D0210 intraoral – comprehensive series of radiographic images A radiographic survey of the whole mouth intended to display the crowns and roots of all teeth, periapical areas, interproximal areas and alveolar bone including edentulous areas.
A patient with a fully edentulous mandible is ready to receive an implant/abutment supported overdenture. The oral surgeon performs the first stage surgery to place the implant fixture (aka “post” or “body”). After osseointegration, the surgeon performs a second stage surgery and places a prefabricated abutment before referring for completion of the prosthesis.
For instance, a tooth may migrate into an edentulous space, but that movement does not change its morphology. Similarly, placement of an implant body need not be in an anatomic tooth position, but the prosthesis placed is the morphological equivalent of a missing tooth or range of teeth.
