Filter by:The aim of the present prospective study was to investigate after a 2-year of follow-up any influence of the surgical technique, manual or digitally guided, on peri-implant marginal bone levels stability in implants placed 1 mm sub-crestally. Patients were treated by means of platform-switched implants provided with a 5 degrees internal conical connection and supporting single screw-retained fixed crowns. Marginal bone level (MBL) measured at prosthesis installation (t0) at 1 (t1), 2 (t2) and at 3 years of follow-up visit (t3) were considered. MBL change from t0 to t3 was investigated. The distance between the implant neck and the first radiographically detected bone to implant contact was considered to evaluate the bone loss. Two groups were considered: Test Group (GD) for implant sites treated with a digitally guided surgery procedure. Control Group (FH) for implants surgically placed without digitally guided surgery, respectively. All the procedures were performed by an experienced operator. Additionally, for both groups MBL changes were correlated to different supra-crestal soft tissue height (STH) amounts: less than 3 and ≥ 3 millimeters, respectively. Peri-implant soft tissue parameters such as probing depth (PPD), modified Sulcus Bleeding Index (mBI) and modified Plaque Index (mPI), were assessed for all the restorations included.
The biggest challenge of oral rehabilitation is the replacement of lost structures and the restoration of their function and esthetics, focusing on matching a healthy tooth. Traditional complete dentures, implant (retained, supported) overdentures, and complete implant-supported fixed prostheses are all alternatives to the rehabilitation of the mandibular arch. The aim of this study was to compare BioHPP used as a skeletal substructure for hybrid (implant fixed, detachable) prostheses versus BioHPP bar supporting and retaining by using radiographic tracing to the marginal bone height changes around the implants, patient satisfaction can be improved.
The aim of the study is to evaluate in patients with history of periodontitis the clinical, microbiological and radiological outcomes of implants with a modified implant design consisting on a machined surface in the coronal third of the implant. In this 12-month, parallel-arm, randomized controlled trial, patients with history of treated periodontitis and in need of dental implants for single-unit or short edentulous spaces (i.e. two implants) will be randomly assigned to a test group (implants with a hybrid surface, presenting a machined coronal third; HS) or a control group (conventional moderately rough implants; RS). Implants will be restored 3 months later with fixed implant supported reconstructions. Radiological, clinical, microbiological and patient-related outcome measures (PROMs) will be assessed 3, 6 and 12 months after the prosthetic installation.
