Relevant design aspects to improve the stability of titanium dental implants
(MDPI, 2020)
Post-extractional implants and immediate loading protocols are becoming much more frequent in everyday clinical practice. Given the existing literature about tapered implants, the objective of this paper ...
Influence of connection type and platform diameter on titanium dental implants fatigue: non-axial loading cyclic test analysis
(MDPI, 2020)
Two-pieces dental implants must provide stability of the implant-abutment-interface. The connection type and platform diameter could influence the biomechanical resistance and stress distribution. This ...
One-step liquid phase polymerization of HEMA by atmospheric-pressure plasma discharges for Ti dental implants
(MDPI, 2021)
Dental implants can fail due to various factors, in which bad tissue integration is believed to have a significant role. Specific properties of the implant surface, such as its chemistry and roughness, ...
Influence of the titanium implant surface treatment on the surface roughness and chemical composition
(MDPI, 2020)
The implant surface features affect the osseointegration process. Different surface treatment methods have been applied to improve the surface topography and properties. Trace of different elements may ...
Influence of implant design and under-preparation of the implant site on implant primary stability: an In vitro study
(MDPI, 2020)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of different implant sites an under-preparation sequence associated with two different implant designs on implant primary stability measured by two ...
A radiographic and clinical comparison of immediate vs. early loading (4 weeks) of implants with a new thermo-chemically treated surface: a randomized clinical trial
(MDPI, 2021)
Background: Implant dentistry has evolved over time, resulting in better treatment outcomes for both patients and clinicians. The aim of this trial was to test whether the immediate loading of implants ...
Fatigue of narrow dental implants: influence of the hardening method
(MDPI, 2020)
The use of narrow titanium dental implants (NDI) for small ridges, reduced interdental space, or missing lateral incisors can be a viable option when compared to the conventional wider dental implants. ...
Short implants (<8mm) versus longer implants (≥8mm) with lateral sinus floor augmentation in posterior atrophic maxilla: a meta-analysis of RCT's in humans
(Medicina Oral Patologia Oral y Cirugia Bucal, 2020)
Background: One of the greatest challenges that dentists face today is to rehabilitate severe atrophied alveolar ridges in partially and completely edentulous patients with implants. Despite the high ...
Immediate implant placement in molar extraction sockets: a systematic review and meta-analysis
(Springer Nature, 2020)
Background: Immediate implants are frequently employed in the anterior maxillary area. However, the installation of dental implants simultaneously with tooth extraction can also provide with benefits ...
In vitro comparison of the accuracy of four intraoral scanners and three conventional impression methods for two neighboring implants
(Public Library of Science, 2020)
Purpose: To determine whether the accuracy of two-implant model impressions taken with optical scanners was inferior to that of those taken with elastomeric materials. Materials and Methods: Impressions ...
