Background: Full-arch immediate loading rehabilitations are now a widely used rehabilitation method that guarantees predictable medium- and long-term results. Numerous factors can influence its success and stability in the medium and long term. Among these the implant-abutment connection seems to play an important role, however there is still little information on which is the most suitable in this type of treatment.

Purpose: To investigate the long-term implant survival rate and marginal bone loss (MBL) of implants with different variables associated over an observational period of at least 20 years.
Materials And Methods: Patients with at least one implant placed prior to 2001 were recalled and visited. Data on implant macro-design, prosthetic aspects, site distribution, and patient-related factors were collected.
The present study aimed to investigate the effect of HA in improving post-extraction socket healing in subjects with diabetes mellitus (DM) type 2. DM patients requiring bilateral extraction of the homologous teeth were visited at the C.I.

Materials And Methods: One hundred grade-5 titanium models were used, each composed of two surfaces simulating a semiprecision attachment for overdenture and its housing in the framework. Samples were cemented using two different resin cements (SoloCem and OT-Cem).
