Critical Analysis of the Effect of Antiresorptive Drugs on Osteonecrosis Associated With Dental Implants: An Umbrella Review.

The overview was carried out to evaluate the impact of antiresorptive drug (ARD) therapy in patients undergoing dental implant treatment who significantly experience medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) or not. A comprehensive electronic database search within the timeline of 2014-2024, restricted to the English language, was performed in database search engines like Google Scholar, Web of Science, PubMed, and Scopus. The articles were screened using the specific Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) terms and Boolean operators 'OR' and 'AND'.

Bioelectric Nerve Stimulation for Final Impression and Cameo Surface Recording for Completely Edentulous Patients: A Report of Two Cases.

Attaining the appropriate relation of the denture base with the tissues for optimum retention and support poses various challenges. Retention and support of a prosthesis depend on capturing mucosa and limiting structures in undistorted form. The impression in the geriatric population and patients with maxillary and mandibular defects poses a challenge for prosthodontists.

Effect of Guided Implant Drilling on Bone Temperature Changes During Implant Osteotomy: A Comprehensive Systematic Review.

The preparation of the implant site and the quality of the bone are crucial factors for preliminary healing following implant surgery. Therefore, any thermal or mechanical damage to the bone must be minimized during osteotomy preparation. The use of guided implant drilling is now widely employed for the precise placement of implants.
