Loading of dental implants immediately after placement is an important attribute for the patients receiving the implants, but may induce a failure in the osseointegration of the implant. Even though the loading required to induce such failures is currently unknown, it is estimated that the osseointegration may fail if an implant is luxated in bone by more than 50 μm. Therefore, the ability to m...

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...

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...

The level of bone crest surrounding the implant is of utmost significance to determine osseointegrated implant success, as preservation of marginal bone height is highly important for long-term dental implant survival. Various approaches have been described in the literature to prevent the crestal bone loss, including platform switching, non-submerged approach, scalloped implants, implant desig...

The present work is a revision of the processes occurring in osseointegration of titanium dental implants according to different types of surfaces -namely, polished surfaces, rough surfaces obtained from subtraction methods, as well as the new hydroxyapatite biomimetic surfaces obtained from thermochemical processes. Hydroxyapatite's high plasma-projection temperatures have proven to prevent th...

OBJECTIVE The goal of this clinical study was to evaluate dental implant survival rates using the concept of a nonfunctional, immediate loading protocol with nonsplinted dental implants in the grafted maxillary sinus during a 52-week period. Random histomorphological and histomorphometric analysis was completed to evaluate the early healing effect of platelet rich plasma (PRP) and 50% autogenou...

BACKGROUND The feasibility of implant treatment in patients after oral ablative tumor surgery and defect reconstruction has not yet been investigated in terms of the requisite high standards of success assessment. A report on this topic must address not only implant survival but implant health, bone response, soft tissue health, failure pattern, and time of failure, as well. METHODS From June...

statement of the problem in recent decades, immediate implant placement has been proposed to eliminate undesirable consequences of conventional methods of delayed placement. in addition, because of the nature of this treatment method, a higher risk of complications such as infection and also higher failures rates may be expected purpose the aim of this study was to compare clinical outcomes of ...

Full arch implant-supported prostheses following Branemark protocol are widely used for oral rehabilitation of people with edentulous jaws and associated to the full upper conventional prosthesis. Their indication requires that the dental surgeon be prepared for prosthetic-surgical approach and planning. Therefore, this work aims to present the planning and execution of a lower arch implant-sup...

The esthetics and functional integrity of the periodontal tissue may be compromised by dental loss. Immediate implants became a viable option to maintain the periodontal architecture because of their anatomic compatibility with the dental socket and the possibility of eliminating local contamination. This article describes the procedure of immediate implant placement in the anterior maxilla rep...
