Purpose: The design of the implant-abutment complex is thought to be responsible for marginal bone loss (MBL) and might affect the condition of the peri-implant tissues. This the present study aimed to evaluate the influence of the implant-abutment complex on MBL and the peri-implant tissues in partially edentulous patients treated with dental implants and determine the most advantageous design.

Materials And Methods: A total of ninety-one endosseous implants with different designs of implant-abutment complex [tissue level-TL (n = 30), platform switch-PS (n = 18), and platform match-PM (n = 43)] were reviewed for MBL, Probing Pocket Depth (PPD) and Bleeding on Probing (BoP).

The achievement of sufficient implant stability in poor quality bone seems to be a challenge. Most manufacturers develop special dental implants, which are claimed to show higher stability even in very soft bone. The aim of this experimental study was to compare two recently introduced dental implants with differing thread designs.

Objective: This study aimed to assess the effect of reinforcement, denture base thickness, and acrylic resin types on dynamic and static fracture strength in mandibular implant overdentures with bar attachment.

Materials And Methods: One hundred and eight experimental mandibular implant overdentures with bar attachments were fabricated in three main groups, namely unreinforced (control: C), reinforced with unidirectional glass fibers (FR), and Co-Cr cast metal (MR). Each group included denture bases of 2-, 3-, and 4-mm thicknesses and produced with conventional (CA) and high-impact acrylic (HIA) resins.
