Clinical and radiographic outcomes of zirconia dental implants - a clinical case series study
(MDPI, 2022)
The purpose of this clinical series was to evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcomes of 20 zirconia dental implants, with a minimum follow-up of two years. Patients with at least one zirconia ...
Effects of different undersizing site preparations on implant stability
(MDPI, 2020)
As immediate loading protocols are becoming more frequent, the primary stability of implants has become an essential criterion for the osseointegration of dental implants. Based on this, the objective ...
Intra-osseous heat generation during implant bed preparation with static navigation: multi-factor in vitro study
(John Wiley & Sons, 2021)
Objectives: To compare the intra-osseous temperature reached during bone drilling for dental implant placement using open versus closed static surgical guides and evaluate the influence of bone density, ...
Polyethylene glycol pulsed electrodeposition for the development of antifouling coatings on titanium
(MDPI, 2020)
Titanium dental implants are widely used for the replacement of damaged teeth. However, bacterial infections at the interface between soft tissues and the implant can impair the functionality of the ...
Citric acid passivation of titanium dental implants for minimizing bacterial colonization impact
(MDPI, 2021)
Surface topography and physical-chemical properties usually play a key-role in both osseointegration improvement and bacterial colonization reduction over the surface of dental implants. The aim of this ...
A non-interventional study documenting use and success of tissue level implants
(MDPI, 2020)
Numerous randomised controlled multicentric studies have investigated various responses to different treatment modalities with dental implants. These studies do not always show the results of daily ...
Association between smoking and peri-implant diseases: a retrospective study
(John Wiley & Sons, 2023)
Objectives: To determine the association between tobacco and peri-implant diseases in a sample of patients who had received implant-supported restorations in a university dental clinic. Furthermore, the ...
Defect angle as prognostic indicator in the reconstructive therapy of peri-implantitis
(John Wiley & Sons, 2023)
Objective: To analyze the influence of the characteristics of bone defects caused by peri-implantitis on the clinical resolution and radiographic bone gain following reconstructive surgery. Methods: ...
Selecting biomaterials in the reconstructive therapy of peri-implantitis
(Wiley, 2023-09)
Peri-implantitis is a pathogenic inflammatory condition characterized by progressive bone loss and clinical inflammation that may compromise the stability of dental implants. Therapeutic modalities have ...
Influence of titanium surface residual stresses on osteoblastic response and bacteria colonization
(MDPI, 2024)
Grit basting is the most common process applied to titanium dental implants to give them a roughness that favors bone colonization. There are numerous studies on the influence of roughness on osseointegration, ...
