Abstract Objectives: This prospective study was intended to evaluate the overall deviation in a clinical treatment setting provide for quantification of potential impairment safety and reliability with computer‐assisted, template‐guided transgingival implantation. Material methods: The patient population enrolled (male/female=10/8) presented partially dentate edentulous maxillae mandibles. Overall, 86 implants were placed by two experienced dental surgeons strictly following NobelGuide ™...
Graft consolidation follows a gradient that reflects the properties of bone substitutes at sites sinus augmentation. Here we present an analytical method to investigate process graft taking distance from maxillary host into account.We therefore evaluated histological specimens, 6 and 12 weeks after minipigs was augmented with Bio-Oss((R)), deproteinized bovine mineral, Ostim((R)), aqueous paste synthetic nanoparticular hydroxyapatite. A curve drawn represents changes in histomorphometric...
Abstract Objective The first objective of this pilot study was to evaluate the impact hydrophilicity on early phases osseointegration. second compare two hydrophilic implant surfaces with different geometries, surface roughness, and technologies achieving hydrophilicity. Material methods Twelve weeks after extraction, all four quadrants nine minipigs received three dental implants, alternating between microrough ( INICELL SLA ctive) a conventional hydrophobic surface. After 5, 10, 15 days...
Background Intrabony temperature increase is not only dependent on shearing energy and mechanical friction between bone surgical drill but also related to heat capacity thermal conductivity of the surrounding applied instrument. Thus time occurrence highest rise can be expected after process osteotomy, potentially affecting osseointegration. Purpose The aim this study was evaluate changes during withdrawing processes osteotomies. Materials Methods An overall 160 automated intermittent...
Abstract Background The first year of prosthetic loading is crucial to peri‐implant bone levels; however, contributing factors are yet barely understood. Purpose purpose the study investigate influence patient‐, implant‐, and prosthetic‐related parameters on marginal resorption in partially edentulous patients within loading. Materials Methods This retrospective multifactorial analysis involved following influencing factors: patient gender age, implant diameter, location neck design,...
To determine the effect of magnetron-sputtered calcium phosphate coating implants on later stages osseointegration in a non-human primate model.Eighteen and 20 with 0.1 microm amorphous turned surface, respectively, were inserted anterior upper lower jaw adult primates. Following 7.5 months healing period, one part remained submerged position. The other was connected to abutments allow peri-implant inflammation occur. After another months, histologic histomorphometric analysis area...
Abstract Objectives: This prospective clinical study was designed to examine the healing process during first 12 months after sinus grafting (SG) with autogenous culture‐expanded bone cells (ABC) and bovine mineral (BBM) histomorphometrically radiologically. Material methods: Twenty‐two sinuses of patients (mean age 56.2±9.3 years) were grafted. Four weeks before, SG biopsies obtained a trephine burr isolated expanded. Every grafted BBM ABC. After 6 months, biopsy taken from each implants (...
Abstract Objectives The study was designed to evaluate the clinical use of NobelGuide ™ concept over a follow‐up period 12 months with respect implant success and survival rates, development soft tissue condition recording potential surgical prosthetic complications. In addition, radiological assessment peri‐implant bone levels performed at 1‐year post‐implant placement. Material methods Thirty patients (male/female = 15/15) partially dentate edentulous mandibles maxillae were included. All...
Purpose The study aims to evaluate the accuracy of NobelGuideTM (Medicim/Nobel Biocare, Göteborg, Sweden) concept maximally reducing influence clinical and surgical parameters. Moreover, was compare validate two validation procedures versus a reference method. Material Methods Overall, 60 implants were placed in 10 artificial edentulous mandibles according protocol. For merging pre- postoperative DICOM data sets, three different fusion methods (Triple Scan Technique, Validation software,...
Abstract Purpose The aim of this study is to assess the impact insertion torque and implant neck design on peri‐implant bone levels gain insights into dynamic crestal tissue alterations by radiological, clinical, biochemical examinations. Material Methods In prospective trial, a total 84 implants (four in each patient) interforaminal region 21 edentulous mandibles were randomly alternated according split‐mouth design. Implant placement was performed using different torques (≤20 Ncm vs >50...
Thanks to their predictably high-success rates, dental implants have gained a firm place among the treatment options for edentulous and partially dentate patients in state-of-the-art dentistry. As result, need high-level basic continued training implant dentistry is increasing. The present questionnaire-based survey was designed shed light on current state of training, any points criticism standardized format Europe.Between July November 2006, 14-item questionnaire sent 37 opinion leaders 29...
Abstract: The purpose of this study was to determine the peri‐implant soft tissue dimension (PSD) and bone level (BL) dental implants with different designs surface modifications after functional loading without oral hygiene. Three types were placed in posterior jaws adult baboons, three same design per quadrant, fitted fixed partial dentures. After 1.5 years plaque accumulation, all showed severe mucositis comparatively high BL. A histomorphometric evaluation sulcus depth (SD), junctional...
Evaluate the 5-year safety and efficacy of a narrow-diameter (3.0 mm) implant that was immediately provisionalized with single crown in maxillary lateral incisor or mandibular central area.
Abstract: The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical relevance horizontal distraction osteogenesis (DO) with bone micro screws for reconstructing knife‐edge alveolar crests before implant placement. Horizontal DO performed in upper and lower seven patients resorption class IV according Cawood Howell. After osteotomy a 1‐week latency period, were reset daily expansions by 0.5 mm. Dental implants placed distracted area following consolidation period 12 weeks. Computer tomography...
This study aimed to assess levels of biomarkers associated with inflammation and tissue destruction in peri-implant crevicular fluid (PICF) implants provided customized or standard healing abutments during early implant healing.Thirty were placed 22 patients partial posterior edentulism. Subsequently, test group (n=15) received one-piece titanium that fabricated using computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM). Control abutments. PICF collection standardized periapical...
Background Narrow diameter implants are primarily intended to rehabilitate the lateral maxillary incisors and central mandibular because these can fit in limited space between adjacent natural tooth roots while offering an optimized emergence profile of restorations highly esthetic locations. However, few studies have addressed how such fare demanding protocols as immediate provisionalization. Aim/Hypothesis In this interim report, we present 3-year bone remodeling outcome data from open,...
As oral rehabilitation of tooth agenesis usually begins at a very young age, it is important to plan the therapy in advance order prepare patient for final treatment after end skeletal and dental growth. The diverse patterns require interdisciplinary adapted individual factors like patient's number missing teeth, alveolar-bone development. aim present high volume single-center study was provide an overview management patients with agenesis, terms approaches, associations, long-term implant...
