objectives: this study sought to assess the effects of length and inclination of implants on stress distribution in an implant and terminal abutment teeth in an implant assisted-removable partial denture (rpd) using three-dimensional (3d) finite element analysis (fea).   materials and methods: in this in vitro study, a 3d finite element model of a partially dentate mandible with a distal extens...

Purpose Early operative reconstruction using titanium mesh is a technique often used for preventing sequelae after an orbital fracture. We sought to examine the utility of patient-specific molding with biomodel via virtual mirroring nonaffected side. Methods retrospectively assessed clinical and radiological outcomes fracture customized shaped on 3D-printed biomodels in 34 unilateral cases. Pre...

  Background and Objective: The concept of immediate occlusal loading with dental implants offers several advantages. In this research, the effect of type of restoration on Osseointegration rate of dental implants was histologically evaluated. Materials and Methods: Three months prior to implantation, the lower premolar teeth of 15 dogs were extracted. Then, 3 to 4 Maestro™ implants were plac...

Introduction: The survival of an implant system is affected by the choice of antirotational design, which can include an external or internal hex. Implant success also is affected by the maintenance of the crestal bone around implants. The aim of present study was to evaluate the crestal bone loss and clinical parameters related to bone loss in patients loaded with an external or internal hex 3...

background: decalcified freeze-dried bone allograft (dfdba) may have the potential to enhance bone formation around dental implants. our aim in this study was the evaluation and comparison of two types of dfdba in treatment of dehiscence defects around euroteknika ® implants in dogs.     methods: in this prospective clinical trial animal study, all mandibular premolars of three iranian dogs wer...
