Filter by:The goal of this cross-over clinical trial is to investigate the precision of digital implant impressions using an intraoral scanner and photogrammetry in obtaining complete-arch implant-supported scans. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Is there a difference in precision between intraoral scans and photogrammetry in obtaining digital implant scans? - Will arch perimeter and jaw type (maxilla vs. mandible) affect the precision results? Procedures: At each appointment, participants existing permanent/temporary prosthesis or healing caps were unscrewed and temporarily removed for the period of the consultation appointment. Scanbodies were screwed into their implants for the duration of the appointment. They underwent two types of digital implant impression procedures (five times each), including intraoral scan and photogrammetry. Intraoral and extraoral photography were taken. At the end of each appointment, the scanbodies were removed, and existing bridge/healing caps were reinserted. The procedures were not painful or required any form of local anesthetic Comparison group: Researchers compared the precision of intraoral scanning vs. photogrammetry to see which device provided the best precision outcomes.
This clinical trial aims to compare the performance of CAD/CAM-milled and 3D-printed full-arch implant-supported provisional restorations in patients at the Advanced Implant Prosthetics Clinic of the Complutense University of Madrid, of both sexes, over 18 years of age, edentulous upper, lower or both, whose treatment plan is at least a fixed implant-supported rehabilitation of the complete arch. The main question it aims to answer is if there are differences in the mechanical behavior and optical properties of the materials used as provisional materials in full-arch restorations on implants fabricated by CAD/CAM technology through machining or 3D printing. Participants will: - Receive milled (control material: PMMA; Multilayer PMMA block, HUGE; Shandong Huge Dental Material Corporation) or printed (test material: 3D impression resin; VarseoSmile Temp, Bego Bremer Goldschägerei Wilh. Herbst GmbH & Co. KG, Bremen) and they will be in provisional phase for 3 months doing daily life. Researchers will compare PMMA (Multilayer PMMA block, HUGE; Shandong Huge Dental Material Corporation) and the printed-resin (3D impression resin; VarseoSmile Temp, Bego Bremer Goldschägerei Wilh. Herbst GmbH & Co. KG, Bremen) to see: - Mechanical behavior and the absence of complications, fracture of the structure, material jumping or wear, loosening, or detachment. - Optical properties, initial color, and degradation of the materials used
Purpose: To compare the loss of peri-implant tissue by means of radiographic and digital analysis of a zirconia prosthesis placed immediately and delay loading. Materials and methods: 60 consecutive patients with the need for a full-arch rehabilitation were selected and divided randomly into two groups: Group A: Conventional dental extraction, placement of 6 to 8 implants. Placement of the multi-unit prosthetic attachment and finally in the same week the placement of the definitive monolithic zirconia prosthesis on implants. Group B: Conventional dental extraction, placement of 6 to 8 implants. Placement of prosthetic and provisional attachment. After 3 months, place the definitive prosthesis. Assess volumetric changes using radiographic and optical scan techniques. The number of implant failures, prosthetic incidents and bone loss around the implants will be evaluated. The data will be evaluated 3, 6, and 12 months after the operation.
Group I (control) Edentulous mandible receiving all on four fixed mandibular prosthesis using conventionally screw retained multiunit abutments. Group II (intervention) Edentulous mandible receiving all on four fixed prostheses using OT bridge attachments system. For both groups, the implant sites will be prepared aided by the surgical template. 4 implants with length 11-13 mm will be placed, two anterior implants will be aligned in an axial orientation and two posterior implants will be distally aligned according to the all-on-four concept in the inter foraminal area. Implants will be ideally placed at bone level. For both groups: After implant placement and surgical guide removal, healing abutments ( will be connected during healing periods (eight to twelve weeks). Group I ( control) After eight to twelve weeks from implant placement, multiunit abutments with appropriate heights and angulations will be connected to the implants. Group II ( intervention) After eight to twelve weeks from implant placement, narrow- and low-profile OT Equator abutment will be screwed onto the implants according to the manufacturer. marginal bone changes and prosthetic complications are the outcomes Radiographic follow up will be performed for marginal bone changes Serial of standardized digital periapical radiographs using will be taken at the time fixed prosthesis insertion (baseline), 3,6,9,12 months. Type and incidence of prosthetic complications for the prothesis for each group will be evaluated in 3, 6,9 and 12 months, these complications included: loosening or fracture of the prosthetic screw, prosthesis mobility and fracture of the prosthesis.
In dental implant restoration, available literature demonstrates the advantage of using tall abutments, with a change of diameter with respect to the implant and a conical internal connection in the abutment-implant gap. However, for multiple restorations, the abutment-prosthesis connection has not been studied in detail. The "multi-unit" systems, both standard and brand specific, have either a flat or butt joint or an cone. In any case, both are external connection systems. Recently, an internal-type abutment-prosthesis connection system has been developed. Although it is proving its usefulness in single restorations, its use in multiple restorations compared to traditional systems has not been studied. Therefore, taking into account all of the above, the present study has the overall objective of analyzing marginal bone loss (MBL) and adaptation of soft tissues by comparing a multiple prosthesis system of the "external, flat" type versus an external system of the "internal, conical" type.
Dental implants may suffer from bone loss around them, particularly at the upper portion where the prosthesis starts. The connection between both parts of the tooth restoration is key for avoiding micromovement during chewing, bacterial contamination and initiation of bone loss. Thus, investigating factors related to this bone loss in different types of implant-prosthetic connections is key for promoting better use of available therapeutics devices. In this study, we will study marginal bone levels over time as well as bacterial contamination and inflammatory markers in the peri-implant sulcus around implants with connical connection and compare them with those obtained when using implants with internal hexagonal connection. The hypothesis is that bone loss will be higher in implants with hexagonal connection associated with a pathological microbiome in the sulcus that induces a higher inflammatory response.
This study examines the effects of prosthetic treatment options applied to edentulous geriatric individuals who applied to Marmara University Faculty of Dentistry on chewing function, food consumption status, malnutrition status and oral health-related quality of life.
Objectives: Passive fit of screw retained frameworks is essential to avoid biological and mechanical failures in addition to transmission of unfavourable stresses to the bone-implant interface. However, Several factors contribute to the passive fit of screw retained prosthesis such as relative parallelism between the implants, implant number, impression material, impression technique and method of prothesis fabrication. The current study aims to evaluate the accuracy of three different impression techniques on the fit of screw retained bar splinting two inter-foraminal implants. Methods: The study presents evaluation of the passive fit of screw retained bar fabricated with three different impression techniques.
This Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up study aims to document the success and survival of the Axiom® BL X3 Implants up to 3 years after loading.
In both full and partial tooth loss, the usage of dental implants for an artificial replacement for missing teeth is a well-known and reasonable treatment modality that leads to high patient satisfaction and enhanced life quality. (1) In both full and partial tooth loss, the usage of dental implants for an artificial replacement for missing teeth is a well-known and reasonable treatment modality that leads to high patient satisfaction and enhanced life quality Because there is insufficient bone volume to support the dimensions of the implants, the horizontal deficiencies of the alveolar ridge obstruct implant-supported rehabilitation, which has an impact on the ultimate prosthetic outcome from both a functional and cosmetic standpoint (2). The split crest technique reduces treatment time, the number of surgical procedures required, and even the risk of complications for the patients, making it more readily accepted by them. It also allows dental implants to be installed in the same surgical procedure and does not require a donor area to remove the graft. (3) In this study, patients underwent rehabilitation of posterior missing teeth in the narrow mandibular ridge by dental implant after ridge splitting by osseodensification, piezosurgery, or magnetic mallet.
