Interdisciplinary management of Type 3 oligodontia: A retrospective case series.

Statement Of Problem: Type 3 oligodontia is the most dentoalveolar deficient manifestation of congenital tooth absence. There is a need to rehabilitate these children functionally and esthetically to improve quality of life.

Purpose: The purpose of this retrospective case series was to evaluate the short- and intermediate-term outcomes of the dental treatment provided in a children's hospital and to develop a sequential interdisciplinary treatment planning protocol from infancy to the completion of jaw development.

A Prospective Study of Immediately Loaded Single Implant-Retained Mandibular Overdentures: Long-Term Results with 15-Year Follow-up.

Purpose: To investigate the long-term predictability of simplifying mandibular overdenture treatment using single-stage surgery and immediate prosthetic loading of a single implant to provide a more affordable treatment option.

Materials And Methods: A total of 29 patients with a mean age of 68 years with problematic mandibular dentures were treated. A single implant (Brånemark System Mklll TiUnite, Nobel Biocare) was placed into the mandibular midline for primary stability.

A Prospective Single-Cohort Multicenter Study of an Innovative Prefabricated Three-Implant-Supported Full-Arch Prosthesis for Treatment of Edentulous Mandible: 1-year Report.

Purpose: To clinically evaluate a recently developed, standardized, three-implant-supported full-arch treatment concept for fully edentulous mandibles.

Materials And Methods: This ongoing multinational prospective cohort study is evaluating the performance of the treatment concept over 5 years in patients who were fully edentulous or had failing dentition of the mandible. The primary outcome was the cumulative survival rate of implants (CSRI).

An Innovative Implant-Supported Treatment for the Edentulous Mandible: Case Report.

When surveyed, edentulous patients commonly state that they would prefer an implant-supported restoration to conventional removable dentures. However, acceptance of implant-supported restorations remains low, primarily due to the high cost of available solutions. To reduce cost and treatment time for patients with an edentulous mandible or failing mandibular dentition, an innovative treatment concept consisting of a standardized framework and time-efficient surgical and restorative protocols was developed.

The restoration of traumatized teeth.

The restoration of a traumatized tooth may require minimally invasive or more extensive treatment options. The majority of injuries occur in the younger population, so management should consider the long-term outcome, failure and future treatment needs over the course of, often, many decades. The aim should be to provide a tooth-restoration complex that closely mimics the functional and aesthetic qualities of an intact tooth for as long as possible.
