by oral cavity.
 Hollow maxilla is
covered by a 3 layered
mucoperiosteum.
 Color –purple –red
 Elastic consistency
 Thin ,yellow and
friable-smokers
 Unrepairable
membrane
perforation.
 Sinus and posterior
teeth.
 Pneumatization of
sinus.
 Most common complication.
 Repair of relatively small (5-10 mm) tears is
commonly done using fast resorbing collagen
membranes and/or by allowing the sinus
membrane to overlap on itself.
 A technique using a cross-linked type I collagen
membrane for predictable repair of large
perforations (> 10 mm) as well as for
circumstances in which no membrane is found is
described.

 Sinus expansion and
faulty Rx planning
• In cases of resorbed
maxilla,sinus is at
crest of RAR
• Bone level may
approximate level of
floor of nasal cavity.
 Inferior turbinate is
5mm-9mm above
nasal floor.
 During sinus lift-graft
should be kept at
least 2mm to avoid
ostium blockage.
 Accessory ostia-30-
40 percent cases
 Nasal endoscopy to
be safe.
• Incisive canal ,found
adjacent to nasal
septum ,8-18 mm
behind anterior
aspect of floor of
nasal fossa.
• May be at level of
crest in resorbed
ridges
 May be chosen by
surgeons for implants
 Goal-engage
pterygoid process
without bone
augmentation-
creating abutment for
FPD.
 Caution-pterygoid
fossa lying superiorly is
avoided_severe
hemorrhage may occur.
 Ptergomaxillary butress
–an area of increased
bone density and
volume is responsible
for transmitting
masticatory forces.
 Anatomic features of
dentulous and
edentulous mandible.
 The muscles,
innervation are of
prime importance
• Severely resorbed
mandible-internal
oblique line at level
with crest of RAR.
• Genial tubercles
superior to crestal
bone,and exposed
neurovascular bundle.
 Implant position is
changed as it relates
to axis of bone
resorbs.
 In anterior
mandible,onlay bone
grafts in 2
stage,or,one stage
may be done.
 Tremendous variation
seen in mental nerve
as it exits the mental
foramen.
 Retraction of alveolar
nerve.
 3 branches of mental
nerve
 Some clinicians consider Mental nerve to be in
Halfway between inferior border of mandible and
alveolar ridge.
 Generally,it is located slightly inferior toward the
border of mandible,although it can be found 1/3rd
inferiorly to mandible than superiorly.
 Relation of inferior
alveolar canal to 1st
2nd and 3rd molars.
 Injury to IAN that remains in atrophied bone and
does not innervate soft tissues is of less
consequence.
 Nerves in bone,when in contact with implant
,account for tenderness,even though implant is
rigid and healthy.
 Lingual nerve-Improper flap reflection may cause
an injury.
 Ipsilateral paresthesia
 Anaesthesia of innervated mucosa.
 Loss of taste.
 reduction of salivary secretion.
 MYLOHYOID Muscle
◦ Structures above
mylohyoid-intraoral
swelling
◦ Sublingual space
infection.
◦ Below mylohyoid –
◦ Submandibular space
infection.-extraoral
swelling
◦ Attaches to genial
tubercles.
◦ Should not be
completely detached -
airway obstruction.
 Bounds
pterygomandibular
space medially,near
insertion at medial
surface of mandible.
 Infection can spread
to paraphayngeal
space-into
mediastinum.
◦ Fibres insert into
condyle, TMJ disk.
◦ Because of angulation
of lateral pterygoid
muscle,mandibular
flexure may be caused
–causing alteration in
mandibular arch
width,pain in patients
with sub-periosteal
implants
 Insertion is into coronoid
process of mandible.
 Surgical exposure
,medially in ramus may
injure tendon of
temporalis-while
harvesting bone from
external oblique ridge,or
placing incision for
subperiosteal implants.
 Complete reflection of
mentalis muscles for
purpose of extension of
subperiosteal implant or
symphyseal intraoral
graft may result in witch’s
chin.
 If muscle is completely
detached to expose
symphysis,then elastic
bandage is applied
externally to chin for 4
days to help in
reattachment of muscle.
 Some patients wearing lower sub-periosteal
implants c/o episodic swelling and pain at the site
of origin of heavymastication or bruxism.
 Myositis of detached muscle may cause it.
 Massetric space infection may result. during
surgery to expose bone for ramus extension
needed for lateral support of sub-periosteal
implant.
 Anatomic sites for
dental implants.
 Orthodontic anchorage
can be derived.
 Healthy teeth can be
moved upto 15 mm
within alveolar process
without compromising
position of remaining
dentition.
 Implant placement is 5
mm distal to 3rd molar.
 Engage between
cortical bone ,between
mandibular retromolar
area and ascending
mandibular ramus.
 Prevent entry into
mandibular canal.
 Surgical anatomy of maxilla and mandible provide
foundation required for safe insertion of dental
implants.
 The anatomy is requisite to understanding of
complications that may occur during surgery ,like
injury to blood vessels or nerves,as well as post –
op complication such as infection.
 This information is important for operator, to deal
with confidence and to avoid complications.

Editor's Notes

  • #4 Normal vs abnormal anatomy from tooth loss generates a compromised repaired structure both in function and form. Goal will be to develop a view of surgical anatomy as it relates to surgical procedures
  • #6 Schneiderian membrane or sinus membrane -0.3-0.8mm
  • #7 1.2nd pm and 1st molar. 2.Negative pressure during inspiration and lack of fn stimulation by teeth-cause pneumatization of maxillary sinus. Generally, in case of maxillary antroplasties ,sinus membrane is not torn due to elasticity
  • #9 .
  • #12 Accessory ostia are found in 30-40% cases ,in cases with extremly resorbed maxillas,in which floor of sinus is level with the floor of the nose,it is wise to identify anatomic structures using nasal endoscopy. It helps as pre-op diagnostic tool to allow identification of potential complications with sinus bone grafts,before obliterating the accessory ostium or contaminating the graft.
  • #14 An implant in this region ,its path comes from maxillary tuberosity and aims into pterygoid portion of of maxillary bone,passing lateral pterygoid plate medially,pterygoid process posteriorly,and superiorly to avoid pterygoid fossa Placement of any implant in this dangerous zone can cause severe hemorrhage of pterygoid muscles and pterygoid plexus. Pterygomaxillary buttress has an area of increased bone density and volume,responsible for transmitting posterior masticatory forces originating from tuberosity to skull base..
  • #22 Posterior mandible is ltd for implant placement because of bone loss and subsequent proximity to IAN and vessels.in dentate indivisuals,distance from mand 1st molar is about 3mm.eg if root length of 1st molar is 12mm,and immd implant is planned ,it is recommended ,that implant is longer than the tooth root….but,if canal is close by,use shorter implant.
  • #25 Bilateral swelling-tracheostomy may have to be performed.
  • #26 Superior pair is attached to muscle-while making impression of subperiosteal implant ,avoid injury to structure.
  • #31 Incisions of these swelling yield no purulent exudate.
  • #33 Given by Eugene Roberts .
  • #35 Surgical anatomy of maxilla and mandible provide foundation required for safe insertion of dental implants.The anatomy is requisite to understanding of complications that may occur during surgery ,like injury to blood vessels or nerves,as well as post –op complication such as infection.This information is important for operator, to deal with confidence and to avoid complications.
