Structural Joints: Fibrous Joints01:03

Structural Joints: Fibrous Joints

4.1K
Fibrous joints are a type of joint where the bones are connected by fibrous connective tissue. These joints provide stability and minimal to no movement between the articulating bones. There are three types of fibrous joints.
Suture
All the bones of the skull, except for the mandible, are joined to each other by a fibrous joint called a suture. The fibrous connective tissue found at a suture strongly unites the adjacent skull bones and thus helps to protect the brain and form the face. In...

Structural Joints: Cartilaginous Joints

4.5K
As the name indicates, at a cartilaginous joint, the adjacent bones are united by cartilage, a tough but flexible type of connective tissue. Unlike synovial joints, these types of joints lack a joint cavity and involve bones joined together by either hyaline cartilage or fibrocartilage.
There are two types of cartilaginous joints:
Synchondrosis
A synchondrosis ("joined by cartilage") is a cartilaginous joint where bones are connected by hyaline cartilage. Synchondrosis may be temporary...

Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Prosthodontics
  • Implantology

Background:

  • Addressing the need for stable and retentive prostheses in edentulous patients.
  • Highlighting implant-retained removable full dentures as a reliable option for unfavorable anatomophysiological conditions.
  • Optimizing prosthetic balance through innovative implant solutions.

Observation:

  • Case study of an 82-year-old male patient with a negative mandibular crest and tonic musculature.
  • Successful implementation of a piezographic mandibular prosthesis retained by a single symphyseal implant.
  • Patient refused bone augmentation surgery, opting for a less invasive implant solution.

Findings:

  • The single symphyseal implant-retained denture demonstrated excellent stability and retentiveness.
  • The patient reported satisfactory comfort and improved masticatory efficiency.
  • Enhanced psychological integration of the prosthesis was observed.

Implications:

  • Suggests a single symphyseal implant is a simple, efficient, and cost-effective solution for complete denture retention in octogenarians.
  • Supports the use of implant-retained removable dentures in challenging clinical scenarios.
  • Calls for further studies with larger patient cohorts to validate these findings.
