Although titanium and its alloys are extensively used in orthopedics dentistry fields, implant failures still happen because of implant-associated infections. Herein, Au@Ag@Pt core–shell nanorods with noble metal combination were fabricated assembled on medical surface the antibacterial activity biocompatibility investigated. The results showed that rates Ti–Au@Ag@Pt against S. epidermidis P. a...

ABSTRACT Introduction: There is no consensus as to which cemented or screwed retention system best avoid bone loss around the implant from a fixed implant-supported restoration. Objective: To evaluate prosthesis systems on screw and implants, regarding: loss, survival failure rate, biological complications microbiological analysis. Methods: A search was made for scientific articles that contemp...

Purpose. Implant therapy plays an important role in contemporary dentistry with high rates of long-term success. However, in recent years, the incidence of peri-implantitis and implant failures has significantly increased. The peripheral giant cell granuloma (PGCG) rarely occurs in peri-implant tissues and it is clinically comparable to the lesions associated with natural teeth. Therefore, the ...

The placement of dental implants in the anterior maxilla is a challenge for clinicians because of patients’ exacting esthetic demands and difficult pre-existing anatomy. This article presents anatomic and surgical considerations for these demanding indications for implant therapy. First, potential causes of esthetic implant failures are reviewed, discussing anatomic factors such as horizontal o...

PURPOSE To systematically review the literature on the role of bruxism as a risk factor for the different complications on dental implant-supported rehabilitations. MATERIAL AND METHODS A systematic search in the National Library of Medicine's Medline Database was performed to identify all peer-reviewed papers in the English literature assessing the role of bruxism, as diagnosed with any othe...

PURPOSE To compare the clinical effectiveness of two implant systems: Way Milano and Kentron (Geass, Pozzuolo del Friuli, UD, Italy). MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 64 patients requiring at least two single crowns or partial fixed dental prostheses supported by a maximum of three implants had their sites randomised according to a split-mouth design to receive both implant systems at six cen...

A 75-year-old male had failed to respond conservative therapy for erectile dysfunction and had undergone insertion of a malleable penile prosthesis in 1995. Twenty years after the initial implant he presented with right-sided prosthesis localized in the buttock. There was no infection. The prosthesis was extracted through an incision in the right hip. As in the recent case, mechanical failures ...

BACKGROUND Correction of fixed spinal imbalance in a sagittal and/or coronal plane frequently needs a tricolumnar wedge resection when the deformity is rigid. Complications associated with deformity correction surgery are pseudoarthrosis and implant failure located along the construct. The purposes of this study were to assess comparative rates of pseudoarthrosis (implant failure) at weaker poi...

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The replacement of lost teeth with dental implants is a widespread treatment whose associated problems are also frequently encountered. Nevertheless, the factors associated with early implant failure have not been well documented. Further analyses of the factors influencing osseointegration establishment are required to maximize the predictability of the procedure and minim...
