Objectives: The present systematic review aimed to evaluate if cortical bone perforation is effective in enhancing periodontal surgery and guided bone regeneration (GBR) in humans.
Materials And Methods: Electronic search was performed in PubMed, Scopus and Cochrane CENTRAL up to October 31st, 2023. Grey literature was also searched.
The aim of this study was to systematically revise the state of art of the accuracy of digital and conventional impressions in clinical full-arch scenarios. Electronic and manual searches were conducted up to December 2024. Only trials comparing the accuracy of digital versus conventional impressions were selected by two independent reviewers.

Methods: The present systematic review was reported according to the indications of the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analysis (PRISMA) incorporating network meta-analysis, and the protocol was registered with PROSPERO (CRD42023487245). The PRISMA systematic search, without restriction on language or initial date, was carried out using electronic databases: MEDLINE (PubMed), Scopus and central register of controlled trials.
: The influence of the quantity and quality of peri-implant soft tissue on implant health and long-term maintenance is controversial. This consensus aimed to assess the importance of peri-implant soft tissue by analyzing four aspects: the role of keratinized mucosa (KM), the efficacy of specific collagen matrix, the influence of abutment material, and soft-tissue thickness. : Active members of the Italian Academy of Osseointegration (IAO) participated in the consensus.

- The study aimed to explore how serum vitamin D (25(OH)D) levels affect the resorption of alveolar bone and the regeneration of the alveolar space after tooth extraction in 14 adults.
- Patients underwent tooth extraction and guided bone regeneration using porcine graft material, followed by bone volume assessments using digital models and CT scans over four months.
- Results indicated that while all patients experienced bone volumetric changes post-extraction, those with lower vitamin D levels had disorganized bone regeneration, though the overall influence of serum vitamin D on bone volume changes was not significant.
