Abstract Background Implants are a predictable and well-established treatment method in dentistry. Nevertheless, looking at possible failures of dental implants, early late loss have to be distinguished. The intent the study was report microbiological findings on surface implants with severe peri-implantitis, which had explanted. Methods 53 specimens from 48 patients without general illnesses b...

Rough surfaced implants have been reported to favor early bone healing than smooth surfaced implants. Among various methods introduced to roughen the implant surface, coating with calcium phosphate(CaP) is one of them. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the bone healing response of anodized implants with two different coating thickness of CaP(200 nm and 500 nm) deposited by ion beam assi...

The purpose of this study was to examine the success rate of paramedian palatal Orthosystem first- and second-generation implants used for anchorage in orthodontic treatment in patients treated by one experienced orthodontist. The records of 143 patients (90 female, 53 male, median age: 15.7 years, range: 10.2-50.9) receiving 145 palatal implants of the first or second generation (Orthosystem, ...

Poor tibial component fit can lead to issues including pain, loosening and subsidence. Morphometric data, from 30 patients undergoing UKA were utilized; comparing size, match and fit between patient-specific and off-the-shelf implants. CT images were prospectively obtained and implants modeled in CAD, utilizing sizing templates with off-the-shelf and CAD designs with patient-specific implants. ...

UNLABELLED The aim of this study is to analyze the success of extraoral osseointegrated implants used to support designed to rehabilitate craniofacial deformities. METHOD This study was based on the retrospective assessment of charts from 59 patients submitted to cancer surgery and who received 164 extraoral implants to contain facial prosthesis. RESULTS Among 164 implants, 42 were fixed in...

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the gingival connective tissue response to screw-type titanium implants coated with Type I collagen nanofibers, which were prepared using the electrospray deposition method. Implants were immediately inserted into the socket of maxillary first molars after the extraction. Undecalcified sections after 4 weeks implantation were histologically observed....

Dental implants provide a restorative tool to support crowns, bridge abutments, and removable dentures. Osseointegrated implants are titanium posts that are surgically implanted in alveolar bone. A tight immobile bond (osseointegration) forms between bone and titanium, and prosthetic and restorative fixtures are attached to the implants. Titanium implants differ from natural teeth, which may ma...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to compare the initial stability as insertion and removal torque and the clinical applicability of novel orthodontic zirconia micro-implants made using a powder injection molding (PIM) technique with those parameters in conventional titanium micro-implants. METHODS Sixty zirconia and 60 titanium micro-implants of similar design (diameter, 1.6 mm; length, 8....

The hypothesis of the present study was that immediate loading of implant-supported restorations replacing single missing teeth could be a successful procedure. The present study compared the clinical success of immediately loaded single-tooth implants placed in fresh extraction sites to that of immediately loaded single-tooth implants placed in healed sites. From the years 1997 to 1998, 26 pat...

The aim of this narrative review is to describe treatment options for the posterior regions of the mandible and the maxilla, comparing short implants vs. longer implants in an augmented bone. The dental literature was screened for treatment options enabling the placement of dental implants in posterior sites with a reduced vertical bone height in the maxilla and the mandible. Short dental impla...
