AIM The development of oral implant techniques and the demand for the treatment of increasingly complex cases have drawn the attention of researchers and clinicians towards those systems and materials able to promote bone regeneration. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the clinical behavior and in particular the resorption times of the material used as a filler in postextractive alveolus wit...

objective: to determine the pattern of stability changes as a reflection of early healing around single-stage roughened-surface implants in humans utilizing resonance frequency analysis (rfa). materials and methods: hundred twenty-five patients who demanded dental implants were treated with two different implant (nobel biocare replacetm and strummantm iti) systems. bone type was classified into...

Criteria for the evaluation of dental implant success are proposed. These criteria are applied in an assessment of the long-term efficacy of currently used dental implants including the subperiosteal implant, the vitreous carbon implant, the blade-vent implant, the single-crystal sapphire implant, the Tübingen implant, the TCP-implant, the TPS-screw, the ITI hollow-cylinder implant, the IMZ den...

Dental implants are widely used now-a-days for rehabilitation of partial & complete edentulous. Although many literatures regarding dental implant reported to have long term success rate, failure of dental implant is not uncommon.Peri-implant disease is characterized by an inflammatory reaction in the tissues surrounding an implant. Peri-implant disease should be diagnosed & treated as soon as ...

background and aims. resonance frequency analysis (rfa) offers a noninvasive clinical measurement of stability and osseointegration of implants; it is a useful tool to establish implant loading time. the rfa values are represented by a quantitative unit called the implant stability quotient (isq) on a scale from 1 to 100. the aim of the present study was to measure the stability of astra tech a...

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 The effect of hydroxyapatite coating of dental implants is controversial. The long-term fate of hydroxyapatite-coated implants has been the subject of some criticism. PURPOSE The aim of this retrospective study was to assess the clinical outcome of hydroxyapatite-coated cylindrical root-form endosseous Impladent dental implants (LASAK Ltd, Prague, Czech Republic) during a six-year ...

Aim of this study is to investigate.Hybrid implant has got satisfactory results in our previous various edentulous areas with inadequate bone for endosseous placement .The credibility the posterior maxilla needed be evaluated.Objectives•  To evaluate hybrid postoperatively 18 months gingival status, pain, peri-implantitis and mobility, so that it can applied maxillary spaces as an alternati...

Since, the inception of the vast field of implantology in 1969, this method still remains a popular and reliable one for the replacement of missing teeth. Over the years designs by various researchers have been introduced as well as modifications to the surface of the titanium being used. Characteristics of titanium implant surfaces have been modified by additive methods (e.g. titanium plasma s...
