Immediate prosthesis

Immediate prosthesis

Impacted tooth

Tooth that has not erupted

Implant

The implant is a supporting pillar anchored in the jawbone. This support pillar is screwed into the bone instead of a lost tooth and then grows firmly. It serves as a support for bridges or single crowns.

Indication

Indication

Individual prophylaxis

Professional teeth cleaning. Since not all plaque can be removed one hundred percent with a toothbrush, dental floss or dental woods, professionals have a number of instruments whose handling requires special training, i.e. they cannot be used in everyday dental care at home.

Infiltration anesthesia

The area to be anesthetized is infiltrated fan-shaped by one or more punctures.

Initial caries

Caries in the early stages (chalk spots), which manifests itself in the form of a chalky enamel surface. By fluoride application, the further development of caries can be prevented and remineralization achieved.

Injection

Placing the syringe, not only at the dentist

Inlay (inlay filling)

Filling of the cavity with gold or ceramic, generally made by the dental technician

Interdental

Interdental space

Interdental brush

Interdental brush: small, fine brush for the hard-to-reach interdental spaces

Interim prosthesis

Denture that is inserted to prevent the teeth from wandering in the gap until the final one is ready.

Intercuspidation

Joining of the upper and lower jaw teeth in maximum multi-point contact

Intracoronal

In the crown

Intraoral

In the mouth

Intraoral camera

Electronic camera for video recording in the mouth

Invasive technique

Graft (own bone) from jaw angle, chin and hip region is first brought as an implant bed to the place of the dental implants to be inserted later and must heal for 3-6 months. After that, the implant is placed.

In vitro

Outside the body

In vivo

On the living object

Incisal

Along the edge of the incisor
