Hybrid Ceramics Cementation Protocols: Scope Review.

Background: Compared to high modulus repair materials such as zirconia and alumina, hybrid polymer-ceramic materials have lower stress concentrations in the tooth structure and bonding interface. The aim of this study is to evaluate viable cementation protocols through an integrative review and meta-analysis.

Material And Methods: This systematic review was based on the PRISMA criteria.

The Influence of Genetics and Gene Polymorphism on Biological Complications for Dental Implant Survival: A Review.

The objective of this review is to expose the main genetic changes and genetic polymorphisms that may or may not be associated with greater susceptibility to reduced survival of dental implants and, consequently, to their loss. Case-control studies that fully portrayed the specific types of genetic polymorphisms that may be associated with dental implant failure were included by searching in the PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases from 2010 to 2023. The following descriptors and their combinations in English were used to search for articles: "dental implants," "bone genes," "genetics," "polymorphism genetics," "genetic risk factor," and "interleukin.

What Is the Survival Rate of Implants Loaded Immediately with a Branemark Protocol Prosthesis? A Review.

The aim of this review was to determine the survival rate of implants loaded immediately with a Branemark protocol prosthesis. An electronic search was performed in the PubMed/MEDLINE database from 2006 to February 2024, using a combination of Medical Subject Headings descriptors: "completely edentulous" and "immediate loading." Human clinical articles in English that evaluated the survival rate of implants loaded immediately with a Branemark protocol prosthesis after placement in the bone were included.

Evaluation of Microstrain in the Regions Surrounding Morse Taper and External Hexagon Implants.

Objective:  The aim of this study was to compare the Morse taper (MT) + titanium base (Ti-Base) abutment with the external hexagon (EH) + Ti-Base abutment by using the strain gauge method in the mesial, distal, and apical-buccal areas around these types of implants.

Materials And Methods:  This study investigated two groups, MT and EH, each comprising five polyurethane samples with a dental implant (3.75 × 11.

Influence of torque and bone type on stability quotient of two implant platforms: a clinical trial.

The objective of this study was to analyze the influence of insertion torque, bone type, and peri-implant bone loss on implant stability quotient (ISQ) of cylindrical external hexagon (EH) and Morse Taper (MT) implants. Forty-four single implants were placed in the edentulous areas of 20 patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Immediately after implant placement (t1) and after osseointegration (four and six months for mandible and maxilla, respectively) (t2), insertion torque, resonance frequency, and peri-implant bone loss were measured using probing depths and digital periapical radiography.
