Objectives: To assess the rate of biologic complications and implant survival in edentulous patients treated with implant-supported fixed complete dental prostheses (IFCDPs) after a mean observation period of 5.2 years (range: 1-12 years).
Materials And Methods: A single-visit clinical and radiographic examination was performed to assess types and rates of biologic complications with ceramic IFCDPs (Group 1) and metal-resin IFCDPs (Group 2).
The surgical and prosthodontic management of patients with multiple missing teeth in the anterior maxilla can be challenging. The purpose of this clinical report is to illustrate the 2-year outcome after immediate implant placement in unintentional close proximity with the adjacent root. Following uneventful healing, the definitive implant rehabilitation was done with a modified monolithic zirconia framework and porcelain veneers bonded to the framework.

Six different adhesives were used: Xeno IV, Clearfil S3 Bond, Adper Prompt-L-Pop, AdheSE One, Bond Force, and Optibond (control). Ninety primary teeth were prepared by wet grinding with a 320-grit silicon carbide paper on a polishing wheel running at 110 RPM.
