| dental implantation, endosseous, endodontic | Insertion of a tapered rod through the root canal into the periapical osseous structure to lengthen the existing root and provide individual tooth stabilization. (12 Dec 1998) |

| implantation cyst | Intradermal or subcutaneous saclike structure, the wall of which is stratified epithelium containing keratohyalin granules. (12 Dec 1998) |
| implantation graft | Placing of Davis graft's deep into the interstices of granulation tissue. (05 Mar 2000) |
| implantation theory of the production of endometriosis | That, at the time of menstruation, cells of the uterine mucosa pass through the fallopian tubes and escape into the pelvic cavity where they implant themselves on the peritoneum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| interstitial implantation | Implantation in which the blastocyst lies within the substance of the endometrium, as in humans and guinea pigs. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ovum implantation | Endometrial implantation of the blastocyst. (12 Dec 1998) |
| ovum implantation, delayed | Delay of embryonal development whereby the blastocyst remains in the uterine cavity for a variable period of time before attaching to the endometrium and continuing its development. (12 Dec 1998) |
| eccentric implantation | Implantation in which the blastocyst lies in a uterine crypt, as in the mouse, rat, and hamster. (05 Mar 2000) |
