introduction juvenile ossifying fibroma is a benign, bone-forming neoplasm with aggressive local growth that is distinguished from other fibro-osseous lesions primarily by its age of onset, clinical presentation and aggressive behavior. although a benign entity, juvenile ossifying fibroma is known to be locally aggressive and has a high tendency to recur. two distinctive microscopic patterns ha...

Introdouction: Although highly desirable outcomes and longterm survival of dental implant treatments are well documented, implant failures still occur due to various reasons. Several risk factors may impair implant survival including implant dimensions (length, diameter, and implant design), procedures, local bone density at the implant site, and patient-related risk factors such as age, smokin...

background and aims. because of compromised angulations of implants, the abutments are sometimes prepared. the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of removing one wall of the implant abutment on the retention of cement-retained crowns. materials and methods. four prefabricated abutments were attached to analogues and embedded in acrylic resin blocks. the first abutment was left ...

statement of problem: thermal injury during dental implant placement and restoration is a clinical concern as it may cause bone damage and compromise osseointegration. the threshold level for heat-induced cortical bone necrosis is 47°c for 60 seconds. objectives: to measure the amount of heat transferred to the implant-bone interface when a two-piece or one-piece abutment was prepared in vertic...

background and aim:  although there have been substantial developments in dental implant therapies, achieving good implant stability (isq >60) for implants inserted in augmented sinus sites appears to be challenging in comparison with non-augmented sites due to the high prevalence of bone resorption in posterior regions of maxilla. this study aimed to evaluate and compare the time required to a...

objectives: phonemic awareness skills have a significant impact on children speech and language. the purpose of this study was investigating the phonemic awareness skills of children with cochlear implant and normal hearing peers in primary school. methods: phonemic awareness subscales of phonological awareness test were administered to 30 children with cochlear implantation at the first to six...

Implant supported dental prostheses are increasingly used in practice. The aim of this narrative review is to present the influence transmucosal surface prosthetic abutment and implant on peri-implant tissue. article describes causes bone loss around implant. Moreover, properties different materials compared discussed. advantages, disadvantages, biomechanical concept implant-abutment connection...

Background and Aim: The mismatch of the implant-abutment connection can produce instant stress and microleakage which result in mechanical and biological complications. This study aimed to investigate the influence of GapSeal® as a sealing material on the extent of microgap and microleakage at the external hexagon implant platform following cyclic loading. Materials and Methods: Sixteen implan...

introduction: implant bed preparation with laser is taken into consideration owing to the increased interest in use of lasers in hard tissue surgery. the purpose of this study is to determine the deviations in the position and inclination between the planned and prepared implant beds with erbium, chromium doped yttrium scandium gallium garnet (er,cr: ysgg) laser using stereolithographic (sla) s...
