A Biomechanical Analysis of the Influence of the Morfology of the Bone Blocks Grafts on the Transfer of Tension or Load to the Soft Tissue by Means of the Finite Elements Method.

Edentulism produces resorption of alveolar bone processes, which can complicate placement of dental implants. Guided bone regeneration techniques aim to recover the volume of bone. These treatments are susceptible to the surgical technique employed, the design of the autologous block or the tension of the suture.

One Abutment One Time: A Multicenter, Prospective, Controlled, Randomized Study.

: (PRIMARY) Assess the changes in bone level (6 and 12 months after implant placement) between the test (definitive abutment (DEF)) and control (healing abutment (HEA)) groups. (SECONDARY) Assess the changes in bone level (6 and 12 months after implant placement) between the 1 mm high abutment group and 2 mm abutment group. Evaluate changes in implant stability recorded with analysis of the resonance frequency (RFA) Osstell system, at 6 and 12 months after implant placement, between the control group (HEA) and test (DEF).

A Non-Interventional Study Documenting Use and Success of Tissue Level Implants.

Numerous randomised controlled multicentric studies have investigated various responses to different treatment modalities with dental implants. These studies do not always show the results of daily practice as they are performed under controlled and strict clinical conditions. This multicentric, non-interventionist trial aimed to document the behaviour of implants when used in daily dental practice, without inclusion or exclusion criteria.

Influence of a Novel Surface of Bioactive Implants on Osseointegration: A Comparative and Histomorfometric Correlation and Implant Stability Study in Minipigs.

Purpose: The objective of this study was to assess the influence of a novel surface of dental implants (ContacTi) on the osseointegration process in a minipig model. The surface was compared with other existing surfaces on the market (SLA and SLActive) by employing bone implant contact analysis (BIC) and implant stability.

Method: Twelve minipigs were used with prior authorisation from an ethics committee.

Effectiveness of a new dental implant bioactive surface: histological and histomorphometric comparative study in minipigs.

Objectives: The objective of this study was to assess, by histomorphometric analysis, the degree of bone apposition on two types of dental implant's surfaces: a novel implant that combines AlO abrasive particle blasting with thermochemical treatment (ContacTi), compared to a standard surface treatment obtained by sandblasting and acid etching (shot blasting).

Materials And Methods: Twelve minipigs were used, placing the studied implants in the maxillae, and divided into three groups according to the time of sacrifice: 2, 4, and 8 weeks after implant placement. Histological and histomorphometric analyses were performed following standardized tissue polymerization, cutting, and staining and examined under optical and high-resolution electron microscope.

Assessment of Osstell ISQ's reliability for implant stability measurement: a cross-sectional clinical study.

Unlabelled: Resonance frequency analysis (RFA) allows assess implant stability by measuring implant oscillation frequency on the bone. RFA is an objective and non-invasive method for implant stability measurement, although scarce evidence has been provided so far on its reliability.

Objective: Assess the Osstell ISQ system's reliability (i.

Resonance frequency analysis-reliability in third generation instruments: Osstell mentor®.

Unlabelled: Few studies assess repeatability and reproducibility in registers of resonance frequency analysis (a value of dental implant stability).

Objective: Few studies assess repeatability and reproducibility in resonance frequency analyses (implant stability evaluation). This study is aimed at assessing reliability (repeatabilty and reproducibility) in the Osstell Mentor® system using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) as the statistical method.
