Knowing that osteoporosis is a metabolic disease that could decrease dental implant success and survival, the purpose of this review was to gather information on the characteristics of implant osseointegration in animal models of induced osteoporosis. By pointing out the role of some factors that could improve the success rate in these situations, this study aimed to enhance the knowledge about this process that can be further translated to clinical designs.

Long-term data on the use of implants as surveyed crowns for implant-assisted removable partial dentures (IARPDSCs) are limited. This study evaluated the long-term outcomes and assessed the risk factors associated with marginal bone loss (MBL) in IARPDSCs.

The goal of successful implant placement is to maintain a long-term stable marginal peri-implant bone level (MBL). This retrospective study investigated the MBL of reduceddiameter implants (RDI). The implants were analyzed in different indication in the context of various surgical and prosthetic treatment strategies using heterogeneous data from a private practice. Mixed model analysis was used to process the heterogeneous data structure. This method has not been a standard method of data analysis in implantology, and it shows considerable advantages over conventional variance analyses regarding data integration from outpatient practices.

This study evaluates the impact of metal artifacts in cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) on the accuracy of static and dynamic computer-assisted implant surgery (CAIS) techniques.

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) poses a significant global health concern, with approximately one in two affected individuals remaining undiagnosed. The failure to diagnose or inadequately control DM can lead not only to systemic complications but also to decreased dental implant survival rates, increased marginal bone loss, and increased susceptibility to peri-implantitis. This study aims to evaluate glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels in patients who have not been diagnosed with DM but exhibit oral DM symptoms prior to dental implant surgery.

To assess the efficacy and safety of a sticky dual-phase porcine-derived bone substitute, compared to a similar non-adhesive graft, in addressing induced perforations of the Schneider membrane during sinus lift using a within-subject design rabbit model.

To evaluate how implant analog design and printing layer thickness affect the linear and angular accuracy of implant analogs in additively manufactured casts, comparing with conventional implant analogs in stone casts.

Implant-supported overdentures have been an effective treatment method for edentulous mandibles. However, the loading time after implant placement is still controversial. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcome of implant-supported overdentures using telescopic crowns for the treatment of edentulous patients with immediate loading protocol.

The development of a successful bone grafting technology with cohesive and adhesive properties has been an elusive goal for dental and orthopedic researchers. Tetracalcium phosphate combined with phosphoserine (TTCP-PS) is a synthetic, injectable, cohesive, self-setting, mineral-organic wet-field adhesive. The objective of this study was to evaluate four formulations of TTCP-PS in comparison to the conventional grafting materials, Bioglass and deproteinized cancellous bovine bone with a bioresorbable collagen membrane in standardized defects created in the angle of the rat mandible. Microcomputed tomography and histomorphometry were utilized to evaluate bone replacement with each of these materials after in vivo residence of either 4 or 12 weeks. The results of this study demonstrate that specific TTCP-PS formulations can form bone comparable to conventional materials in an osteopromotive mechanism but with the advantage of having cohesive and adhesive properties.

To evaluate the fracture load of monolithic zirconia crowns with implant screw holes, focusing on variations in occlusal and axial thicknesses, and to assess the interaction between these variables.

developing customized titanium specimens, with innovative surfaces, is a suitable strategy to overcome implant failure. Additionally, a faster and efficient osteogenic commitment assists tissue regeneration. To investigate the interplay between inflammation and differentiation upon implantation, Dental Pulp Stem Cells (DPSCs) were cultured on 3D-printed titanium owning an internal open cell form, administering osteogenic factors by a liposomal formulation (LipoMix) compared to traditional delivery of differentiation medium (DM).

Osseointegration of implants is significant in determining implant success. Factors influencing osseointegration include the good hydrophilicity (wettability) of the implant surface.

Evaluation of seating accuracy of interim crowns for the immediate restoration of immediate implants (I-Imp) and delayed implants (D-Imp) placed via static computer-assisted implant surgery (sCAIS).

This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate the clinical outcomes of xenogeneic bone blocks (XBB) used for lateral ridge augmentation, specifically focusing on bone gain, graft survival, and implant survival.

The aim of this study was to examine and compare the mechanical success of customized computer aided design and manufacturing (CAD-CAM) and prefabricated abutments and screws before and after cyclic loading, through measuring removal torque values.

The study investigated the cumulative survival rate (CSR) and marginal bone loss (MBL) of single implants immediately placed and restored with two-unit cantilevered fixed dental prostheses after extraction of two adjacent mandibular incisors with a compromised periodontal condition.

The objective of this study was to examine the variables that influence the stability of secondary orthodontic anchoring miniscrews after the occurrence of initial installation failure. The secondary insertion was defined as reinserted, which was inserted to the orthotopic (i.e., inserted between the roots of the original two adjacent teeth with the mesiodistal, height and insertion angle slightly altered) and ectopic (i.e., inserted between neighboring tooth roots).

To assess the healing process of the extraction socket and the dimensional changes that occur after alveolar ridge preservation utilizing a polylactide-co-glycolide scaffold (PLGA).
