Introduction: The selection criteria of implant is very critical. Implant length determines the mechanics of osseointegration.
Objective: To investigate the influence of dental implant length on early failure rates, osseointegration success, peri-implant bone loss, and patient-reported outcomes.
A 70-year-old woman who was a known diabetic and had hypertension presented with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction. A coronary angiogram showed a significant lesion in the mid-portion of right coronary artery (RCA) followed by distal cut-off.

In this study, we conducted a comparative evaluation of CBCT and MRI in diagnosing TMJ disorders and assessing their association with periodontal health. We recruited a sample of 100 patients presenting with TMJ symptoms and divided them into two groups.

Alfa-ferrite (α-FeO) nanoparticles with minimal multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) as low as 5 weight % in combination with variable concentrations of graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) are used as fillers in low-density polyethylene (LDPE) polymer matrix. Nanofillers and the polymer matrix are characterized by various techniques such as XRD, SEM, color mapping, EDAX, TGA, etc.

The Mobile-app was made available at Google play store; the app was downloaded and instructions to use were thought to patients by the research team during hospitalization in the study group. A total of two hundred patients with ischemic heart disease who underwent PTCA were enrolled into the study.
