EARLY CRESTAL BONE STABILITY AROUND SUPRACRESTALY PLACED DENTAL IMPLANTS. A CASE SERIES

Crestal Bone Loss Around Dental Implants; A Short Communication

Many studies described several parameters which are supposed to determine success or failure in longterm evaluations of dental implants. However, the relationship between crestal bone loss around implants and the location of implant-abutment connection in the bone still needs further investigations.The subgingival microgap between the implant and the abutment, which creates higher bone level re...

The maintenance of crestal bone around dental implants

The first report in the literature to quantify early crestal bone loss was a 15-year retrospective study that evaluated implants placed in edentulous jaws. In this study, Adell et al. reported an average of 1.2 mm marginal bone loss from the first thread during healing and the first year after loading. In contrast with the bone loss during the first year, there was an average of only 0.1 mm bon...

Comparison of crestal bone loss around dental implants placed in healed sites using flapped and flapless techniques: a systematic review.

BACKGROUND The aim of the present systematic review is to compare the crestal bone loss (CBL) around dental implants placed in healed sites using flapped and flapless surgical techniques. METHODS The focused question was, "Does flapped and flapless surgical technique influence CBL around dental implants placed in healed sites?" Databases were searched from 1975 up to and including May 2014 us...
