Filter by:The aim of this observational study is: producing complete dental prosthesis with the aid of CAD-CAM (Computer aided design & manufacturing) - 3D printing (Stereolithography) technology - using as printable material Poli(methylmetacrylate) - PMMA - with Nano TiO2 nanoparticles composite completely characterized.
The microthreaded and platform switched implants could control the stress in the suitable range. The splint would disturb the function. So it is necessary to know whether the splinted single-unit crowns is fit for the adjacent multi-implants. Outcome variables: Splinted single-unit crowns on one side implants and non-splinted single-unit crowns on the other side Materials and method: 80-100 consecutive implants in at least 20 patients would be included for implant- supported restorations in the posterior maxilla or mandibular. All patients would be in general good health. For every patient, the same posterior teeth had lost on both sides for more than 6 months. All patients were treated by the same qualified surgeon. Prosthetics procedure would be performed by an experienced prosthodontist. The two sides were allocated to the test or the control group according to the predefined computer-generated randomization table. Clinical evaluations and radiographic analysis were performed by an oral and maxillofacial radiologist who was not aware of the type of Prosthetics technique that was used.
This study aims to compare the clinical performance of 4 mm short implants supporting cross-arch fixed reconstructions in the edentulous mandible either with a combination of two short implants as distal support and two implants of conventional length placed in the interforaminal region, or with a combination of four short implants as distal support and two interforaminal implants of conventional length.
The aim of this prospective cohort study is to compare the esthetic, clinical and patient-centered outcomes following immediate and delayed implant placement protocols.

The main purpose of the present study is to evaluate the dental implant placement using two different CBCT-derived templates and to study the related factors that affect accuracy so as to support the further clinical application of the technique. Thirty patients with partial edentulous denture are recruited. They are randomized to two groups. A radiographic guide is prepared before CT/CBCT scan. The CT/CBCT scan DICOM files are loaded in a planning program and converted into 3D computer images. A surgical template is fabricated through this virtual planning. After 6 weeks, if the implants are judged stable, the patient has the option of replacing the fixed prosthesis. Patients are recalled for oral hygiene maintenance and prosthetic controls every 6 months for the entire duration of the study.
This study will identify and enroll patients already scheduled to receive guided maxillary implant placement with palateless overdenture. Standard clinical practice will be followed for this multi-stage process. The study purpose is to evaluate the degree of satisfaction during the standard progression in order to determine at which post edentulous stage patients achieve maximum satisfaction using the Oral Health Impact Profile 49 (OHIP 49).
To investigate the prevalence and risk factors for peri-implant disease in partially edentulous patients rehabilitated with implants supported crown or bridge so as to provide evidence for clinical prevention and control.
Edentulism is often associated with a negative psychosocial impact. The concept of prosthetic rehabilitation in which a prosthesis is supported by osseointegrated implants, was first introduced in the late 1960s by Brånemark et al. and offers an interesting alternative to removable prosthesis. However, for patients with a severely atrophic maxilla or mandible, cranial bone grafting of the jaw is required to increase bone width and height necessary for implant insertion. An active collaboration between the surgeons from the Oral and Maxillofacial Department and the prosthodontist from the Department of Dentistry has been established for continuous quality improvement of the concept of (immediate/delayed) implant loading in patients requiring cranial bone grafts to augment their severely atrophic jawbone. The investigators aim to develop a prospective database registering (immediate/delayed) implant loading data of all patients eligible according to the protocol. Patient demographics, surgical, dental, prosthetic and patient satisfaction parameters are collected during consecutive visits within the framework of routine practice. Development of a database registering immediate functional loading data secondary to cranial bone-grafting of a severely atrophic jaw, will provide more information about potential patient, surgical and prosthetic factors influencing long-term biological and mechanical stability, as well as patient satisfaction. Moreover, registration of those results could function as a measurement of quality of care, and could be used for sample size calculation for future large prospective trials.
