Introduction: We present a case report on six patients who underwent combined approach to improve the cosmetic appearance and functional performance of their buried penis. Aim: To our both penis erectile dysfunction. Methods: In one surgery, we performed: malleable penile prosthesis, ventral phalloplasty, suspensory ligament release followed by suprapubic lipectomy. Results: Postoperatively, al...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to assess the survival rates and interproximal bone levels for Osseotite implants that were restored with fixed provisional crowns without occlusion immediately after implant placement. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ninety-three implants were placed in 38 partially edentulous patients. All implants were immediately restored with prefabricated abutments and cement...

The goal of this study was to provide evidence to support simplified treatment of mandibular edentulism using denture fabrication and implant placement to circumvent the need for second-stage surgeries or prosthodontic superstructures. A 5-year prospective clinical trial is reported, which involved treatment of mandibular edentulism using the single-stage surgical placement of a TiOblast microt...

AIM this study compared the outcome of immediate non-occlusal loading with conventional loading for single implants in the maxillary aesthetic zone. It was hypothesized that immediate non-occlusal loading is not inferior to conventional loading. MATERIALS AND METHODS sixty-two patients with a missing maxillary anterior tooth were randomly assigned to be treated with an implant that was either...

Introduction: The maxillary anterior region poses the highest number of aesthetic challenges in implant dentistryas any tooth loss leads to bone resorption and collapse gingival architecture leaving inadequatebone for placement. However, immediate placement provisionalization has been a viableoption replacing failing teeth as it preserves vertical existing osseous gingivalarchitecture. A proper...

Context: For many years, the standard protocol for implant placement was the delayed method which is to wait until the bone is matured after tooth extraction. Evidence Acquisition: The increasing demand for shorter rehabilitation times have led to the introduction of immediate implant placement. Although this method offers many advantages like minimal number of surgical procedures, less morbidi...

PURPOSE To present the outcomes of immediately loaded single implants placed in the anterior maxilla. METHODS Over a 2-year period, all patients referred to a private clinic were considered for enrolment in this study. Inclusion criteria were single-tooth placement in postextraction sockets or healed sites of the anterior maxilla. All implants were immediately loaded and followed for a period...
