Prevention of peri-implantitis involves the early diagnosis peri-implant mucositis. This article presents a protocol hygienic maintenance in different implant prosthetic scenarios: single crown, fixed partial prosthesis, full-arch, and overdentures. Others clinical conditions have to be taken into consideration: patient compliance; history periodontitis; implants placed augmented bone; short, z...

Abstract Overdenture is a type of treatment suitable for subtotal and complete edentulous patients characterized by making total prosthesis, with the mucosal face embedding remaining teeth (remaining roots) or dental implants. In this material we will try to present some practical aspects, regarding retained overdenture magnetic systems fixed in roots at level arches.

PURPOSE To report on the effect of immediate implant loading with fixed prostheses compared to early and conventional loading on implant and prosthesis survival, failure, and complications. MATERIALS AND METHODS An electronic and manual search was conducted to identify randomized controlled clinical trials (RCTs) as well as prospective and retrospective studies involving rough surface implant...

We found few references in the dental literature on implant rehabilitation of patients with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia and only 1 case on zygomatic fixations and maxillary prosthesis in a patient with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia. Two zygomatic fixations were placed according to the sinus slot technique, together with 3 implants in the anterior maxillary region. After 6 months, an u...

The dental literature supports the many benefits of dental implant-supported prostheses for the fully edentulous arch.1 These benefits include increased chewing ability, bone preservation, sharpened phonetics, and an improved psychological outlook for an edentulous patient. Treatment planning for dental implants is a multidisciplinary process that takes into account many areas of dentistry and ...
