Interproximal contact loss between implant-supported restorations and adjacent natural teeth: A retrospective cross-sectional study of 83 restorations with an up to 10-year follow-up.

Statement Of Problem: Interproximal contact loss between implant-supported restorations and adjacent natural teeth is a frequently encountered complication that could negatively affect surrounding tissues and/or patient satisfaction with treatment. The effect of interproximal contact loss on peri-implant tissue health and patient awareness of food impaction is currently unknown.

Purpose: The purpose of this retrospective cross-sectional study was to explore the effect of interproximal contact loss on peri-implant tissue health and determine whether interproximal contact loss leads to increased patient awareness of food impaction around the affected area.

Clinical and Patient-Reported Outcomes of Single Posterior Implant-Supported Restorations Completed by Predoctoral Students: A Retrospective Study with Up to 10 Years of Follow Up.

Purpose: To assess clinical outcomes of screw-retained implant-supported restorations as well as patient satisfaction and Oral Health-related Quality of Life (OHQoL), when treatment is performed in an academic setting by supervised predoctoral students.

Materials And Methods: Ninety patients (n = 129 restorations) consented to participate in the study. The mean follow-up period was 4.
